An aerial drone photo taken on Nov. 14, 2024 shows a canal of the South-to-North Water Diversion Middle Route Project on the border between Beijing and north China’s Hebei Province. China’s South-to-North Water Diversion Project has three routes. The first phase of China’s South-to-North Water Diversion Middle Route Project started supplying water in December 2014.
Aimed at increasing water safety and improving the water ecology and environment along the route, the middle route project has been carrying water through canals and pipes from the Danjiangkou reservoir in central China’s Hubei Province to Henan, Hebei, Beijing and Tianjin.
Since operation, the project has transferred over 10.6 billion cubic meters of water to the capital city and benefited more than 16 million people. (Xinhua/Chen Zhonghao)
