Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is located in the south of the motherland, bordering Guangdong Province in the east, Hainan Province across the sea in the south, Yunnan Province in the west, Hunan Province in the northeast, Guizhou Province in the northwest and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam in the southwest.

Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is located on the southeast edge of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, the second step of China's topography, west of Guangdong and Guangxi hills and south of Beibu Gulf. The northwest is high, the southeast is low, and it slopes from northwest to southeast. The mountains are continuous, the mountains are huge, the mountains and valleys alternate with each other, surrounded by mountains and plateaus, and the south-central part is hilly and flat, showing a basin shape, which is called "Guangxi Basin".

Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is generally a hilly basin landform, which is divided into six categories: mountains, hills, terraces, plains, rocky mountains and water surfaces. The mountainous area is mainly Zhongshan at an altitude of more than 800 meters, followed by low mountains at an altitude of 400 to 800 meters, accounting for about 39.7% of the total land area of Guangxi. Hills with an altitude of 200 to 400 meters account for10.3%; The landforms below 200 meters above sea level include valleys, valley plains, piedmont plains, deltas and low plateaus, accounting for 26.9%; The water surface only accounts for 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 main types of plains: river alluvial plains and dissolved plains. River alluvial plains include Jiang Xun Plain, Yujiang Plain, Binyang Plain and Nanliu River Delta, with the largest Jiang Xun Plain covering 630 square kilometers. Karst landforms in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region are widely distributed, concentrated in southwest, northwest, central and northeast Guangxi, accounting for about 37.8% of the total land area, and the development types are rare in the world.

The territory of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is squeezed by the Pacific plate and the Indian Ocean plate, and the mountains are mostly arc-shaped. The mountains are coiled around the basin edge or staggered in the basin, forming the basin edge mountains and internal mountains. The mountains on the edge of the basin are divided into three parts: Phoenix Mountain, Jiuwan Mountain, Damiao Mountain, Da Nanshan Mountain and Tianping Mountain in northern Guangxi; There are Maoershan, Yuechengling, Haiyang, Dupont and Mengzhuling in eastern Guangxi. There are clouds and mountains in southeastern Guangxi; There are Rong Da, 60,000 Mountain and 100,000 Mountain in southern Guangxi. Western Guangxi is a karst mountain area; Northwest Guangxi is a mountainous area on the edge of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, including Jinzhongshan and Cenwanglaoshan. There are two mountains in the territory, namely Jiaqiaoling and Dayao Mountain, which run from northeast to southwest, and Duyang Mountain and Daming Mountain, which run from northwest to southeast. The two mountains meet in Huixian Town. The main peak of Maoershan Mountain on the edge of the basin is 2 14 1 m above sea level, which is the first peak in South China.

Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is located at low latitude, with the Tropic of Cancer running through the middle, bordering tropical ocean in the south, Nanling Mountains in the north and Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in the west, belonging to subtropical monsoon climate zone and tropical monsoon climate. The climate is warm, with abundant rainfall and sunshine. In summer, the sunshine time is long, the temperature is high, the precipitation is high, and in winter, the sunshine time is short, and the weather is dry and warm. Affected by the alternation of warm and humid airflow in southwest China and denatured cold air mass in north China, meteorological disasters such as drought, rainstorm, tropical cyclone, strong wind, thunderstorm, hail and low temperature chilling injury (freezing) are more common.
