Gobi

The Gaxun Gobi is characterized by a gently corrugated landscape featuring a complex network of wide hollows. These depressions are separated by flat hills and rocky crests that can rise more than 300 feet (90 meters) above the surrounding plain. The region is primarily a stony desert and is nearly waterless, although salt marshes are found within its secluded depressions.1
