The north is far enough away from the sun, that it freezes. The north is at the center of the circular path that the sun makes above our head. While a place like Australia is directly above the most souther path of the sun, having the sun daily right above it for 3-4 months a year. While the suns most northern path is around Hong Kong in China.
Another thing that came to my attention, is that the average elevation of Mongolia is 1580 meters above the sea level. Whatever parts in northern China that gets cold, could be because of the elevation.
The Gobi is overall a cold desert, with frost and occasionally snow occurring on its dunes. Besides being quite far north, it is also located on a plateau roughly 910–1,520 m (2,990–4,990 ft) above sea level, which contributes to its low temperatures.
Then why is the north a frozen wasteland. Why is Australia balls fucking hot while regions like northetn China are brutally cold?

Yeah no.

But it's closer to the sun, right?
