Introduction to Hukou Waterfall:
Hukou Waterfall is a natural waterfall formed when the middle reaches of the Yellow River flows through the Qin Jin Grand Canyon.
Shanxi and Shaanxi are separated by hukou.
Hukou Waterfall was born in this hukou. Before the waterfall, the riverbed of the Yellow River was several thousand meters wide. Here, the rocks on both sides of the river suddenly contracted, forming a slot of 10,000 meters.
Not only that, but also a deep valley with a steep drop was formed under the groove.
As a result, the water from all over the sky gathered here and poured into the canyon, with a momentum like a landslide.
Hukou Waterfall is the second largest waterfall in China after Huangguoshu Waterfall and the largest yellow waterfall in the world.
The Yellow River is a big river in the north of China, with a total length of about 5,464 kilometers and a drainage area of about 752,443 square kilometers. One of the longest rivers in the world, the second longest river in China. The Yellow River originated in Zhaqu at the southern foot of ChaHasila Mountain, bayan har branch of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, in the south it originated in Kariqu at the northern foot of Geyaya Mountain, bayan har branch, and in the west it originated in Yueguzong music in the west of Xingsuhai.
It is shaped like a "few" and flows from west to east through Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and Shandong provinces (autonomous regions), and finally flows into the Bohai Sea.
The middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River are dominated by mountains, while the middle and lower reaches are dominated by plains and hills. Because the middle section of the river flows through the Loess Plateau in China and carries a lot of sediment, it is also called the river with the largest sediment concentration in the world. However, in the history of China, the diversion of the lower Yellow River has brought great influence to human civilization.
The Yellow River is the most important birthplace of Chinese civilization. People in China call it "Mother River". Every year,1600 million tons of sediment is produced, of which1200 million tons flows into the sea, and the remaining 400 million tons remain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River for many years, forming an alluvial plain, which is beneficial to planting.
Whose poem is A Pot of Harvest in the Yellow River?

In addition, there are such couplets:
If you let yourself roar, a pot of yellow river will make a thousand miles. Bai Fenglin stood up and waited for the soldiers. The world was wonderful and beautiful.
Extended data
The name "Hukou" was first found in Shangshu Gong Yu in the Warring States Period, and "Hukou, Liangqi, Hukou, Lei Shou and Taiyue" were all related to Dayu's route and strategy of water control. But although I mentioned the hukou, I didn't say the waterfall. Although Li Daoyuan's Notes on Water Classics gave a profound description of Mengmen and Waterfalls, it still didn't mention Hukou on the main stream of the Yellow River.
It was not until the 18th year of Qing Qianlong (1753) that Wu Bingcai, editor of Yichuan County Records, pointed out that the hukou of the Yellow River was "broad and broad, hence the name". It can be seen that the formation of hukou has a long evolutionary history.
Hukou is the crystallization of the Yellow River water scouring for many years, and naturally it is always upward. In the same way, the deeper the confluence, the faster the velocity of the vast upstream water source, and a powerful waterfall will be formed at the hukou.
Especially in the rainy season in summer, the water surface in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is about 300-400 meters wide, which can be compressed to the hukou of several tens of meters in a long distance of less than 500 meters. "The river 1000 m3/s pours down from a steep cliff more than 20 meters high", forming a unique landscape of "a pot of Yellow River thousands of miles away".
The poem of Amin poet Hui Shiyang, "originated in Kunlun Mountain, and Yumenguan turned to a basin." It is a true portrayal of Hukou Waterfall.
Although Hukou Waterfall is limited by geographical environment, as a large canyon waterfall landscape in China, except Huangguoshu Waterfall, it still ranks second with its spectacular features of "surging rapids, rolling turbid waves, splashing water, misty fog, roaring wild waves and acoustic shock to Wan Li".
According to reports, the height of the waterfall can reach 40 to 50 meters in summer and autumn, and it can reach nearly 20 meters even in dry season. Although Hukou is also the largest yellow waterfall in the world, you can only see crystal waves and white fog splashing from a distance or nearby.
