Features: This book is part of the Elephant National Geographic series, which divides China into seven major regions according to the conventional administrative division: North China, East China, Northeast China, Northwest China, Central China, Southwest China, and the Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan regions. Each region is further divided into provinces (cities, autonomous regions, or special administrative regions), providing detailed introductions on aspects such as administrative divisions, population, ethnic groups, history and culture, topography, climate, economy, and tourism geography. With its accessible and comprehensive language, the book breaks down the barrier of overly academic and difficult-to-read traditional geography books, presenting real images and simple academic content in a vivid manner. This volume includes the content on Northeast China, Northwest China, and the Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan regions. Black, yellow, blue—this is land, that is sea. Sorghum turns red, grapes ripen, and various splendid colors are all adorning and embellishing the same civilization. The book introduces the administrative divisions, population, ethnic groups, history and culture, topography, climate, economy, and tourism geography of each province (city, autonomous region, or special administrative region) in Northeast China, Northwest China, and the Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan regions.
