The landform of Wenzhou city is affected by geological structure, and the terrain is stepped from west to east. Donggong Mountain Range extends from the northeast of Fujian Province to Taishun and Wencheng counties, and Kuocang Mountain Range extends from the northeast of Yongjia to Huangyan and Xianju, with an altitude of 1000 meters. Because of the fault, it constitutes the towering Zhongshan.
Parallel to it are the South Yandang Mountain Range and the North Yandang Mountain Range, which gradually descend to a hilly area below 1000 meters. Further east are alluvial and marine plains, scattered with eroded isolated mountains and hills.
There are two kinds of coasts: cornerstones and silt. Because many rivers and mountains are directly cut, the estuary often forms a submerged valley shape. Coastal islands are the continuation of mountains entering the sea, and they are all mainland islands. Between the coast and the sea, there is a wide or narrow beach, which is new land.
