200231020 & 21 Yellow River (Loess Plateau) and Hukou Waterfall!

 


'''




1. Do you know that 'Loess" means yellow?!!
2. Do you know that the Yellow River starts near the Mongolian side in the west and flows to the East sea in more than 99 turns?
3. Do you know that it separated Shaanxi and Shanxi at the Hukou waterfalls- the mid point of this great river in China? Where is narrows at the place and the water drops over 30m in height here rendering a spectacular vapour and water falls?

The Loess Plateau - such a vast expanse of land formation.
Shaanxi does not get the flooding ! It is the cause of the flooding downstream in Henan area as the yellow sand washed and accumulated over downstream!

An interesting video of this great Yellow River and a peek at a Justice Court and a bandits village around this huge mountainous place where the river flows...
and the teapot like waterfalls at Hukou!


Hukou! Waterfalls!
