Malvos plynaukštė, Volcanic plateau in Madhya Pradesh, India

The Malwa Plateau extends across 88,000 square kilometers, featuring basalt rock formations and numerous rivers including Chambal, Betwa, and Kshipra.

The region traces its origins to the 4th century BCE when the Malava tribes engaged in conflicts with Alexander before settling near present-day Ujjain.

The plateau houses archaeological sites such as Sanchi Stupa, Bhim Betika caves, and Mahakaleshwar Temple, reflecting Buddhist and Hindu influences.

The black soil of the plateau supports extensive cultivation of wheat, cotton, soybeans, and oilseeds, with an annual rainfall of approximately 25 inches.

The plateau contains mineral deposits including asbestos, dolomite, and slate, while major cities like Indore, Bhopal, and Ujjain mark its landscape.
