Introduction to Hushan Zhiyu

Hushan causes rain, one of the "Twenty-Four Scenic Spots of Putian". Hugong Mountain is located in Xindu Town, Licheng District, Putian City. It is shaped like a pot and is named after its shape. It is 710.5 meters above sea level. It is a majestic mountain. It rises from the vast Xinghua Plain and can be seen for hundreds of miles. Its majestic appearance has become the symbol of Putian since ancient times. 1. Hugong Mountain is a natural rainmeter and meteorological observatory. Because the mountain is close to the bay and the mountain is abrupt, in spring and summer, the warm and humid ocean airflow is blocked by it, and the temperature drops sharply at night, forming clouds and fog that envelope the mountain. If the clouds dissipate and the fog disperses in the morning, and the outline of Hugong Mountain is clear, it is a sign of a clear sky; if the clouds pass through the fog in the morning, and accumulate more and more, the small water droplets in the cumulonimbus clouds will turn into raindrops and fall. This is the unique meteorological landscape - "Hushan causes rain".
