CGTN Europe on Instagram: "The Xiangride River, in Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, northwest China's Qinghai Province, turns red when it enters high water season during the summer.
The crimson hue comes from iron-rich sandstone and sediment being washed into the stream.
The color is especially pronounced this year due to the heavy rainfall China has experienced.
