Longquan Mountains

The Longquan Mountains are a low-lying range of mountains in Sichuan, China. The mountains are 200 km long, on average 10 km wide, and form a ridge-like barrier between the Chengdu Plain and the rest of the Sichuan Basin. They range from Deyang in the north to Leshan in the south. The highest point of the range is Ximei Mountain at 1,045 m in Zhongjiang County. The Longquan are bisected by the Tuo River in the north that forms a 400 m -deep gorge through the mountains. ()
