What are the two major plains of china?

Located in eastern China, the North China Plain stretches from the Huanghai Sea (Yellow Sea) in the east to the Taihang Mountains and the North China Hills in the west. Covering an area of approximately 300,000 square kilometers, it includes the provinces of Hebei, Shandong, northern Jiangsu, northern Anhui, and most of Henan. Major cities within the plain include Beijing, Tianjin, Jinan, Qingdao, Zhengzhou, and Kaifeng. This vast alluvial plain serves as the cradle of ancient Chinese civilization.

Yangtze Plain

Also known as the Changjiang Plain, the Yangtze Plain lies in eastern and south-central China. As the alluvial plain formed by the Yangtze River over millions of years, it extends from Yichang, Hubei in the west to the East China Sea in the east. The Yangtze Plain spans four provinces and one centrally-administered city: Sichuan, Chongqing, Hubei, Jiangsu, and Shanghai. Covering an area of approximately 200,000 square kilometers, it accommodates China's largest lake by surface area, named Poyang Lake. Cities within the plain include Shanghai, Nanjing, Suzhou, and Wuhan.
