Oct. 8,2009 20:19
Mr.Jacky replied:

Though being the second largest river in China, the Yellow River is less important in trading item compared to Yangtze. It has very limited shipping ability due to its unique ice-jam flood and amount of water.

Mrs.happy(England) replied:

It is also called the river of sorrow because of all the floods it is causing.

Sep. 26,2009 07:56
Mr.Wiki(scotland) replied:

It is known as the yellow river because the rocks it runs through(underground) and runs over(as a river)are rich in a type of rock crystal known as loess. this 'loess' turns the colour of the river to a sort of ochre yellow colour - which is where it gets its name from. When the loess is dropped by the river it creates natural dams which makes it flood - the worst flood being in 1938 when it took the lives of some 2,000,000 - 4,000,000 people.

What are some ports along the Yellow River.I'm doing a report on it

Sep. 20,2009 21:31
Ms.Rita replied:

Yellow River does not have many ports as Yangtze River has. It carries too much sand and the sand deposits in the water channel, so it is impossible to form a port. One port is Dongying Port, which is the mouth where the Yellow River meets the sea.

Mr.Awais replied:

Wow, such a big topic. Yellow River is the birth place of Chinese civilization, and of course, many cultural relics have been found in Yellow River basin, such as potteries, ancient coins and bronze works used by ancient yellow river people. They mainly used them as daily necessities or farm tools.

Ms.bob(canada) said:

what is the foods of the yellow river now and the shelter and clothing and water?

Jun. 3,2009 03:59
Mr.Bin replied:

The specialities of Yellow River are carp, date, crab and prawns. The people living along the Yellow River wear the same as the people living in the other area. The water in upper stream is quite clear, in the middle and downstream, because of the Loess Plateau, it carries much sand and becomes yellow-colored.

How far away is the huang he (yellow) river from the great wall?!?!

Apr. 26,2009 19:59
Mr.Su replied:

Hi, you should tell us which sections of the Great Wall you refer to? The Great Wall meets the Yellow River at Lao Niu Wan, Pianguan Pass, Shanxi, so this is probably the nearest place from Yellow River to the Great Wall.
