Cut step-like ledges into the mountainside
The Sichuan Basin, a large basin surrounded by high mountains, lies southwest of the Central Uplands. Its mild climate and long growing season make it one of China's main agricultural regions. Most crops are grown on terraced fields-level strips of land cut out of the hillsides. The name Sichuan means Four Rivers and refers to the four streams that flow into the Yangtze River in the region. The rivers have carved out deep gorges in the region's red sandstone, which makes land travel difficult. Small ships can travel on the Yangtze into central Hubei, but only boats and other small craft can navigate farther west into Sichuan and the river's swift-flowing tributaries.
