span nearly 50 degrees, its southern
part is in the tropical and
subtropical zones, and its northern
part near the frigid zones. The
northern part of Heilongjiang
province has long winters but no
summers; while Hainan Island has
long summers but no winters. The
Huaihe River valley is marked by
distinctive seasonal changes, but it
is spring all year round in the
south of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.
China's high tundra zone is situated
in Qinghai-Tibet, where the
temperature is low in all four
seasons.
China's land drops off in the
escarpments eastward to the ocean,
letting in humid air currents and
leading many rivers eastward. Among
the rivers totalling 220,000
kilometres in length in China; the
Yangtze and the Yellow are the two
major ones.
China has a diversity of land
formations including mountains,
hills, highlands, plains and basins.
The highlands and hill regions
account for 65 percent of the
country's land mass. The highest
mountain peak is Qomolangma
(Everest), 8,848 metres above sea
level; the lowest point is the
Turpan Basin, 154 metres below sea
level.
