SHANGHAI - Tourists are flocking to East China's Zhejiang province in the hope of seeing the biggest tidal bore on the Qiantang River in nine years.
The Qiantang River Tide is China's most famous tidal bore and the world's largest.
The bore is formed at the mouth of the Qiantang River where it joins Hangzhou Bay by the large tidal rise and the bottleneck shape of the bay.
