Shanxi Shaanxi Grand Canyon

Shanxi Shaanxi Grand Canyon

Shanxi Shaanxi Grand Canyon is located at the junction of Shanxi Province and Inner Mongolia. It is bounded by the Yellow River. It is adjacent to Pianguan County in Shanxi Province in the south, Qingshuihe County in Inner Mongolia in the north and Zhungeer banner in Ordos Plateau in the West. The Yellow River enters Shanxi from here, the Great Wall inside and outside meets here, and the Grand Canyon of Shanxi, Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia starts from here. The geomorphological features of the vicissitudes of China's Loess Plateau are highlighted here. At the same time, there is also a magnificent landscape of big rivers. This is the place where the Great Wall shakes hands with the Yellow River. It is one of the ten most beautiful canyons in China. The whole laoniuwan tourist area consists of three bays and one valley, namely baozi tawan, laoniuwan, four tawan and yangjiachuan canyon.

summary

After the Yellow River came out of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, it went through mountains and mountains, with nine twists and eighteen turns, and then went down to Taohua Valley in Zhengzhou. Its face changed suddenly, from digging Valley to sinking sand to build land. Therefore, Taohua valley became the top of the world's largest land Delta in North China Plain, and the valleys of the Yellow River were all distributed above Taohua valley.

Although there are some famous valleys such as Longyang Gorge, Jishi Gorge, Liujia gorge, Hongshan gorge, Qingtong gorge and Sanmen Gorge, they are separated by a series of wide valley basins.

Only from Hekou town in Inner Mongolia to Yumenkou in Shanxi Province, the longest continuous canyon on the main stream of the Yellow River, Shanxi Shaanxi Grand Canyon, is formed.

In Hetao area, the Yellow River, which is trending from east to west, has a sharp turn from north to south. It moves southward from the Ordos Plateau, with Luliang on the left and Northern Shaanxi on the right. It is deep in the Loess Plateau. The valley depth is more than 100 meters, and the valley bottom elevation gradually drops from 1000 meters to less than 400 meters. The narrowest part of the riverbed, such as hukou, is only 30 to 50 meters.

Because of the loess gully, mud and sand, the amount of sand coming from Shanxi Shaanxi Grand Canyon reaches accounts for 56% of the whole Yellow River, although its drainage area is only 15% of the Yellow River.

It can be said that the real "yellow" river is achieved here, with deep streams flowing and turbid waves emptying. The typical features of the Yellow River gorge are gathered here, among which the Longmen gorge above Yumenkou is the most spectacular.

Li Bai said that "the Yellow River will come to Kunlun in the west, roaring thousands of miles to touch the dragon's gate", which just points out that the Grand Canyon of Shanxi and Shaanxi reached its final climax here.

The competition between water and stone has made the Grand Canyon of Shanxi and Shaanxi, a magical, beautiful and majestic Gallery of the Yellow River.

Due to the effect of the natural hydrodynamic force, wind force and freeze-thaw cycle of the Yellow River, this section of the river bank has formed a poetic natural water erosion landscape spectacle. Its form expression is very artistic. Some are like dense "heavenly script", some are like animals and plants, some are like musical symbols, and some are like winding "labyrinth", which can be called the true portrayal of the soul of the Yellow River.

With the change of light in different seasons, she shows different charm.

Often stand at his feet, look up and see his great shore, mind turbulent, full of emotion.

Lament the uncanny workmanship of nature, or gentle, or strong.

Standing here, I can't distinguish these two concepts for a moment. Maybe everything in the world is mutually reinforcing, or maybe nature is making people.
