Kunlun Mountain (Kunlun Mountain), also known as Kunlun Xu, the first mountain in China, Wanzu Mountain, Kunlun Mountain or Yushan Mountain. It is a mountain system in Central Asia and the backbone of the mountain system in western China.
The mountain range starts from the eastern Pamirs in the west, crosses Xinjiang and Tibet, and extends to Qinghai, with a total length of about 2,500 kilometers, an average elevation of 5,500-6,000 meters, a width of 130-200 kilometers, a narrow width in the west and a wide width in the east, with a total area of more than 500,000 square kilometers. As the "ancestor of thousands of mountains", Kunlun Mountain has a prominent position in the cultural history of the Chinese nation. The ancients called Kunlun Mountain China's "Long Mai ancestor".
Extended information Kunlun Mountain starts from Pamirs, with a total length of about 2,500 kilometers, an average elevation of 5,500-6,000 meters, a width of 1.300-200 kilometers, a narrow west and a wide east, with a total area of more than 500,000 square kilometers. It spans Qinghai, Sichuan, Xinjiang and Tibet in China, and the highest peak is Gong Geer Peak (about 70,000 meters above sea level) in Wuqia County, Kizilsu Kirgiz Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang.
It is the basic skeleton of plateau landform and an important natural division boundary of Qinghai Province. The Black Sea at the head of the Kunlun River is 4300 meters above sea level, with clear water, flocks of birds, wild animals and colorful weather.
Wild Niugou, crossing the Kunlun River, has precious wild Niugou rock paintings. The years of Yuxufeng and Yuzhufeng are covered with silver, and the mountains are shrouded in clouds. Located on the north bank of Kunlun River, Kunlun Spring is the largest unfrozen spring in Kunlun Mountain. The snow-reflecting spectacle of Kunlun in June is formed, which is a natural barrier spectacle with a depth of tens of meters.
The mountain range is almost completely unaffected by the monsoon climate of the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. On the contrary, it is under the continuous influence of continental air mass, causing great fluctuations in annual and daily temperatures. The central part of the mountain system is the driest, while the climate in the west and east is slightly milder.
