Terrain of Thailand:

Topographically, it is divided into four natural areas:

The jungle in the northern mountainous area, the vast paddy fields in the central plain, the semi-arid farmland in the northeast plateau, the tropical islands in the southern peninsula and the long coastline. Most borders are low mountains and plateaus. The terrain is changeable and can be divided into four parts: west, middle, east and south.

The northeast is the Nakhon Ratchasima Plateau, which is extremely dry in summer and muddy in rainy season, and is not suitable for farming. In the middle is Zhaopina River (Zhaopina River) plain. From Bangkok to the north, the terrain gradually rises slowly, and the land along the Chao Phraya River is fertile, which is the main agricultural producing area in Thailand. To the south of Bangkok is the mangrove area of Siam Bay, which did not enter the water at high tide and became a mangrove swamp at low tide. Southern Thailand is a continuation of the western mountains, which form the Malay Peninsula to the south, and the narrowest place is called the crater isthmus.

Ordinary people in Thailand are used to comparing the national map to the head of an elephant, regarding the north as the elephant crown, the northeast as the elephant ear, the Siam Bay as the elephant mouth and the narrow strip in the south as the elephant trunk.
