The Shan Hills (Burmese: ရှမ်းရိုးမ, Thai: ฉานโยมา; Shan Yoma), also known as Shan Highland is a mountainous area that extends through Yunnan to Burma and Thailand. The area is made up of numerous mountain ranges separated by intermontane basins or narrow valleys. The ranges in the area are aligned in such a way that they link to the foothills of the Himalayas further to the northwest. The highest point is Loi Leng. Other peaks are 2,565 m Mong Ling Shan, 2,565 m Doi Inthanon and 2,563 m Loi Pangnao.
