Geomorphological features

The traffic here is blocked and the mountains overlap, with a total area of about1.5 ~ 200,000 square kilometers. The ups and downs of the mountains form a three-dimensional climate, and the people at the foot of the mountain are extremely hot. At that time, people at the top of the mountain may have to surround the fire pit to keep out the cold. Relatively speaking, the natural conditions in high-altitude areas are relatively poor, and people's lives are more difficult.

Climate environment

The average elevation in this area is 1500-3000m, with fertile land and warm and humid climate. Long-term sunshine in subtropical areas makes there enough sunshine to promote the growth of various plants. The change of monsoon belt in Southeast Asia makes it a dry and wet season. In summer, the southwest monsoon brings a lot of hot and humid water from the sea, forming a wet season when there is abundant rainfall, and in winter, the dry and cold monsoon belt in the north affects the formation of a dry season. This periodic change regulates the rhythm of local creatures.

The climate with long sunshine, low latitude and high humidity in Southeast Asia is very conducive to the growth and reproduction of animals and plants, which in turn forms a unique local rainforest climate and causes biodiversity here.
