What kind of landforms and climatic characteristics does Guilin's landscape belong to?

Guilin landscape belongs to the world-famous karst landform. Guilin landform is a tropical karst landform represented by peak forests and depressions. There are many underground caves, mainly karst arch caves. Peak forest can be divided into solitary peak, sparse peak and peak cluster, and strange caves with strange peaks are typical characteristics of tropical karst.

The topography of Guilin

Modern karst in China was developed on the basis of quasi-plain after Yanshan movement. As the material basis of karst landform development, carbonate rocks (such as limestone, dolomite, gypsum and rock salt) are widely distributed in Guilin. In Tertiary, the climate was tropical, and the peak forest began to develop. The formation of Neogene monsoon climate laid the foundation of karst zonality, and the hot and humid climate made karst development stronger. Especially since the Quaternary, the crust has risen rapidly, and karst landforms have developed rapidly, with complex and diverse types.
