The Grand Canal Cruise Tour in Jining Shandong

The Jining Ancient Canal, commonly known as the Jizhou River or the Grain Transport River, is a part of the Lu Canal.
The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal flows through Jining for about 230 km, connecting a chain of important tourist attractions such as Jining City, Nanyang Ancient Town, Weishan Island, Dushan Island, Nanwang Fenshui Dragon King Temple, and Zhongdu Buddhist Garden, making a cultural heritage corridor with abundant cultural connotations and rich tourism resources.
Jining is a hub for regulating the south-north water transport artery of China. During the the Yuan (1217-1368), Ming (1368-1644), and Qing (1636-1912) dynasties, the highest canal transport administrative agency, i.e. the River Governor’s Office, was established here, making Jining the prestigious “Canal Capital”.
