This is the location of the Flame Mountain in the Journey to the West, the hottest place in China, and it is called "Flame Island". The annual maximum temperature is 43℃, and the surface temperature is 75℃. The highest temperature in history is 49.6℃ (83.3℃ on the surface). No wonder scones in Xinjiang are so famous and really spicy!
Second place, Chongqing
The first of the veritable "three furnaces", the drought that lasted for more than 40 days in 2006, created a new record of high temperature here-44.5℃! The temperature here reaches 40 degrees every summer, the air is humid, just like a sauna, and there are many mountains, even if cold air comes, it will be blocked by the mountains here.
Third place, Wuhan
Wuhan ranks second among the traditional "three furnaces" in China. The highest temperature in history was 65438+4 1.3℃ in 0934. The highest temperature in the past 50 years after liberation was 39.6℃, which easily reached 39 degrees for three consecutive days every year. Although there are many places in China where the temperature is higher than her, the reputation of "spicy" is not as loud as her. What is the reason? Because the "heat" here is not only the temperature itself, another important factor is that the air here is extremely humid, giving people a feeling of steaming sauna in summer.
Summer in Wuhan: May, June, July, August and September, and July is the hottest.
