Show answer and explanation

✓ La Meseta

The Meseta Central is a large high plain in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula, at about 600-800 metres above sea level. It covers a large part of Castilla y León, Castilla-La Mancha, Madrid and Extremadura. Mountain ranges surround it and rivers such as the Duero, the Tajo and the Guadiana cross it. A marisma (marsh), on the other hand, is a wet area near the coast, like Doñana.
