The cities turned off many landscape light for the convenience of the full solar eclipse, which lasted about four minutes.
Gazers also thronged 3 to the banks of the Yellow and Yangtze rivers Wednesday morning in northwestern Lanzhou and central Wuhan cities as the moon started to shadow the sun at 8:15 a.m..
Partial solar eclipse started at 8:01'27 a.m. in Cona County, Tibet in southwest China, according to an observatory 4 under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
The county was one of the first places in the country to view the solar eclipse.
