Where is the dividing line between north and south of our country?

The Qinling-Huaihe line is what we often call the geographical dividing line between the north and south of China. There are obvious differences between the north and the south of this line in natural conditions, agricultural production methods, geographical characteristics and people's living customs.

Please remember this line, which is very important. The first line of Huaihe River in Qinling Mountains is China's 800MM isoprecipitation line, the traditional north-south dividing line, the distribution dividing line between paddy field and dry land, the 0 degree isotherm of 1 month, the dividing line between rice and wheat planting, the dividing line between subtropical zone and warm temperate zone, the dividing line between humid and semi-humid zone, and the dividing line between sub-hot monsoon climate and temperate monsoon climate.
