The famous sayings about the Qiantang River tide are as follows:
1. Poseidon passes through the evil wind from the east and returns, and the waves hit the stone wall of Tianmen and open it. How is it like this in August in Zhejiang? The waves are like snow coming from the mountains. ──Li Bai's "Hengjiang Ci"
2. Thousands of miles of waves are rolling in, and snowflakes are flying towards the Diaoyutai. The crowds of people praised the vast lineup, and the iron horses calmly killed the enemy. ——"Qijue·Tide Watching"
3. When I first heard the sound of thousands of horses, I gradually felt like the Great Wall. Far from Sanshan, the two sides of Gaolian are flat. Lingfeng adds to his anger, reflecting the sun as a false light. If it were Wu Xupo, how would he survive the Yue soldiers? ——Shi Wenjue's "Qiantang River Tide"
The Qiantang River Spring Tide is introduced as follows:
The Qiantang River Spring Tide, also known as the Haining Tide, is the tidal surge at the Qiantang River Estuary in Hangzhou Bay, Zhejiang. One of the world's famous tidal surges and one of the largest astronomical tides in the world. The international geography community calls the Qiantang River, the Amazon River in South America and the Ganges River in South Asia "the three most powerful tidal rivers in the world".
Qianjiang Tide Watching is located in Yanguan Town, Haining, 45 kilometers northeast of Hangzhou. It is a huge tidal wave caused by the centrifugal effect of celestial gravity and the earth's rotation, plus the special terrain of the bell mouth of Hangzhou Bay.
Every year on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the Qianjiang River surges to its peak, with the tide reaching several meters. When the tide comes, the sound is like thunder, overwhelming the mountains and the sea, like thousands of horses galloping, which is a spectacular sight. Tide watching began in the Han and Wei Dynasties (from the first to the sixth century AD) and flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties (from the seventh to the 13th century AD). After more than 2,000 years, it has become a local custom.
As follows:
The Qiantang Tide is famous all over the world, and many tourists come to watch this spectacle every year. Before the arrival of the tide, a tiny white dot first appeared in the distance, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a wisp of silver, and accompanied by bursts of thunderous tide sounds, the white line rolled in.
With almost no time for people to react, the surging tide has roared in. The peak of the tide is 3-5 meters high. The waves behind are catching up with the waves ahead, one layer after another, like a long white belt. It has the potential to overwhelm mountains and seas.
Tides appear regularly, with high tides occurring on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. At this time, the three celestial bodies of the moon, the earth and the sun are almost in the same straight line, and the tidal forces of the moon and the sun act in almost the same direction. The combined force of the two is the largest, and the sea water rises to the highest and falls to the lowest, which is spring tide.
