Connecting Beijing and Hangzhou in east China’s Zhejiang Province, the Grand Canal is the world’s longest artificial waterway.
The 216-km Cangzhou section of the Grand Canal runs through the city, passing through areas such as Wuqiao, Dongguang, and Nanpi. In recent years, Cangzhou has made efforts to build the Grand Canal cultural belt, promoting the integrated development of cultural and tourism industries.
