The appearance of watching tide in Qiantang River

Every time the Qiantang River rises at high tide, the water level on the river surface rises rapidly, forming a huge water wall and making a roar, just as Malik rushes forward and thousands of troops move forward.

First of all, the place to watch the tide

The spring tide of Qiantang River can be observed at the mouth of Qiantang River in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. There are many places to watch the tide, such as Qiantang River Bridge, Jinjiang Park and Hangzhou Bay Bridge in Binjiang District.

Second, the tidal phenomenon.

High tide: In each tidal cycle, the tide flows into Qiantang River from the ocean and rises gradually, forming a spectacular tidal phenomenon. When the high tide reached its climax, the tide surged forward with great force.

Ebb tide: The tide recedes and the bottom of Qiantang River is exposed. At low tide, the tide quickly recedes, exposing a large riverbed, and some islands and sandbars will also be exposed.

III. Tide observation time and safety instructions

Tidal observation time: The tidal observation time of Qiantang River is usually in the early morning or evening, and the specific time varies with the position of the moon and the sun. You can check the weather forecast and tide table in advance to determine the tide watching time.
