    Abstract:

    Granite is one of the most abundant types of rocks in the crust. Various landscapetypes were formed because of different tectonic settings, rock types, climates and movement of crust. In this paper, we introduce the controlled factors of weathering of granites and the characteristics of the major granite landscapes. The mechanism of these landscapesare outlined. We propose that one type of granite landscape might be formed by several controlled factors, including internal and external factors.
