Picturesque scenery of Shaying River

Photo taken on May 16 shows the picturesque Shaying River curving gracefully through the northern part of Xiangcheng, a county-level city of Zhoukou city of Henan province, presenting a vivid panorama of the eastern Central Plain. Quiet rural villages lined the riverbanks in the foreground, cargo ships sailed steadily downstream, while streams of vehicles crossed the Ningluo Expressway Bridge in the distance, together painting a scene of tranquility and vitality.
