The Qiantang River in Zhejiang Province, in the Chinese mainland, boasts the world's largest tidal bore. A tidal bore is a strong tide that pushes up a river against the current when a river empties into an ocean or sea. The most impressive displays occur during the eighth month of the Chinese lunar calendar. Every year, thousands gather to witness this natural spectacle, marveling at the powerful surge and rhythmic waves that define the Qiantang River's unique charm.
