The scale in the map is 1:43000000. The darker the red line in the figure, the higher the altitude.
There are three main east-west mountain ranges: the northernmost column is Tianshan-Yinshan-Yanshan; the middle column is Kunlun Mountain-Qinling Mountains; the southernmost column is Nanling Mountains.
The mountains from northeast to southwest are mostly distributed in the east, and the mountain range is low.
