EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the awe-inspiring natural wonder of The Bore on the River Tsien-Tang-Kiang in China. Taken circa 1890, this image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the raw power and beauty of this geological phenomenon. The Bore, also known as the Tsien-Tang Rapids, is a series of powerful rapids and whirlpools located near the eastern end of the Grand Canal in China. Formed by the convergence of the Yangtze and Tsien-Tang rivers, the Bore is a result of the dramatic change in water levels as the river flows over a shallow, rocky section of the riverbed. This photograph provides a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse of the untamed river before the construction of the Hongqiang Dam in 1952, which tamed the rapids and transformed the area into a popular tourist destination. The image reveals the turbulent waters, with white foam and spray flying high into the air, creating a breathtaking scene. The Chinese people have long been fascinated by The Bore, with many legends and stories surrounding its power and significance. This photograph serves as a reminder of the natural wonders that once existed in China and the rich history that continues to shape the country today. The intricate details of the photograph, from the ripples on the water to the trees lining the riverbank, transport us back in time and offer a glimpse into the past. This image is a testament to the beauty and power of nature and the importance of preserving our history for future generations to enjoy.
