These days, a new destination has taken over the Internet; it is China's "Puppy Mountain," situated in Yichang, Hubei province. This unusual mountain is getting popular because of its resemblance to a sleeping dog, and it has become extremely popular among the internet crowd, who say that it is one of the most adorable natural phenomena. The mountain lies along the River Yangtze, with its snout dipping in the water, which makes it look as if a puppy is drinking water. This mountain was discovered by a Shanghai designer, Gua Qinshan, who took the photo while he was trekking to his hometown.
His uploaded photo received over 120,000 likes in a day, and the hashtag was #xiaogushan, or puppy mountain in Chinese. On Weibo, it received millions of views, and dog owners followed this trend. They began to arrive and click pictures of the mountain with their dogs and post them all over the Internet, and the trend boomed. People are arriving to compare their dogs being resembled from the mountain. Visitors flock around the Yichang, and some arrive with their pet dogs for heartwarming photoshoots. Yang Yang, who traveled from a nearby city, brought her two-year-old grey-colored poodle along with her. Yang Yang said, "I always travel with my dog, so this place felt perfect for us."
This Puppy Mountain is located in Zigui Country, and it was a hidden gem that was out of people's vision. The viral image that the villagers took surfaced on the Internet, and only then did people notice that it looked like a dog. After looking at the photos, some people realized that they had seen this region or area before, and immediately, they flocked around the mountain. Yichang resident Shi Tong posted this image in 2021 and stated that he had seen this place before, although he never gave much attention to the shape and its resemblance until the viral post.
Because of its newfound popularity, Puppy Mountain became an adorable wonder of nature, and nature and dog lovers united here to witness nature's magic. No matter what you see, a dog looking at a fish, a dog drinking water, or standing as a guard for the river, it is a matter of perspective, but you can be sure of one thing: this mountain has stolen the hearts of many people. It was Guo, who went on a hike while visiting his hometown, who noticed this mountain and posted its photo.
