Topographic survey of Guangxi

Guangxi topography

Guangxi is located in the southeast edge of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, the second step of China topography, in the west of Guangdong and Guangxi hills, and adjacent to the Beibu Gulf in the south. It is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, and it is inclined from northwest to southeast.

The mountains are continuous, the mountains are huge, and the mountains and valleys alternate with each other, surrounded by mountains and plateaus. The central and southern parts are hilly and flat, showing a basin shape, which is called "Guangxi Basin".

The mountainous area accounts for about 39.7% of the total land area in Guangxi; Hills with an altitude of 2 ~ 4 meters account for 1.3%; Landforms below 2 meters above sea level include valleys, valley plains, piedmont plains, deltas and low plateaus, accounting for 26.9%; The water surface accounts for only 3.4%.

the middle part of the basin is divided by two arc mountains, the outer arc forms the central Guangxi basin with Liuzhou as the center, and the inner arc forms many small and medium-sized basins such as Youjiang, Wuming, Nanning, Yulin and Lipu.

There are two types of plains: river alluvial plain and dissolution plain. Among the river alluvial plains, Xunjiang Plain, Yujiang Plain, Binyang Plain, Nanliujiang Delta, etc. The largest Xunjiang Plain is 63 square kilometers.

Guangxi is located at the southeast edge of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, which is called the second step of China terrain, to the west of Guangdong-Guangxi hilly region, and to the north of Beibu Gulf to the south. The whole terrain is surrounded by mountains and plateaus, while the central and southern parts are mostly flat.

therefore, the terrain inclines from northwest to southeast, and there is a basin between northwest and southeast, which is known as "Guangxi basin". Guigang City, located in the southeast of the autonomous region, has the largest plain "Xunyu Plain" in Guangxi.
