The natural climate of Hengchun Town

The average annual temperature in the whole town is 25℃, and the average temperature in the hottest July is only 28℃, which is lower than that in Taipei 1℃. 1 month, the average temperature is 265,438+0℃, which is 5℃ higher than that in Taipei. It is summer all the year round, and there is no winter. The annual precipitation is 1960mm, and the rainy season is mainly from May to 10. There are many "downhill winds" from September to March every year. This kind of wind is called "downhill wind" because after the northeast monsoon affecting Taiwan Province Province reached the peninsula, the central mountain range has been reduced to a low mountain of 300-400 meters, and there is no stopping effect, and strong winds swept down the mountain. This strong wind lost all its moisture in the process of going south. In Hengchun, it was dry and hot, making the sky dusty. The wind in Xiao Sa is like a typhoon, which is the most disastrous weather on the peninsula.

Due to the abundant sunshine and strong dry and hot wind down the mountain, onions suitable for planting are abundant. In addition, in 190 1 year, Hengchun introduced Qiongma to make ropes, sacks and other daily necessities, which played an important role in the colonial economy in the Japanese occupation era and won the reputation of "Dong Fangzhiguang". Although it has declined now, Qiongma has become a symbol of eternal spring.

Hengchun is located in a tropical climate, with coral reefs on the south coast and rich natural ecology. 1982, Kenting National Park, the first national park in Taiwan Province Province, was established here.
