Mountain Plateau
A mountain is any natural elevation of the Earth’s surface. It is considerably higher than the surrounding area. A plateau is an elevated flat land. It is a flat-topped table land standing above the surrounding area.
Mountains have peaks. Plateaus are flattened highlands.

Though it is higher than the surrounding area, there are no peaks in a plateau as it consists of flat land only. The flat landform adjacent to mountains is classified as intermontane plateaus, and they are also the highest plateaus of the world such as Tibetan plateau.
