Question

Where is the Annamite Range located at in vietnam?

Answer 1

The Annamite Range is a mountain range of western Indochina, which extends approximately 1100 km (700 miles) through Laos and Vietnam. It is known in Vietnamese as Giai Truong Son, in Lao as Phou Luang, and in French as the Chaîne Annamitique. The mountain range is also referred to variously as Annamese Range, Annamese Mountains, Annamese Cordillera, Annamite Mountains and Annamite Cordillera.

The range runs parallel to the Vietnamese coast, in a gentle curve which divides the basin of the Mekong River from Vietnam's narrow coastal plain along the South China Sea. The eastern slopes of the range rise steeply from the plain, and the eastern slope is drained by numerous short rivers. It has three main plateaux, from north to south: Phouane Plateau, Nakai Plateau and Boloven Plateau
