Where is the Flame Mountain in The Journey to the West now?

On the northern edge of Turpan Basin, there is a mountain range with a length of100km from east to west and a width of10km from north to south, with an average height of about 500m. It is not only as warm as fire, but also its mountain structure and color are like burning flames. Ancient books called it "Chishi Mountain", and in the Tang Dynasty it was called "volcano" because of its heat.

Uygur language calls it "Qizil Tage" (meaning Hongshan), which is a red bed landform composed of red sandstone. When you come here in midsummer, you can obviously feel the rising and rolling of hot air, which is a veritable "Flame Mountain".

The hillside of "Flame Mountain" is covered with countless gullies. There is no grass on the mountain, the bedrock is exposed, and it is often covered with weathered sand.

climate

Flame Mountain is the hottest place in China, with the highest temperature of 47.8℃ in summer and 89℃ on the surface. Eggs can be baked in the sand nest. Turpan is a typical continental arid desert climate. Although the annual average temperature is only 14.5℃,

The number of days when the temperature exceeds 35℃ is as many as 100 days, and even the extremely hot weather above 38℃ has 38 days. The absolute maximum temperature measured for many years is 49.6℃( 1975 07 13), and the surface temperature can even reach 89℃, which is a veritable "China hot pole".

The average annual precipitation in Flame Mountain is only 16mm, accounting for half in summer, while the annual precipitation in Toksun is only 5.9mm. It is not surprising that it doesn't rain all the year round, so it can be called "China dry pole".
