Huanghe Palace

Huanghe palace is located in Zhongwei "dance of the river" cultural theme park. The concept of the exhibition of the Yellow River Palace is: to build the Yellow River Palace into a comprehensive theme exhibition hall of the Yellow River formation, the promotion of human civilization, the Yellow River science popularization and education, the ecological protection publicity, and the appreciation of minerals and stones. The exhibition contents of the Yellow River Palace are divided into three parts: the first part is about the geography and geomorphology of the Yellow River Basin. The main contents include the formation of the Yellow River, the source of the Yellow River, the Yellow River reach, the main tributaries of the Yellow River, the Yellow River lakes, the Yellow River Wetlands, the panoramic sand table of the Yellow River Basin, and the Yellow River water conservancy. The second part is the human history of the Yellow River Basin. The main content is the introduction and cultural relics display of the representative historical and cultural relics of the nine provinces along the Yellow River (Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong). It focuses on the important historical relics and Hui folk relics in Ningxia, and arranges the special exhibition of Damaidi rock paintings. The third part is the Yellow River Ecological biology, which mainly shows the ecological profile of the Yellow River Basin, various animal and plant specimen models of the Yellow River Basin, the Yellow river rocks and Zhongwei minerals.

Huanghe Palace

The Yellow River Palace is located on the North Bank of the Yellow River in Zhongwei City, Western Ningxia. Looking up from afar, the surging Yellow River water, like a golden ribbon, dancing, flows slowly from west to east from the south of the park. Zhongwei area has been said since ancient times that "the Yellow River in the world is rich in Ningxia, the richest in Zhongwei". It is also a bright pearl in Ningxia's "golden bank of the Yellow River" urban economic belt.

The main building of the Yellow River Palace is 36.9 meters high, which creatively adopts the poetic implication of Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai's "the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky" to condense the water of the Yellow River into a water drop architectural form. There is a pedestrian ramp along the inner wall of the building, with an elevator and a viewing platform of more than 80 square meters in the middle. Below the main building of the water drop is the Yellow River Museum.

brief introduction

Zhongwei has a long history, and there were human activities in the Paleolithic age. Fengan county and Lingwu county were set up in 590, the 10th year of emperor kaihuang, and Mingsha county was set up in the 19th year of emperor kaihuang. In the second year of emperor Zhongzong of Tang Dynasty (706), Fengan County went to Mingsha county. In the Yuan Dynasty, Yingli Prefecture was established under the jurisdiction of Ningxia road. In the first year of Jianwen (1399), the system of "Wei" and "Suo" was established, and "Zhongwei" was established here. Qing Yongzheng three years (1725) cut Wei County, known as Zhongwei county. During the period of the Republic of China and after the founding of the people's Republic of China, it was still called Zhongwei county. On April 28, 2004, Zhongwei county was abolished, and prefecture level Zhongwei city was established. Zhongning and Haiyuan counties were assigned to the jurisdiction of Zhongwei city.

Wanli Yellow River first enters Zhongwei from Heishan Gorge of Gansu Province. Zhongwei is rich in rice, wheat, melon, vegetables and other agricultural products, and is one of the main grain bases in Ningxia. Zhongwei is rich in mineral resources and has a dominant position in the whole region. 27 kinds of minerals have been discovered, 16 have been explored and 12 have been developed and utilized. Zhongwei's local products are: two fur, wolfberry, selenium sand melon, red dates, etc. There are more than ten kinds of snacks waiting for you to enjoy.

Zhongwei is a well-developed transportation hub in Northwest China. Baotou Lanzhou railway, Baotou China Railway and Taiyuan Zhongyin railway all pass through here. Zhongwei's roads also extend in all directions.

Zhongwei has rich and unique tourist attractions, such as Shapotou, a national 5A scenic spot, Danxia landform tourist area in Sikouzi, Jinsha Island Resort, Baoan Temple, a high temple integrating Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, Drum Tower, great wall of Ming Dynasty, Tonghu grassland, Shikong Buddha Temple, tiandushan grottoes, Jiucaiping Gongbei, etc.

The Yellow River flows into the sea

2.47 million years ago, the elevation of the plateau rose and the mountain undulation increased, forming a new lake landform and becoming an inland lake with many independent water systems. 1.6 million years ago, due to the strong Himalayan orogeny, the West uplifted and the East sank, and the retrogressive erosion between lakes was accelerated (the erosion of river water on the surface is various). In addition to continuously widening and deepening the river, it also erodes the source of the valley and valley, constantly moving the source of the river upward and prolonging the valley. This kind of erosion is called retrogressive erosion. Traceable erosion can occur in any section of the whole course of a river, and its speed can also be very fast. For example, as a result of traceable erosion of gullies in the Loess Plateau of China, the gully head can advance several meters to tens of meters every year. Finally, between 100000 and 10000 years ago, the Yellow River system, which runs through the whole line and flows into the sea, was formed.

It flows into the Bohai Sea in Kenli County, Shandong Province, with a total length of 5464 kilometers and a drainage area of 795000 square kilometers.

Exhibition area 2: exhibition area 2: Cradle of Chinese mother nation

In ancient times, the Yellow River Basin had a humid climate and abundant species, which had a great impact on human civilization. The Yellow River is the cradle of the Chinese nation and the birthplace of Chinese civilization.

The third exhibition area: Yellow River Resources

The crust of the Yellow River Basin has experienced hundreds of millions of years of changes, forming a variety of geological environment, rich in mineral resources. In the hundreds of millions of years before the large-scale uplift of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, the Yellow River Basin had a pleasant climate and rich species. Since more than 2 million years ago, most areas of the Yellow River Basin have not been damaged by glaciers, and have become refuges for many animals, which has made the yellow River Basin rich in biological species and resources.
