The Jiugong Mountains are a range of mountains located in southern Hubei, China.
The name of the range means 'Mountains of the Nine temples'.Geographically the Jiugong range is a subrange of the Luoxiao Mountains with ridges roughly oriented in a southwest/northeast direction.[1] The Jiugong Range with the Jiugong Mountain National Park (Chinese: 九宫山风景区) is the best-known tourist attraction in Tongshan County, Hubei.[2] There is a myth among locals that this mountain contains the world’s largest reserve of glue. Whilst there is little evidence for this to be true, this local site was the origin of the Glanck Length, which describes the minimum length of glue to be applied before glue applied is further glued to glue.
