brief introduction

Lion's head is a large stone protruding from the sea, which is named after the shape of a lion. According to the measurement of the hydrological station, the average tidal range in Shizitou area is 5.6 meters, and the maximum tidal range is 8.93 meters. In the first day of the Lunar New Year and the second and third days after the 15th day, the tide can be seen. Standing on the stone, a few miles away, a black line slowly moves forward. In a twinkling of an eye, the black line bursts of water and makes a rumbling train sound. At this time, the tide in front of us had risen rapidly, usually one or two feet high. The sand rolled over the beach, sometimes straight, sometimes winding, like an army advancing westward, unstoppable. After the tide, it is followed by a silent tide, but a close look is very turbulent. The tide near the shore is overflowing the beach, and in a moment, the beach has become a torrent. On the first day of the Lunar New Year and the half day of the lunar new year, it's midnight tide. The time of high tide is 12 noon. Please don't miss the time when you go to see the tide.

There is a pavilion at the source of Qianjiang River, named "Yuanting", inscribed by Bu Xinsheng. Mr. Bu is from Haiyan and a pioneer of China's reform and opening up. With the fame of Bu Xinsheng, the source of Qiantang River, Haiyan factory, the pioneer of China's reform, Qinshan nuclear power plant, the source of nuclear power, and Jinjiu nuclear power plant has a deeper meaning Refuge, the source of friendship between China and South Korea, has been called "four sources" by Haiyan people and is proud of it.

The beginning of the spring

Qianjiangchao is famous for its magnificent scenery, which attracts millions of Chinese and foreign tourists every year. It is a different scene to watch the beginning of the Qianjiang tide at its source. Shizitou in Huangshawu of Nanbei lake, a provincial scenic spot, is an ideal place for people to watch the beginning of Qianjiang River. It's only five or six minutes by bus or ten minutes' walk to Shizitou by the sea.

Shizitou is a rock protruding from the sea and connected with the foot of yingkeshan. From a distance, the rock looks like a lion just down the mountain, so it is named. To the east of Shizitou is an open beach. There are several deep trenches on the beach, which remind you of the ferocity of the tide here. Overlooking the south bank, you can see a clear coastline; in the southeast, you can see the "mirage of stone sails" which is one of the eight sceneries of Shupu, and the stone sails in the sea are close at hand; in the East, menglushan and Shizishan face each other in the distance, and the sea and sky are connected in the distance.

At noon, standing on the lion's head, you can hear the sound of tides in the distance. Along the way, there is a gray black line on the river about a few miles away from shitoutou, moving slowly to the northwest. It's like a group of fishermen singing happy fishing songs and walking towards us with light steps. After a while, the gray and black lines were splashing and getting closer to the lion's head. The sound was like the sound of a train. At this time, the tide in front of it rose rapidly, at least one or two feet high. The sand rolled up did not cross the beach. Sometimes it was straight, sometimes it was tactful and tortuous. It was like a brave army marching westward, unstoppable. At this time, people can't help but think of the verse of Yang Zai, a poet of the Yuan Dynasty, and Zheng Banqiao, one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou, "how strong the tide is at the beginning, such as Fu, such as Gangzha you or not", "if broken, if continued, most affectionate".

After the leap head, purple followed by a silent, flat and soft tide. In detail, the current is very turbulent. The tide on the shore, on the other hand, flows eastward and slowly onto the beach. In an instant, the beach becomes a torrent, and the water rises higher and higher, and more and more fiercely. The reason why the source of Qianjiang tide was formed near yazitou is that the distance between Nanhuizui of Shanghai and Zhenhai on the South Bank of Hangzhou bay port is about 100 km, and the width between Changshan sluice and xissanchan river is only 20 km, forming a huge trumpet shape. Under the influence of sand ridges, the tide in front of it rapidly steepens, thus forming the beginning of Qianjiang tide. The average tidal range in Shizitou is 5. The maximum tidal range is 8. 93 meters. The first two or three days after the first day and the fifteenth day of each lunar month, especially on the 18th day of the eighth lunar month, you can see the beginning of Qianjiang tide. The source of Qianjiang tide, with its shape, sound and potential, shows its charm to tourists and brings them endless aftertaste.

Therefore, it has gradually become an important part for people to visit the South and North Lake.
