brief introduction
Tianshan Mountain, also known as China Tianshan Mountain or East Tianshan Mountain, was called Baishan Mountain in ancient times, also known as Snow Mountain. Because there is snow in winter and summer, it is named. Tianshan Mountain is the only large mountain range in the world sandwiched by a huge desert. With its profound inland geographical location, temperate continental arid climate, landform pattern of alternating mountains and basins, numerous glacial rivers, wonderful natural scenery, special biota and ecological processes, it has become the most typical representative of large-scale mountain ecosystems in temperate arid regions around the world.
