Chapter 1: Travel Notes on the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River
The Hukou of the Yellow River is located between Yichuan, Shaanxi and Jixian, Shanxi, on the dividing line between Qin and Jin provinces. The Yellow River water brought a large amount of sediment through here after washing the Loess Plateau. The special geographical landform here caused the turbid yellow water to rush southward along the high drop on the slate river bed. There is no possibility of sedimentation here. The famous Hukou Waterfall is located here.
"The force of thousands of islands emptied out, and the sound of thousands of thunders shook the earth." I have admired the reputation of the world's first yellow waterfall for a long time, but it was not until October 2005 that I had the chance to see its true appearance. Realize my dream wish---appreciate the Hukou Falls of the Yellow River.
We walked along the river to a spacious area, and walked down to the river beach on high and steep concrete steps dozens of meters wide. On the river beach, there were two old Shaanxi men wearing shearling vests and white towels on their heads, leading small decorated donkeys. When they saw us, they greeted us and enthusiastically invited us to ride on the donkeys and take photos. After their introduction, we learned that Hukou Waterfall is not looking up, but looking down! To see the waterfall, you have to walk along the artificial trestle to the middle of the Yellow River!
At this time, We vaguely heard sounds like thunder, drums, tsunamis, and thousands of cannons coming from the river beach, pouring into our ears one after another, suddenly shaking off people's fatigue from the journey and the slightest bit of disappointment. It attracts people to eagerly follow an artificially built winding corridor, and after crossing a cleverly designed bow bridge, it suddenly opens up, and the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River appears in front of them. I saw the surging Yellow River slowly gathering from the wide river bed. Suddenly the water was so fast that it fell into a narrow and unfathomable stone trench.
Suddenly, bursts of thick fog appeared very close in front of us, and the roar of the waterfall was clearly audible. Soon, the turbid Yellow River water appeared in front of us with an overwhelming force. The roar was deafening! We were stunned! Walking forward and approaching her, we clearly saw the waterfall and the spout of the pot cascading thousands of miles underground. The waterfall, its momentum and roar are unique in the world! Standing on the boulder in the middle of the Yellow River, you can see the yellow water coming from all directions, roaring and rushing into the "Hukou". That kind of scene, with Hui Juji, It can't even be described as majestic.
What a spectacular giant pot this is. It’s like the hand of a god lifting up a pot of yellow water and pouring it into the sky, watching the huge waves soaring into the sky roaring, rolling, and raging violently. Hitting left and right on the stone walls on both sides, he galloped forward wildly, causing clouds of yellow mist to surge upwards. Like a sharp sword made of turbid currents, the yellow blade cuts through the stony river bed; like a furious lion shaking its shiny mane and leaping off the towering stone wall; like a war horse unwilling to be taken by the neck, unyielding The ground screamed, jumped wildly, and shook, raising yellow dust that obscured the eyes; like a yellow dragon unwilling to bow its head and be bound, it roared angrily, stretched, and swung, rolling up the yellow dust that covered the sky and the sun. cloud.
Chapter 2: Hukou Waterfall
The wind is roaring, the horses are braying, and the Yellow River is roaring! This majestic and passionate Yellow River chorus has been sung by the Chinese people for more than half a century Century. It has become the clarion call for the Chinese nation to move forward bravely despite hardships, and a symbol of the strong and unyielding spiritual power of the Chinese nation. After thousands of years of vicissitudes, the asymmetrical river, the Yellow River, has given birth to the children of China. The profound history and culture have always fascinated me, and I look forward to witnessing her elegance.
On the occasion of celebrating the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Party, my unit finally had the opportunity to visit the middle reaches of the Yellow River and set foot in the famous river. The Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River in the world.
The canyon waterfall landscape formed by the roaring Yellow River cutting through the Luliang Mountains attracts many Chinese and foreign tourists. We took a car along the Qinglan Expressway and headed straight to Yichuan County, Shaanxi Province. The abandoned cave dwellings on both sides of the road tell the story of the past. Small western-style buildings with blue or red roofs are neatly arranged. The living conditions of the villagers have been greatly improved. The crops grown in the farmland are bearing fresh and tender ears, and the apple trees on the slopes are hanging with heavy fruits. It’s a sight to behold. The scenery and vegetation along the way are all dark green, not the desolation of the loess slopes I imagined.
