You can visit it when you go to Luoyang, it is quite spectacular. It is even more spectacular if you can go during the sand removal period, which is only one week a year. I went a week late this time, which is a bit regrettable.
"The Yellow River is nine bends and thousands of miles of sand, and the waves and winds blow from the ends of the earth." Going to Xiaolangdi of the Yellow River in summer and experiencing the shock of sand removal in person is worth the trip! As soon as you step into the scenic area, the heat and noise are left behind. Standing on the observation deck, the dam in the distance stretches across, steady and resolute. When sand removal begins, the Yellow River water rushes out of the sand removal hole with mud and sand, like a roaring army, and the aroused water mist creates a rainbow in the sun, like a dream. Walking in the scenic area, the green plants are lush, and the breeze blows on your face, bringing a touch of coolness. The sculptures in the sculpture square stand quietly, silently telling the story behind the project. And the clear lake water forms a wonderful contrast with the majesty of sand removal, which makes people sigh at the magic of nature. There are many tourists during the sand removal period, so it is recommended to plan the itinerary in advance. Ticket purchase and transportation are very convenient, and there are many options for food and accommodation in the surrounding area. This trip to Xiaolangdi not only witnessed the wonders of nature, but also felt the wisdom and courage of human beings to transform nature.
