In pics: Xiaobai River under an evening sky
The sun sets over Xiaobai River, a section of the Yellow River, in Baotou, North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region, on Dec 2. As deepest winter approaches and temperatures drop, sections of the Yellow River in Baotou city begin to freeze, creating a situation where ice and water are mixed. But the Xiaobai River section is an exception, and the water continues to flow. [Photo provided to chinadaily.com.cn]
