Why is my country’s mountainous areas with an altitude of 1,000 to 3,000 meters highly valuable for tourism?

Mountains can be divided into high mountains, middle mountains and low mountains according to their height. In tourism development, hills are often included in the mountain range. Mountainous areas are characterized by great absolute and relative heights. According to the characteristics of my country's mountainous areas, they are classified according to absolute height: hills below 500 meters; low mountains between 500 and 1,000 meters; middle mountains between 1,000 and 3,500 meters; high mountains between 3,500 and 5,000 meters; and extremely high mountains above 5,000 meters.

From a tourism perspective, mountain tourism at an altitude of 1,000 to 3,000 meters has higher tourism value, because the mountains at this height have outstanding features and rich scenery; gurgling water, numerous springs and waterfalls; many biological species, complex communities, and seasonal The phase changes are obvious; it is a good place to escape the heat in summer, and the ice and snow landscape in winter is difficult to see in plain areas.

From the analysis of people’s feelings about the landscape, relatively high mountainous areas have high tourism value. Because when the mountain is strongly cut and the relative height exceeds a certain height, it will give people a majestic feeling. Taking Mount Tai and Kunlun Mountain as examples, in terms of mountain scale and absolute height, Mount Tai is insignificant compared to Kunlun Mountain. However, Mount Tai, which is only 1,545 meters above sea level, stands on the North China Plain with a height difference of 1,300 meters. It dominates the world with its ability to "reach the top and see all the small mountains at a glance", becoming the first of the famous mountains and "the most powerful among the five mountains". In contrast, although Kunlun Mountain is about 5,000 meters above sea level, due to its relatively low height, it does not feel tall and majestic even if you reach the top of the mountain.

The steep slope of the mountain can increase the sense of danger. The dangerous scenery of each famous mountain is famous for its steep slope. Dangerous scenery can inspire people to forge ahead bravely and work hard, giving people the experience of "infinite scenery on dangerous peaks" and becoming an unforgettable experience for climbers.
