世界上最大的黄色瀑布
壶口瀑布位于黄河中游的山西省和陕西省交界处,紧邻壶口镇。北依吕梁山脉,南靠黄土高原,西临临汾盆地,是一处壮丽而独特的自然景观。地理坐标为东经110°45′~110°45′,北纬36°35′~36°35′。 壶口瀑布区域东西长约50km,宽约20km,面积1000k㎡。壶口瀑布本身长约50米,宽度因季节而异,最宽可达50米以上,落差在20米左右,湖面海拔1030米;瀑布的周边地区以其独特的地质结构和地形特征而著称,包括丰富的河谷、河滩和岩层。 壶口瀑布是黄河上最大的瀑布,因其激流汇入狭窄的山谷而形成。当黄河水流穿过窄缝时,水流冲击岩石,形成气势磅礴的瀑布景观。瀑布周围的自然环境非常丰富,河水带来的泥沙使得壶口瀑布独具特色,呈现出壮观的黄色水幕。
The Hukou Waterfall is located at the border of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, close to Hukou Town. It is bordered by the Lüliang Mountains to the north, the Loess Plateau to the south, and the Linfen Basin to the west, presenting a magnificent and unique natural landscape. The geographical coordinates are 110°45′E to 110°45′E, and 36°35′N to 36°35′N.
The Hukou Waterfall area stretches approximately 50km from east to west, with a width of about 20km, covering an area of 1000k㎡. The waterfall itself is about 50 meters long, with its width varying by season, reaching over 50 meters at its widest, and a drop of about 20 meters. The elevation of the lake surface is 1030 meters. The surrounding area of the waterfall is known for its unique geological structure and topographical features, including abundant river valleys, river beaches, and rock layers.
Hukou Waterfall is the largest waterfall on the Yellow River, formed by the river's torrential flow entering a narrow valley. As the Yellow River water passes through a narrow gap, it strikes the rocks, creating a powerful and imposing waterfall scene. The surrounding natural environment is very rich, and the silt brought by the river water gives the Hukou Waterfall its unique feature, presenting a spectacular yellow curtain of water.
