Granite is a type of landscape rocks that feature granite landforms. Belonging to the category of magmatic rocks, granite is created when magma undergoes a process of crystallization, condensation, and solidification, typically occurring at depths of over three kilometers beneath the surface. Such rock is frequently identified in orogenic belts. Granite is primarily grayish-white and flesh-pink in color, mainly comprising quartz, plagioclase, and potash feldspar mingled with mica, hornblende, and pyroxene. Granite is hard and weather-resistant. In the process of orogeny, granite rocks undergo uplift, gradually become exposed on the Earth's surface as overlying rocks erode away, and eventually form majestic mountains. Granite typically develops numerous joints. These distinct formations are deemed valuable aesthetic tourism resources. Prominent examples of granite mountains include Mount Huangshan , Mount Taishan , Mount Tianzhu, Mount Sanqing, Gulangyu , Badaling , and Mount Putuo.
