what is the best place to watch Qiantang River spring tide? From August to September every year, many people in Zhejiang watch the rare Qiantang River spring tide. Did you see the ghost King tide yesterday? On September 8, 2017, citizens and tourists watched the ghost King tide in Hangzhou section of Qiantang River. So when is the best time and place to watch the Qiantang River spring tide? Let's learn about it with the small edition of sihai.com!
It was July 18 of the lunar calendar, the best time to watch the Qianjiang spring tide known as the "ghost King tide" once a year.
However, due to the low water level of Qiantang River, the momentum of "ghost King tide" is far less than that of previous years, but it also allows citizens and tourists watching the tide at the riverside to calm down without running away from the riverbank early.
Qiantang River spring tide is the largest in August 18 of the lunar calendar, and the tide can be seen from the first to the fifth day of every month, from the 15th to the 20th, so there are 120 days in a year to watch the tide.
In 2017, the best viewing time of Qiantang River is around the Mid Autumn Festival. Among them, 1-2 p.m. (August 18 of the lunar calendar) is the best.
The best place to watch the Qiantang River tide in 2017
1. The first best point is a section of seawall in the southeast of Yanguan Town, Haining City.
The tide here is the most prosperous, and it is characterized by a line of lines, so it has the reputation of "a line of tide of Haining pagoda". At the beginning of the tide, a white drill across the river appeared in the sky, accompanied by a rumbling sound, just like the thundering rolling in the sky. The tide came from far and near. It's like a group of white swans in a line. The head of the tide is pushing and hugging, and the sound is getting stronger. In an instant, the peak of the tide, like a white practice, rushes to the front of the eyes. It rises a three or four meter high water wall and stands upright on the surface of the river. It pours down the waves, splashes beads and splashes jade, which is like a galloping horse. The tide surged to the seawall, setting off a 9-meter-high tide peak. As expected, the billows emptied, turning over the river and down the sea and mountains to destroy it! This cluster of radiated water and flowers with sounds and sounds is spectacular and powerful. It is said that one year, a ton of 'Zhenhai master' was rushed more than 100 meters away. When the tide reverberated, it flew away again. Someone wrote: "the tide splashes snow and floats in the sky, and the tide rushes to thunder and is silent", which accurately describes the spectacular scene of the tide.
2. At the second best place to watch the tide, Babao, 8 kilometers east of Yanguan Town, you can enjoy the wonderful sight of the collision of the tide heads.
After the tide rose into the estuary, the tide head gradually divided into two sections because of the different topography of the north and south sides, the speed of the tide is fast in the South and slow in the north. The southern part of the rapid development is called the South tide, while the northern part of the tide head, which is not ahead, is called the East tide in the eyes of the tide watchers on the north bank. When the South tide surged to the south bank and was swung back, it turned around and rushed northward. It just collided with the late East tide. All of a sudden, a loud noise, like a mountain collapse, a river towering thousands of snow peaks, it is really shocking!
3. You can enjoy the "return (return) tide" in the old salt warehouse 12 kilometers west of Yanguan town.
Here, there is a "T-shaped dam" with a height of 9 meters and a length of 650 meters, which runs straight into the heart of the river, just like a giant arm to turn the tide. At this point, the tide momentum has been slightly reduced, but when it reaches the T-shaped dam head, it is still like ten thousand lions roaring and leaping, with thousands of waves. Then the tide turned, back to the Bank of the pond, straight to the top of the pond to watch the tide. The sudden attack of the return tide often makes the tide watchers unprepared and frightened.
