About 650 square kilometers (60% of the total land area) of Hong Kong are natural slopes.
The mountain range runs from northeast to southwest, with Tai Mo Shan (958 meters) in the middle of the New Territories as the first peak and extending in many directions. Phoenix Mountain (934m) and Dadong Mountain (869m) in the southwest of Lantau Island are another major mountain range.

Hong kong climate
The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has a maritime subtropical monsoon climate with four distinct seasons and an average annual temperature of 23.3℃. The temperature may drop below 10℃ in winter and rise above 3 1℃ in summer. Rainfall is concentrated from May to September, accounting for about 80% of the annual rainfall. The annual rainfall is abundant, and the flowers are fragrant in all seasons. It is warm and foggy in spring, hot and rainy in summer, sunny in autumn and slightly dry and cold in winter.
In addition, the high-rise buildings in the urban area of Hong Kong are concentrated and densely populated, and the microclimate formed is easy to produce the heat island effect, which leads to the obvious temperature difference between the urban area and the suburbs. It is difficult to blow away the "suspended particles" in the air in the urban areas with high-rise buildings.
