Topography

The geological structure of Xi'an City spans two major units: the Qinling Geosynclinal Fold Belt and the North China Platform. The geological structure formed across the territory during the Yanshan Movement about 130 million years ago. Since the late Tertiary Period about 3 million years ago, the great fault at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains has seen extremely active neotectonic movements in the geosynclinal fold belt of the Qinling Mountains south of the great fault. The mountains have tilted upward in the north and fallen sharply in the south, creating the Qinling Mountains. At the same time, the Weihe River Fault Depression, which belongs to the North China Platform to the north of the great fault, continued to subside, forming the Weihe River Plain under the combined action of aeolian loess cover and Weihe River alluvial action.

Xi'an has the highest altitude difference among cities in the country. The majestic and steep Qinling Mountains with beautiful peaks and the open, flat and fertile Weihe River Plain have clear boundaries, forming the main landform of Xi'an. The main ridge of the Qinling Mountains is 2000-2800 meters above sea level, and the peak of Taibai Mountain at the southwest end is 3867 meters above sea level. It is the highest mountain in the central part of the mainland. The Weihe River Plain has an altitude of 400 to 700 meters. The lowest point of the Weihe River bed in the northeast is 345 meters above sea level. The urban area of ??Xi'an is built on the secondary terraces of the Weihe River Plain.
