Where are the sources of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River?

Yellow River: The source is in the Bayankela Mountain, the estuary is in Shandong, and it flows into the Bohai Sea.

Yangtze River: The source is in the east peak of Geladan, and the estuary is in the Yangtze River Delta, which flows into the East China Sea.

The source of the Yangtze River is the Tuotuo River, and the birthplace of the Yellow River is the ancient Zonglie Basin.

The Qinling Mountains are the watershed of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. In the South Qinling Mountains south of the main ridge, the mountain gradually decreases from north to south, originating from the Bao River, Huangshui River, Youshui River, Meridian River, Xun River, Danjiang River, etc., near the main ridge, and flows into the Han River from north to south or southeast along the surface slope, the Jialing River flows into the Yangtze River in Sichuan and Chongqing, and the Nanluo River flows into the Yellow River from west to east in western Henan.

The middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River are mainly mountainous, and the middle and lower reaches are dominated by plains and hills.

Because the middle section of the river flows through the Loess Plateau of China and carries a large amount of sediment, it is also known as the river with the highest sediment content in the world. However, in Chinese history, the diversion of the lower reaches of the Yellow River has had a huge impact on human civilization.

The source of the Yangtze River is also rich in resources.

The area near the glacial peak of Gradan at an altitude of more than 6,000 meters above sea level yields large pieces of crystal stone several feet long that were used to build magnificent palaces. Lake Maken at the northern foot of the Gakadiru Snow Mountains is home to high-grade magnetite and lead-zinc deposits.

The source of the Yangtze River is the Tuotuo River. Tuotuo River is also known as Tuotuo River, originates from the glacier of Jianggendi such as Snow Mountain on the southwest side of the main peak of Tanggula Mountain Range, Geladandong, the river water flows northward first, enters the floodplain after passing through the valley, the river water is on the river beach full of gravel, the time and minute coincide, forming a braided water system, only to the east near the Hulu Lake, the river surface is developed, the river valley is wide, the river water is shallow, the shallows in the riverbed are listed, and the water flow is scattered. After the river water and the tributary Dangqu merge, it is the Tongtian River.

The Yangtze River flows eastward through Qinghai, Sichuan, Chongqing, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Jiangsu, and Shanghai, and flows into the East China Sea.

The source of the Yellow River is in the northern foothills of Bayan Kala Mountain in Qinghai Province. It is a basin-like beach with a length of more than 20 kilometers from east to west, a width of about 12 kilometers from north to south, and an altitude of more than 4,500 meters"Jogu Zonglie", meaning:"Fry the barley in a pot"。On the southwest slope of the basin, numerous springs gush out of the ground, forming three springs into the basin, gradually forming a small river 6 9 meters wide, which meanders towards the northeastern edge of the basin.

After passing through the starry sea like a starry sky, the smooth flow path gradually reappeared, and entered Zhaling Lake and Ngoling Lake successively. The Yellow River flows into the Bohai Sea through Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, and Shandong.

The starting point of the Yellow River is the ancient Zonglie Basin at the northern foot of the Bayan Kala Mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the end point is the Bohai Sea. The source of the Yangtze River is the Tuotuo River on the southwest side of the main peak of the Tanggula Mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China, from west to east, and the final end is in the East China Sea.

Located in the southern part of Qinghai Province in China, with an average altitude of 3,500 4,800 meters, the source area of the three rivers is the hinterland of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the roof of the world, and the headwaters of the world-famous rivers that gave birth to the Chinese nation and the long history of civilization in the Indochina Peninsula: the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River (known as the Mekong River abroad). Its geographical location is 31°39 north latitude'～36°12'Longitude 89°45 East'～102°23'The administrative area covers 16 counties in the four Tibetan Autonomous Prefectures of Yushu, Guoluo, Hainan and Huangnan and Tanggula Township in Golmud City, with a total area of 10,000 square kilometers.

"The Tuotuo River, the upper source of the Yangtze River, comes from the Geladan Winter Snow Mountain in the Tanggula Mountains on the southwestern border of Qinghai Province," he said

The Yangtze River and the Yellow River are the birthplaces of the Yangtze River

1. Yangtze River:

The Yangtze River originates in the southwest side of the Geladan Winter Peak in the Tanggula Mountains of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The main stream flows through 11 provincial-level administrative regions including Qinghai Province, Sichuan Province, Yunnan Province, Chongqing Municipality, Hubei Province, Hunan Province, Jiangxi Province, Anhui Province, Jiangsu Province and Shanghai Municipality.

2. Yellow River:

The Yellow River originates in the ancient Zonglie Basin at the northern foot of Bayankala Mountain on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, flows from west to east through nine provinces: Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan and Shandong, and finally flows into the Bohai Sea. The precipitation in the basin is small, mainly dryland agriculture, dry in winter and dry in spring, and the precipitation is concentrated in summer, autumn, July and August.

Tributaries of the Yellow River:

The tributaries on the left and right banks of the Yellow River are asymmetrically distributed, and their inflow is uneven along the way, and the growth rate of the basin area along the length of the river varies greatly. The area of the left bank of the Yellow River is 10,000 square kilometers, and the area of the right bank basin is 10,000 square kilometers, accounting for 39% and 61% of the total catchment area of the river, respectively.

first-class tributaries of more than 100 square kilometers, 96 on the left bank, and a basin area of 230,000 square kilometers; There are 124 on the right bank, with a basin area of 10,000 square kilometers. Between Longmen and Tongguan, the area of the basin on the right bank is three times that of the left bank.

The average growth rate of the catchment area of the whole river is 138 square kilometers per kilometer. The upstream section is 3472 kilometers long, and the area growth rate is 111 square kilometers per kilometer. The middle reaches of the river are 1206 kilometers long, with many tributaries and an area growth rate of 285 square kilometers per kilometer. The downstream section of the river is 786 kilometers long, with very few tributaries and an area growth rate of only 29 square kilometers per kilometer.

The Yangtze River originates"Roof of the World"The southwest side of the Geladan Winter Peak in the Tanggula Mountains of the Qingda and Lunzang Plateaus. The northern source of the Yellow River originates from the Zhaqu at the southern foot of the Chahasila Mountain, a branch of the Bayankala Mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in Qinghai Province, the southern source originates from the Kariqu at the northern foot of the various Qingxinzi Khaya Mountains, and the western source originates from the Yuegu Zongliequ in the western part of the Xingzhu Haixi. The main stream of the Yangtze River runs from west to east through central China.
