Hundred Zhang Rock

Hundred Zhang Rock is located in Xiaoqiao Town in the southern part of the county. Its ridgeline extends to areas such as Dikou, Yushan, and Nanya towns, and is a branch of the Jiufeng Mountain Range. It runs from east to west, featuring majestic terrain on the eastern side and continuous peaks on the western side, with slopes mostly exceeding 35 degrees. The area is rich in granite, with an average elevation of 800 meters and a highest point of 1,335.4 meters. It is the highest point in the southern part of the city, serving as the watershed between the Xiaoqiao Stream and the Dikou Stream. It helps block the northward advance of summer typhoons and the southward flow of winter northwest winds.

Jian'ou City is located in the low mountainous and hilly region along the southeast coast, with higher terrain in the southeast and lower in the southwest. The surrounding area is encircled by medium and low mountains with elevations of over 500 meters. The central and western parts consist of river valley plains, hills, and bead-like intermontane basins, primarily centered around the Jianxi and Songxi rivers, forming a landscape mainly shaped by water erosion. The city’s average elevation is 453.55 meters, with Chen Mountain in the east being the highest at 1,822.2 meters, and Fangcun in Nanya Town in the south being the lowest at 68 meters.
