Pingtung Plain

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pingtung Plain (Chinese: 屏東平原) is a plain area including parts of Pingtung County and Kaohsiung City. It includes the alluvial fan of Kaoping River, which forms the largest drainage area of rivers in Taiwan,[1] and also passed by other shorter rivers such as Tungkang River, Linpian River (林邊溪) and Shihwen River (士文溪). The plain faces the Taiwan Strait on the southwest, lies to the east of Kaohsiung City, and at the west of Central Mountain Range.
