Characteristics of South and North:

1. The climate in northern China is in the same period of rain and heat, which is suitable for crop growth. Some provinces are major grain-producing provinces, such as Heilongjiang (the highest total output), Jilin (the highest yield per unit area), Henan, Shandong, Liaoning and other provinces.

2. The northern region is rich in temperate fruits, such as apples, pears, peaches, apricots, persimmons, dates and grapes. Local specialties are also rich, such as the famous "Three Treasures in Northeast China" (ginseng, velvet antler, mink), Luoyang peony, Lanzhou brandy melon and so on.

3. Northern China is rich in mineral resources. Northeast China is rich in oil, natural gas, coal, metal, wood and other resources, while North China is rich in coal reserves.

There are many lakes in the south, especially in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. There are mainly Poyang Lake, Dongting Lake and Taihu Lake.
