In recent days, the water level of a section of the Yellow River in Pinglu county of Yuncheng, Shanxi province, has receded due to water and sediment regulation operations, exposing a vast expanse of the riverbed and creating a breathtaking "Tree of the Earth" landscape.

Viewed from the air, these erosion patterns resemble natural veins of the earth, intricately formed with diverse shapes that seamlessly blend with the lush riverbank greenery.

This unique ecological transformation of the Yellow River showcases the marvelous spectacle sculpted by the forces of nature and the passage of time.
