Information about the Yellow River

The Yellow River flows through Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and Shandong provinces in turn and winds in the north of China. From the air, it looks like a huge "Ji" and vaguely like a totem unique to our nation-the dragon. Kari music and Yueguzong music at the northern foot of Bayannaoer are the positive sources of the Yellow River, located at Yala Dazi Peak in Bayannaoer City, Qinghai Province. The length of the main stream is 4675km, with an average flow of 1 774.5 m3/s, which flows into the Bohai Sea (Laizhou Bay) in Kenli County, Dongying City, Shandong Province. The dividing point of the upper and middle reaches is Hekou Town, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and the dividing point of the middle and lower reaches is Old Jin Meng, Henan Province. The estuary of the Yellow River is1500m wide, generally 500m, with a narrow part of only 50m and a water depth of 2.6m.. In some places, the depth is only1.2m ~1.6m.. Due to sediment deposition, in most sections of the Yellow River with a total length of 5,464 kilometers, the riverbed is higher than the cities and farmland in the basin, and it is constrained by dikes, so it is called "suspended river". The Yellow River flows between Zhongtiaoshan Mountain and Qinling Mountains and passes through Jin Meng, Henan Province. From here, 30 kilometers away from the Yellow River, it is Luoyang, the famous capital of China. Luoyang is one of the eight ancient capitals in China. Since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Cao Wei Dynasty, the Western Jin Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty (Yang Di), the Tang Dynasty (Wu Zhou Dynasty), the Later Liang Dynasty and the Later Tang Dynasty have all established their capitals here, which is called the "Ancient Capital of Nine Dynasties".
