The Qiantang River in east China's Zhejiang Province is home to one of the world's largest tidal bores. Every autumn, the highly anticipated Qiantang River tidal bore arrives, with October 9 expected to mark the peak tide. A distant murmur builds into a deafening roar as a silver wall of water surges upstream—driven by solar and lunar gravity and shaped by the river's unique geography. For centuries, this natural wonder has amazed crowds, standing as a vivid testament to nature's untamable power. Join CGTN to witness more of this spectacular occurrence.
