Sichuan Basin, Geographical depression in southwestern China
The Sichuan Basin spans 229,500 square kilometers, featuring red sandstone terrain surrounded by mountains and crossed by the Yangtze River and tributaries.
The region remained independent as the Shu State until 316 BCE when the Qin dynasty incorporated it into imperial Chinese territory.
Local farmers maintain vertical agricultural traditions through extensive terracing systems that transform steep hillsides into productive farmland.
The basin contains substantial deposits of coal, natural gas, salt, manganese, and iron ore, supporting industrial development across eastern Sichuan and Chongqing.
The surrounding mountain ranges create a protective barrier that maintains warmer winter temperatures compared to other regions at similar latitudes in China.
