From a large scale, Jiangxi is precisely the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and southeast Fujian hinterland, with good location conditions.

Jiangxi has a long history, beautiful mountains and rivers, humanities, numerous places of interest. The province **** has two world heritage sites, 11 national key scenic spots, 36 national forest parks, three national historical and cultural cities, five national key protection temples, Tengwang Pavilion: Jiangnan one of the three famous 52 national key cultural relics protection units. The province's various types of scenic spots (points) up to more than 2,400. p>The topography of Jiangxi Province is dominated by the hills and mountains of Jiangnan; basins and valleys are widespread, with slight plains. Geology and geomorphology geology and tectonics, to the Jinjiang - Xinjiang line as the boundary, the northern part of the Yangzi quasi-terrestrial Jiangnan Plateau Rise, the southern part of the South China Fold System.

The Late Caledonian Movement at the end of the Silurian Period merged the two together, and was later transformed by the Indo-Chinese, Yanshan and Himalayan Movements, forming a series of tectonic zones with northeast-southwest orientations. In the southern area, there is a large amount of granite intrusion, and the basin is deposited with the red clastic layers of the Cretaceous System to the Old Tertiary System, with gypsum and rock salt deposition;

The northern area is formed with the Poyang Plain, which is located in the south of the Yangtze River. In the northern area, a faulted basin centered on Poyang Lake has been formed, and there are accumulations of Quaternary red soil in the pre-mountainous area at the edge of the basin. This is the geological basis for the province's terrain tilting to the north.
