View 0 photos, or upload your photo.

The Yellow River flows from Gansu, and meets the White River at the first bay with a shape of Y. The hill-like plateau looks like an island over the river. The transect diameter of the Yellow River here is 300 meters, while that of the White River is 400 meters.

There is a hill in the front of Suoke Tibetan Temple. Visitors can see the above scenery on the top of this hill.

In the summer evenings, the evening clouds shine the land and some smokes flutter from tents on the grasslands. In the late fall and winter, sands are blown by the strong wind over the land. After sun sets, the whole area is covered with a cold color. In winter, it is very splendid to see when the Yellow River is frozen with the White River.
