Cangyuan River: A tranquil oasis in Shangdong's county

In the heart of Linyi county, situated in Linyi city in East China's Shandong province, the Cangyuan River flows like a ribbon, bearing witness to the county's evolution.

Over the last few years, Linyi county has prioritized the ecological management of the Cangyuan River. This initiative, aimed at enhancing the well-being of local residents, focuses on coordinating the development of water projects, cultural enrichment and commerce. The result is a transformed urban landscape that is characterized by an improved natural ecology.

Today, the Cangyuan River reflects serene beauty with its clear, rippling waters that attract flocks of water birds. Along the riverbank's fitness trail, locals engage in various activities, be it jogging, leisurely strolls, or simply enjoying the sunrise and sunset. (Edited by Zhou Yunlai)
