valleys
A broad, flat valley, typically situated between hills or mountains; an expanse of level ground resulting from geological splitting or recession. The term denotes both a geographical feature—an open plain or lowland—and, by extension, a region characterized by such terrain. While primarily used for sizeable valleys in geographical descriptions, it also appears as the proper name of certain locations featuring this topography.
