  • Iberian Peninsula Landforms: A Comprehensive Overview
    The Iberian Peninsula is a peninsula, which is a piece of land surrounded by water on three sides.

    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.
