Xiangride River is the third largest river in Qaidam Basin. Because the stones at the bottom of the river are composed of red gneiss, the rain in the upper reaches washes away the red soil, forming the natural landscape of the brown-red river, so it is called "red river valley". This river carries minerals, which have accumulated over the years to form a dry red riverbed.
In the early spring of March, it is warm and cold at first sight, and the Red River and Bai Bing are intertwined, gorgeous and magnificent. The red sand shale formation in the Red River basin is red in water, so it is also called the Red River. It flows through Chuxiong, Yuxi and Honghe and flows into Vietnam from Hekou County. When I first came to red river valley, I didn't go deep. The strata on both banks are really red, but the water is clear.
Characteristic rivers in China
1, Nujiang
The Nujiang River originated in Jire Paige at the southern foot of Tanggula on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, flowed through Yunnan, then into Myanmar, and finally into the Andaman Sea in the Indian Ocean. The majestic Nujiang Grand Canyon is the most spectacular scenery on the Nujiang River. The mountains on both sides of the canyon are constantly undulating at an altitude of 3000 meters, forming a huge gap. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "beach after beach, the beach is ten feet high". The current in the canyon is swift and swift, and the momentum is like Malik's Pentium.
2. Ili River
Yili River is located between Boluokunu Mountain in the northern branch of Tianshan Mountain and Huck Mountain in the southern branch. It is an inland river in central Asia. After flowing for more than 400 kilometers in China, it flows into Kazakhstan at the Sino-Kazakhstan border and finally into Lake Balkhash in Kazakhstan. It is precisely because of the irrigation of the Ili River that Ili Prefecture, known as the "south of the Great Wall" in Xinjiang, was formed. This magical land can be said to be one of the richest in Xinjiang, with abundant precipitation, pleasant scenery and fragrant melons and fruits.
3. Tarim River
Tarim River is the largest inland river in China. On the Tarim River, there is Bosten Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Xinjiang. It is known as "Xanadu", with vast smoke, water and sky, reeds and winding paths. In addition, there is Gong Geer Peak, one of the most famous peaks in the world, which is located on the bank of Tarim River, covered with ice and snow, with abrupt rocks.
4. Yarlung Zangbo River
Located in Xizang Autonomous Region, the Yarlung Zangbo River is the highest river in China and one of the highest rivers in the world. Its hydropower reserves are very rich, second only to the Yangtze River in China. The Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon is also the largest canyon in the world. It has won two world records: the deepest canyon and the longest canyon in the world. In addition to the Grand Canyon, there are Milin and Medog counties with the most beautiful scenery in Tibet along the Yarlung Zangbo River. Here, you can enjoy all kinds of natural landscapes.
