Hi AlpheccaStars,

The lower half isn't on a plateau tho. Isn't a plateau a rise area?

Which is correct?

The city is a 300 meter high plateau.
The city is on a 300 meter high plateau.

Thank you

What you are saying is contradictory,

First you correct the sentence by writing : The low half of Luxembourg city is flat and the high half is a plateau 300 meters high.

Then you go on to say that this is the correct version.

The city is on a 300-meter-high plateau.

Which is correct I'm confused?

Alphecca, I just read the wiki, tha
