The water levels of the Yellow River in Henan Province are relatively low in winter. As the waters recede, irregular channels form in the many exposed sandbars in the riverbed, creating a magical landscape reminiscent of the "Tree of the Earth." It's a scene that vividly reflects the grandeur of nature.
