The online map of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project in China comes from the atlas of China National Geographic Map, compiled by the Editorial Committee of China National Geographic Map, published by China Encyclopedia publishing press in November 2011, with a scale of 1:17000000. The route of South to north water diversion can be seen in the map.
South-to-North Water Diversion
The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is a trans-basin water diversion project from the Yangtze River Basin and the rivers in the Southwest, where water flows from the south to the northwest and North China in arid and water shortage areas. According to the topographical conditions between the Yangtze River and the northern water scarce areas, three water transfer lines were planned in the lower, middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, forming the overall planning layout of the east, middle and west routes of the South-to-North Water Diversion.
The west line project builds dams and warehouses in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, including the Tongtian River, the tributaries of the Yalong River, and the Dadu River, and excavates a water transfer tunnel that passes through the watershed between the Yangtze River and the Yellow River in the Bayankala Mountains to divert Yangtze water into the upper Yellow River.
The mid-line project runs from the Danjiangkou Reservoir of the Hanjiang River, a tributary of the northern bank of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River: water, passes through the watershed between the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River, crosses the Yellow River, enters Hebei through the Zhanghe River, and goes north to Beijing and Tianjin.
The East Line project draws Yangtze River water from the vicinity of Yangzhou, Jiangsu. It uses and expands the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and its parallel river channels as the water delivery trunk and branch trunks. It gradually lifts water to the north and connects Hongze Lake and Luoma as reservoirs Lake, Nansi Lake, and Dongping Lake pass through the Yellow River through a tunnel near the Weishan Mountain in Shandong Province. They pass by the Canal, Wei Canal, and South Canal and flow to Tianjin.
