“The eighteenth tide in August is so spectacular that there is nothing in the world.” The spectacular and beautiful tides of the Qiantang River have long been famous all over the world.
Although the eighteenth day of the eighth lunar month is the best time to watch the tide, the eighteenth of the sixth lunar month can also be seen.
Today is Toufu, and it is the 18th day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar. In addition to the weekend, many tourists come to Jiuxi to play. At about 4:30 in the afternoon, someone photographed the tide.
The embankment of Qiantang River under the Liuhe Pagoda, the tide came from far away, slapped the shore, and rolled up the water for a while, and the sound of the tide came to my ears.
On the river surface near the Qiantang River Bridge, three patrol boats line up in a diagonal line.
There are also staff patrolling the riverside with horns and rescue ropes beside the dam.
At around 4:20 p.m., the river was still peaceful and calm, and the waterfowl stood motionless among the rocks in the river.
Just after 4:30 p.m., looking east under the Qiantang River Bridge, the tide was roaring, and the tide was hitting the river embankment, rolling up the water and turning back into the river. At this time, the three patrol boats also rose and fell with the tide. . The tide continued to go straight to the T-shaped dam in front of Jiuxi, and the water splashes could be seen at a distance of thousands of meters.
Under the Qiantang River Bridge, a father and son’s electric cars parked under the bridge, waiting before the tide came, and the father didn’t even have time to take off his helmet.
“It’s coming! It’s coming!” The children shouted loudly when they saw the rolling tide in the distance.
When the tide hit the embankment and rolled up the waves, the sound even covered the roar of the train on the bridge, the children were even more excited and shouted even louder, almost breaking the sound.
The child’s father said: “We were just walking around today. We happened to pass under the bridge. Seeing that the tide was coming, we took the child to see it. August 18 is the best day to watch the tide. It’s very famous, I can see it today on June 18, I’m very excited.”