As we got off the highway, we drove to the canyon and waterfalls, and suddenly a yellow ditch appeared on the right side of the road. The yellow water strip has a layer of white bubbles on it, and the flow rate is slow and calm. If you don't pay attention, you can't see the water flowing, like an irrigation ditch filled with water, polluted by white foam. >
As the car approached from a distance, I saw the river water speeding up, the turbid waves moving in a hurry, and the white foam disappearing. The tour guide said: "We are almost reaching Hukou Waterfall. , you can see the thousands of miles of Yellow River and the hundreds of feet of waterfalls: "There are dragons at the bottom of the water making huge waves, and there is no rain on the bank and a rainbow hangs."
When we took the car down to the waterfall viewing room attraction, the parking lot was filled with various large and medium-sized tourist buses and self-driving cars. Finding a parking space requires careful consideration. Our car was parked far away. Looking at the waterfall scenic spot, the main location for viewing the waterfall is bustling with people.
Black hair, yellow hair, white hair, yellow panels, white panels, and black panels are mixed in, and they are all connected, showing their own style. Squeezing into the crowd, the noise in my ears was overwhelming. Chinese, foreign languages, local languages, and dialects are exchanged in friendship.
People's aesthetic taste is attracted and amazed by the unique geological features of Hukou Waterfall! The hard purple-colored rocks, hills and river beds on both sides of the canyon have maintained their true colors despite being eroded by wind and rain for thousands of years. It is not as easy to rust as steel.
Look: The river flow of more than 400 meters is suddenly intercepted by the Shili Longtrough, which is only about 50 meters long. The waterfall falls with a huge drop, stones are splashed, beads are splashed, wadding is ripped from the shore, whirlpools are rapid, and there are various shapes, yellow smoke and water mist. diffuse.
Listen: The rolling mud leaking into the dragon trough is like a galloping horse moving forward with mane and hooves, breaking through the stormy waves, with great momentum. The sound is like marching drums, and the sonorous echo echoes in the canyon. The roar is like the arrival of a king, majestic and a symbol of power! It is breathtaking.
Listen to the roar of the Yellow River. Only by standing at Hukou Waterfall can you appreciate the charm of the Yellow River and make you think endlessly.
The roaring Yellow River has been angry for thousands of years, roaring for thousands of years, roaring out of the Guanzhong Plain, the birthplace of Chinese civilization! Thirteen dynasties of monarchs once established their capitals here, with outstanding people and outstanding people. There are 75 kings sleeping here, still listening to the roar of the Yellow River!
Chapter 3: Viewing the Hukou Falls of the Yellow River
The Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation. The Hukou Falls of the Yellow River is the heart of the mother river.
Several yellow-brown tributaries gathered together, and the river surface suddenly opened up a lot. The sound of the rolling waves grew louder and louder until it was deafening. The waves rolled over one after another, splashing out layers of white foam. The layer of foam shattered, revealing the original yellow-brown color. But then, another wave came over, adding another touch to the Yellow River. white. Not far ahead, a layer of white mist appeared, hazily covering the yellow-brown color behind. We went to Hukou Waterfall on the Yellow River.
Looking at the waterfall up close, all the poetry was forgotten. The tributaries fall from layers of rocks and merge into the main stream. The main stream rushed down from the rocks tens of meters away, hit the abrupt rocks, and shattered into a vast mist. When it falls on the body, it is not cold at all, but warm. Those water droplets that did not break into mist splashed into white waves and continued their journey.
The rocks were washed out into deep and shallow ravines, and trickling water merged into the rolling water. The rolling water flowed into the surging Yellow River in the canyon dozens of meters away. They chanted, sang, and trumpeted, becoming more and more powerful and gigantic in scale.
This rock, this canyon, and this waterfall cannot be achieved by a drop of water. How many water droplets were left incomplete because of this, and how many water droplets were shattered to pieces because of this? However, the water droplets did not stop. They wanted to smooth out the abrupt rocks and benefit future generations. For this reason, they go on and on...
No wonder Hukou Falls is the heart of the Yellow River, and no wonder the Yellow River is our mother river. Because the Yellow River is as indomitable as the Chinese nation.
