NORTHWESTERN DESERTS
The Northwestern Deserts: Taklimakan Desert, Turfan Depression and the Gobi Desert have extreme temperatures, are very dry and have sandstorms which helped keep Ancient China isolated from invaders.

CHANG JIANG RIVER AND BASINS
The Chang Jiang or Yangtze River is longer than the Huang He which is why its name means "Long River."

The Yangtze also has many tributaries which made it useful for travel and transporting goods.
