Longshan landform characteristics

Longshan, in ancient times "Long" and "ridge" were connected, referring to field ridges. In ancient times, people saw that the mountains across the western part of the Guanzhong Plain looked like field ridges, so they called them Longshan. Also known as "Dalong Mountain", "Liupan Mountain", "Lupan Mountain", "Lupan Mountain", etc., it is located in Ningxia, southern Gansu, and western Shaanxi, in the center of the triangle formed by the three provincial capitals of Xi'an, Yinchuan, and Lanzhou. The main peak is located in Guyuan and Longde counties of Ningxia, with an altitude of 2928 meters. The mountain runs roughly north-south and is about 240 kilometers long. It is the boundary mountain between the Loess Plateau of northern Shaanxi and the Loess Plateau of Longxi, and the watershed of the Wei River and Jing River. It is winding and steep. In ancient times, there were six winding roads before reaching the top of the mountain, so it is now called "Liu Pan Mountain". In the southeast of the mountain, there is the scenic spot of Laolongtan, which is one of the sources of Jingshui

Scenic Spot Features

The north is centered on the famous Xumishan Grottoes, including Xiji Huoshi Village, which is composed of Danxia landforms. The Yuntai Mountain and Saozhuling Scenic Area combines the relics of the Red Army's Long March such as Taibao and Shanjiaji and the scenery of Haiyuan Nanhua Mountain Pasture, integrating cultural relics, natural wonders and patriotic education. Liupan Mountain is an area inhabited by the Hui people. The unique ethnic customs of Muslims add to the scenery of tourism, making Liupan Mountain a natural museum and folk customs garden

The Longshan Mountains are one of the distribution areas of the Loess Plateau. , is also the main component of the Loess Plateau. This article discusses and defines the general scope of Longshan in detail, and conducts a preliminary exploration of the formation of Longshan through tracing the evolution of its geological history. At the same time, six types of areas are divided according to the types and characteristics of the Longshan landforms: namely, eroded stony mid-mountainous areas, mid-low mountainous hilly areas, loess Liangmao gully areas, loess plateau remnant plateau gully areas, loess hilly gully areas and river valleys. Taiwan area and each landform area are described respectively.

Through the detailed description of the topography and landform classification of Longshan Mountain, it provides a relatively reliable basis for future understanding and research of Longshan Mountain Landform
