Hukou Waterfall | A World Wonder on the Yellow River

🌊 The Yellow River, the mother river of the Chinese nation, boasts the breathtaking Hukou Waterfall😍! 'The waters of the Yellow River come from the sky, rushing to the sea never to return,' praised by the great Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai in his ode to the Yellow River🎵. 🧡 Located at the border of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, Hukou Waterfall is the only yellow waterfall on the Yellow River, known as 'the heart of the Yellow River, the soul of the nation'👍. The magnificent sight inspires awe. When you hear the stirring melody of 'Defend the Yellow River'🎶, 'The wind roars, the horses neigh, the Yellow River is raging, the Yellow River is raging!', you will be deeply moved😲! 🌊 Standing at the edge of the waterfall, you see the turbulent water rushing down like a herd of wild horses🐎, roaring towards the bottomless abyss. The deafening sound is like nature performing a grand symphony🎵. The mist raised by the waterfall, under the sunlight, forms a beautiful rainbow🌈, making one feel as if in a fairyland. Each water droplet is full of vitality, jumping, laughing, dancing💃, indiscriminately nourishing the soul of every visitor.
