[Car] Arrive at Huaian Li Canal Cultural Corridor, and there is a parking lot at the entrance. [Shrine] is a block of antique buildings, and the shops in front are all markets such as flowers, birds and fish. [BaseballCap] I saw a tower in the distance and headed straight towards it. When I got closer, I saw the plaque that read "National Master Tower". Since it is not the tourist season, there are few visitors and the tower is not open to the public. The tower should be a good place to view the canal. As shown in the picture, there are many attractions in the scenic area, and we strolled along the shore. [BaseballCap]This is Qingjiangpu. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the governor of the grain transport and the governor of the river were stationed in Qingjiangpu one after another.

It has the reputation of "the thoroughfare of nine provinces" and "the granary of the world". The pavilion on the other side of the river should be the Qingjiangpu Tower, but the bright red color is very abrupt, without layers and is not beautiful. The cruise ships on the canal are all resting. We went back to see the Qingjiang Gate. There was a bronze sculpture of a human-powered elevator at the gate, and next to it was a World Heritage sign [!] [○] Highlights: [One] The Liyun Canal Cultural Corridor, starting from the gate in the north and ending at Tangzi Lane in the south, has a total area of ​​45 square kilometers, with a total length of 15.6 kilometers in the core area, covering an area of ​​about 10.8 square kilometers, hundreds of large and small projects, and a total investment of 26 billion yuan.

Huai'an | The travel destinations hidden in ancient poems. Born and prospered by the water, the stories of Qingjiangpu have been going on for hundreds of years, all starting from this canal. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, due to the prosperity of river transportation and canal transportation, and the important transportation position of 'South Ship North Horse, Nine Provinces Tongqu', it made the canal wharf full of canal boats at that time, and literati also gathered here, new towns rose up on both sides of the canal, so a canal city was born by water. The description of the scenery of the stone wharf by the Ming Dynasty poet is 'The dawn is at the three-forked mouth, and the masts are gathered in ten thousand boats'. Canal transportation, salt transportation, river work, customs, post stations, etc. all entered their heyday, and gardens, temples, tea houses, and wine shops were born. Now a hundred years have passed, everything here has changed, only the canal water keeps flowing, quietly telling the historical memory of the old times. If you want to listen, if you want to understand, you can wait until the night falls and take a painted dragon boat, and tour along with the guide's explanation, let the faded story come back to life. 📷 Canal Culture Corridor (National 4A Tourist Scenic Area) 📍 Yuehe Road, Qingjiangpu District 🛥 You can walk along the river or take a night cruise 💰 Adults 29.9 yuan | Children 20 yuan
