Aerial view of the Tai'erzhuang Ancient City section of the Grand Canal, traversing the poetic charm of a water town through a thousand years

Hey folks👋, today I absolutely have to tell you about the Tai'erzhuang Ancient City section of the Grand Canal—it's truly amazing!​
🌊The moment I stepped into this part of the Grand Canal, I was instantly captivated by the gently flowing river.
It stretches 3 kilometers long and is the only remaining ancient waterway of the Tai'erzhuang section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, like a time bridge connecting countless stories through the ages.
The painted boat cuts through the quietly flowing canal, engaging in a dialogue between the boat and the water town.
The water is as clear as a mirror, reflecting the sky and clouds as they drift together, while the ancient wharf on the shore stands quietly. Its weathered textures seem to tell us stories of the bustling grain transport of the past, and the clamor of a thousand racing sails still echoes in the ears.
