About This Podcast

The Yellow River, the second longest river in China, is regarded as a shaping force in the history, economy, and culture of northern China. Today, around 100 million people live within its water basin, making up nearly 9% of the country’s population. Join us in this podcast as we travel along the river’s upper, middle, and lower reaches, and explore the lives of the herders, farmers, boatmen, fishermen, and eco-activists who share a close bond with the river.
