The 'Danubian Lowland' or 'Danube Lowland' (
Slovak: ''Podunajská nÞina'') is the name of the part of
Little Alföld (Slovak: ''Malá dunajská kotlina'') situated in
Slovakia, located between the
Danube, the
Little Carpathians and all other parts of the
Western Carpathians.
In terms of
geomorphology, it forms one unit together with the
Neusiedl Basin (''Neusiedler Becken'') in
Austria and the
Győr Basin (''Győri-medence'') in
Hungary.
It is an extensive tectonic depression filled with layers of Neogene Quaternary to a height of between 100 and 350 meters.
It consist of the following two parts:
★
Danubian Hills (also translated as Danubian Upland) in the north
★
Danubian Flat (also translated as Danubian Plain) in the south

TopoľÄany,
Nové Zámky,
Komárno,
