There are various soil in Zhuhai such as red soil, crimson soil, stone soil,
sea sand, saline-alkali soil and alluvial soil. Among them, Crimson soil
distributes over hilly land under the elevation of 300 meters. Stone soil
distributes over areas with naked rock and strong water-eroding. Sea sand
in rich reservation distributes along seashore or around big islands. The
terrain of Zhuhai slopes from west to southeast but generally gently, highlighted
by mountain, sea, sandy beach, alluvial plain, and lakes. The seacoast wanders
along 690 km, with 146 islands or islets of about 237 sq.km , which wins
for Zhuhai the title of " One Hundred Islands City". |
