The study of geography in China begins in the Warring States period (5th century BC). It expands its scope beyond the Chinese homeland with the growth of the Chinese Empire under the Han dynasty and enters a golden age with the Han dynasty invention of the compass as one of the Four Great Inventions. The compass was then used from the 11th century during the Song dynasty, Yuan dynasty, Ming dynasty, and Qing dynasty in the study of geography. One of the most famous explorers in Chinese history was the 15th century admiral Zheng He, known for the Chinese exploration of the Pacific and his treasure voyages.

  • Les premières cartes apparaissent en Chine à la période des Royaumes combattants, au Ve siècle av. J.-C.. Leurs portées s'étendent au-delà des terres du berceau de la civilisation chinoise avec la croissance de l'empire chinois sous la dynastie Han. La géographie chinoise connaît son âge d'or avec l'invention de la boussole au XIe siècle, durant la dynastie Song, et atteint son sommet au XVe siècle, lors de la dynastie Ming, avec l'exploration chinoise de l'océan Indien par l'amiral Zheng He.
