topography

Since ancient times, after continuous geological movements and changes, the Paleozoic land rose from the central part of Wang Yang, and hills appeared in Longdong. The largest Qingyang Lake basin in northwest China was deposited in Mesozoic, involving Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Mongolia. The Quaternary land continued to rise, and the Pleistocene gale swept through the loess and deposited it into the loess plateau with a thickness of more than 100 meters.

The Holocene Loess Plateau was denuded and cut by river floods, forming the existing landforms such as plateau, gully, liangmao, river valley, Pingchuan, mountain and slope. It is divided into central and southern loess plateau gully region, northern loess hilly and gully region and eastern loess hilly region. The relative height difference of the whole city is1.204m, with the highest at Majiadashan in the north and the lowest at Zhengping River Beach in the south.
