Geography landforms are the natural features of the Earth's surface. They include mountains, hills, valleys, plains, and plateaus. For example, a mountain is a tall landform that rises high above the surrounding area. Mountains are formed by forces in the Earth's crust, like tectonic plates pushing against each other.

Valleys, on the other hand, are low areas between mountains, often formed by rivers or glaciers that carve out the land over time. Understanding these landforms helps us learn about the environment and how it shapes where people live.
