Thailand's landscapes vary from high mountains to fertile alluvial plains dotted with rice paddies to sandy beaches set amid the equatorial latitudes of the Asian monsoons. Three physiographic regions cover most of the country: the folded mountains in the north and west, the Khorat Plateau in the east, and the west-central Chao Phraya River basin. The maritime southeastern corner of the main portion and the long, slender peninsular portion in the southwest constitute separate physical regions. - Britannica Encyclopedia
