World's Largest Tidal Bore Forms in China's Qiantang River
Thousands of tourists gathered in Haining City of east China's Zhejiang Province to appreciate the world's largest tidal bore at the Qiantang River around the traditional Mid Autumn Festival holiday from Thursday to Saturday.
The Qiantang River tidal bore is a world-renowned natural phenomenon known for its momentum and charm caused by the gravitational pull of the moon. The best time to view the tidal bore is between the 15th and 18th day of the eighth month on the Chinese lunar calendar, exactly the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Due to the Typhoon Meranti and Malakas, the tidal bore this year is higher than those of previous years.
The nine-meter-high and 650-meter-long Laoyancang Dam, 12 kilometers west of Guanxi Town, is a best site to view the majestic scene. Tide, galloping like horses, hits against the dam and retreats after rising in the air, creating one of the two eye-catching scenes of the tidal bore, namely "back-flow bore."
The back-flow bore then hits the seawall with the water rising up to 15 meters high, which is another unique scene known as "soaring bore." More on: http://www.cctvplus.com/news/20160917/8032313.shtml#!language=1
