The Yellow River




The Following two photos were taken while I was on the airplane!


Yellow River, the cradle of Chinese people and the birthplace of traditional Chinese culture, is the second largest river in China. It rises in Bayankela Mountain, Qinghai Province, and rolls into the Bohai Sea through Jinan, winding through 9 provinces, 300-plus cities and counties, with whole length at 5464km. The scene of the Yellow River is very spectacular, with yellow water, wide stream and rushing waves.
Spanning across the river, Jinan bridge of Yellow River is a concrete suspension bridge, updated in technology, exquisite in design and unique in appearance. The whole length of the bridge reaches 2,023m with main spanning hole reaching 220m in length.
