Two photos of China



Original credit unknown except for the ChinaPhotoPress tag. The top one shows, I assume, the harvesting of minerals from an evaporation bed. In the bottom photo a sediment-filled river meets bluewater. I don't know the city. Any ideas?

  2. This is Chongqing, the biggest city in size and in population in China. The sediment-filled river is Yangtze River and the blue water one is Jialing River.
