More specifically, the Iberian Peninsula is characterized by a variety of landforms, including:
* Mountains: The Pyrenees Mountains in the north, the Cantabrian Mountains in the north, the Iberian System in the center, and the Sierra Nevada in the south.
* Plateaus: The Meseta Central, a vast plateau in the center of the peninsula.
* Coastal plains: Along the Mediterranean coast, Atlantic coast, and Bay of Biscay.
* Rivers: The Tagus, Duero, Ebro, and Guadiana rivers flow through the peninsula.
The Iberian Peninsula's diverse topography is a result of tectonic plate movements and erosion over millions of years.
