The terrain of Asia varies from deserts (brown, central and southern Asia), to tropical rainforests (dark green, South East Asia), to plains, forests and tundra (lighter green, northern Asia), and mountain ranges (lower centre). Surrounding mainland Asia (clockwise from top) is the Arctic Ocean (with Greenland and North America beyond), the Pacific Ocean, the Malay Archipelago and northern Australia, the Indian Ocean, northeastern Africa, and Europe.
