Geography: Describe a Landscape

This landcape is situated in Yunnan (China).I choose this landscape because my father went to Yunnan for work and he sent me a picture of this landscape and i like too much.



Yunnan is located into the hot zone and then into the tropical climate because is in the south of China. The temperaturas are high all year fot two seasons: the rainy season (summer) and the dry seasons (Winter) this picture is in the dry season. River’s flow varies depending on the season. In the rainy season, the river’s flow rises but they are almost dry during the dry season. Savannas are common in tropical zones. It is a huge plain with tall grass. Its colour varies. It is green in the rainy season, and yellow in the dry season. Many herbivores live in the savannas, like elephants, gazelles, zebras and antelopes. Preddators like lions, hienas and leopard.
