First bend of Yellow River (Chinese: 黃河第一彎) is located at the common border of Sichuan (四川) province, Qinghai (青海) province and Gansu (甘肅) province of China, but Zoigê County (Tibetan: མཛོད་དགེ་རྫོང་།) is deemed to be the best place to enjoy its splendor.
First bend of Yellow River gets its name for being the first of several bends in the Yellow River.
The altitude here is over 3,000 meters, so the air is quite thin, don’t rush and walk slowly.
From the lookout on the top of the hill, you can have an overlook of both the First Bend of Yellow River and Maqu Grassland (馬曲草原).
Although there is a thunderstorm, the scenery is still beautiful, golden rays shine between the clouds and horizon, a portal to heaven.
