Hukou River, the largest yellow waterfall in the world

Located at the intersection of Shanxi Province and Shannxi Province on the Loess Plateau, the Hukou Waterfall is the second largest waterfall in China. "Hukou" means the spout of teapot in Chinese. When the Yellow River flows through Jinshang Gorge, the river surface shrinks suddenly from 400 meters to 50 meters, so the river has to roll down from the small gorge, just like water flows through the spout of teapot.

As the color of the waterfall is yellow, Hukou Waterfall has also been named "The largest yellow waterfall in the world."
