Summary
I missed the tidal bore in Qiantang River when I visited Hangzhou in 2007. This time I arrived well ahead of the tidal bore time and caught the noisy bore in action. Though not very impressive as I thought, it was still bigger than a ripple. You have to be there in person to appreciate its full beauty as the thundering noise could not be captured by the camera. The turbulence is visible as the still river surface was disturbed behind the bore head. It resembles waves reaching beaches. It is in fact a wave.
