Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and part of the border of Xinjiang are desert-Gobi type, and Ningxia is a desert oasis.

China's desert areas are mainly concentrated in the northwest, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Gansu, and these places have Taklamagan Tarim.

There are many desert areas in China, north of Shaanxi, near Jingbian and then to the northwest, you can clearly feel the change in soil quality.

The arid region of Northwest China is the most concentrated desert area in China, accounting for about 80% of the total desert area of the country, and the main deserts from west to east include eight major deserts, including the Taklamakan Desert, the Gurbantunggut Desert, the Kumtag Desert, the Qaidam Desert, the Badain Jaran Desert, the Tengger Desert, the Ulan Buhe Desert and the Kubuqi Desert.

The Taklamakan Desert, which means "place to go in and out" in Uyghur, is often referred to as the Sea of Death. It is located in the center of the Tarim Basin in southern Xinjiang, covering an area of 324,000 square kilometers, and is the largest desert in China, second only to the Sahara Desert in Africa, and the second largest mobile desert in the world.

Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Gansu and Ningxia.

There are large areas of desert.

Especially the Taklamakan Desert.

Hello, glad to answer for you.

From west to east, China's main deserts include the Taklamakan Desert, the Gurbantunggut Desert, the Kumtag Desert, the Qaidam Desert, the Badain Jaran Desert, the Tengger Desert, the Ulan Buhe Desert and the Kubuqi Desert. The total area of China's deserts is about 700,000 square kilometers, and if you include the Gobi Desert, which is more than 500,000 square kilometers, the total area is 1.28 million square kilometers, accounting for 13% of the country's total land area. The arid region of Northwest China is the most concentrated area of deserts in China, accounting for about 80% of the total desert area of the country.

China's deserts are found in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Shaanxi Province, Qinghai Province, and Gansu Province.

1. Located in the center of the Tarim Basin in southern Xinjiang, the Taklamakan Desert is the largest desert in China, the tenth largest desert in the world, and the second largest mobile desert in the world. The entire desert is about 1,000 kilometers long from east to west and 400 kilometers wide from north to south, covering an area of 330,000 square kilometers. The average annual precipitation does not exceed 100 mm, and the minimum is only four or five mm; The average evaporation is as high as 2500 3400 mm.

2. Gurbantunggut Desert (also known as Junggar Basin Desert): Located in the Junggar Basin of Xinjiang**, east of the Manas River and south of the Ulungu River, it is also the largest fixed and semi-fixed desert in China, with an area of about 10,000 square kilometers, ranking second among the eight major deserts in China, with an altitude of 300 600 meters and more water sources.

3. The Badain Jaran Desert is one of the eight major deserts in China and the main body of the Alxa Desert, located at the bottom of the Yin'an Basin in the western part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, with a total area of 10,000 square kilometers. Among them, Bilutu Peak is the highest sand peak in the world.

The Badain Jaran Desert receives less than 40 mm of rainfall a year, but there are more than 100 lakes in the desert. Towering sand mountains, mysterious sand songs, quiet lakes and wetlands constitute the unique and charming landscape of the Badain Jaran Desert, attracting tens of thousands of domestic and foreign tourists every year.

4. The Tengger Desert is located in the southwest of the Alxa Left Banner of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and the central border of Gansu Province, between 37°30 to 40°N latitude and 102°20 to 106°E longitude. The Great Wall of South Vietnam, east to Helan Mountain, west to Yabulai Mountain. It is 240 kilometers long from north to south and 160 kilometers wide from east to west, with a total area of about 10,000 square kilometers, making it the fourth largest desert in China.

It is the eastern part of the Alxa Desert, at the bottom of the Yin'e Basin.

5. The Mu Us Desert is located in the north of the first line of the Great Wall of Yulin, Shaanxi Province, so Yulin City is also known as the camel city, which means the city of the desert, and the Mu Us Desert covers an area of about 10,000 square kilometers. The precipitation is more (250,400 mm), which is conducive to plant growth, and it is a relatively developed area of animal husbandry, and the area of fixed and semi-fixed sand dunes is larger.

Hope, thank you.

China's deserts are mainly found in Xinjiang, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Liaoning, Jilin and Heilongjiang.

Explanation of terms] Desert mainly refers to a barren area where the ground is completely covered with sand, plants are very scarce, rain is scarce, and the air is dry. The desert is also made"Sand curtain", arid and water-scarce, sparsely planted areas. The desert area is mostly sandy beaches or sand dunes, and rocks under the sand are often found.

Some deserts are salt flats and completely devoid of vegetation. Deserts are generally aeolian landforms. There are sometimes valuable mineral deposits in the desert, and many oil deposits have been discovered in recent times.

The desert is rarely inhabited, and the resources are relatively easy to exploit. The desert has a dry climate, and it is also a happy place for archaeologists, who can find many human artifacts and earlier fossils.

Distribution] China's deserts are mainly distributed in 9 provinces and autonomous regions north of 35 degrees north latitude, with a total area of square kilometers, and there are 12 major desert groups.

1.With an area of 10,000 square kilometers, the Taklamakan Desert is the largest desert in China and the second largest mobile desert in the world, which is distributed in the Tarim Basin of Xinjiang, with sand dunes up to 200 meters.

2.The Gurbantunggut Desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers and is located in the Junggar Basin of Xinjiang.

3.The Kumtag Desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers. It is in the eastern part of Xinjiang, the western part of Gansu, the south of Lop Nur and the north of the Altun Mountains.

4.The original area of the Badain Jaran Desert was 10,000 square kilometers, in the Alxa Plateau in western Inner Mongolia. However, in recent years, the area of the Badain Jaran Desert has continued to expand, reaching more than 10,000 square kilometers, which is larger than the area of the Gurbantunggut Desert.

5.The Tengger Desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers and is located in the southeast of the Alxa Plateau. The Tengger Desert is dominated by mobile sand dunes and is the fastest flowing desert in China.

6.Ulan Buhe desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers, in the northeast of the Alxa Plateau, dominated by mobile sand dunes.

7.The Kubuqi Desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers, in the north of Ordos, near the Yellow River, and is dominated by mobile sand dunes.

8.The Mu Us Desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers and is located in the south of Ordos. It is dominated by fixed and semi-fixed sand dunes.

9.The Qaidam Desert covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers, and in the Qaidam Basin of Qinghai, mobile sand dunes are the main ones.

10.The Hunshandak Sandy Land covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers and is located in the southern part of the Xilin Gol Grassland in Inner Mongolia.

11.The Horqin Sandy Land covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers and is located in the West Liao River Basin. It is dominated by fixed and semi-fixed sand dunes.

12.Hulunbuir sandy land covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers, in the southwest of Hulunbuir. Multi-fixed semi-fixed dunes.

Deserts are mainly distributed in Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai and other provinces and regions of China. Among them, the Taklamakan Desert is the largest desert in China, located at the junction of Kashgar, Hotan and Aksu in southern Xinjiang, covering an area of 330,000 square kilometers.

In the desert area, the desert dominated by closed fiber mobile sand dunes accounts for more than 70% of the country's desert area, among which Xinjiang has the most extensive desert area, accounting for about 60% of the country's desert area. The climatic conditions of these desert areas are dry, vegetation is scarce, and dune chains and dunes are staggered.

Located in the Tarim Basin of Xinjiang, China, the Takram Desert is the largest desert in China and the second largest mobile desert in the world. A desert is a barren area where the ground is covered with sand, plants are scarce, rain is scarce, and the air is dry.
