Dujiangyan Scenic Area
Dujiangyan Scenic Area is located on the main stream of the Minjiang River west of Dujiangyan City. It was built around 256 BC by Li Bing, the governor of the Shu Prefecture in the Qin Dynasty, and his son. It is currently a well - preserved ancient water conservancy project in China. The project consists of three main projects, namely the Yuzui Dividing Dike, the Feishayan Spillway, and the Baopingkou Water Inlet, as well as auxiliary projects such as the Baizhang Dyke and the Renzi Dyke. It separates the surging Minjiang River into the outer river and the inner river. The outer river is for flood discharge, while the inner river is for water diversion and irrigation, turning the Western Sichuan Plain into the "Land of Abundance". With its magnificent clear water, precipitous cliffs, strange peaks, towering ancient trees and profound cultural heritage, Dujiangyan rightfully becomes a world - famous scenic spot. There are many famous scenic spots, including the South Bridge, Lidui Ancient Garden, Wodie (iron bars buried underground as a reference for water volume control), Yan Gong Dao (the path dedicated to those who have made contributions to the Dujiangyan Irrigation System), Zhang Song's Ginkgo Tree, Qingxi Garden, Fulong Temple, the three main projects at the head of the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, the Yuzui Dividing Dike, the Feishayan Spillway, the Baopingkou Water Inlet, Anlan Bridge, Erwang Temple, Qinyan Tower, Songmao Ancient Road, the Memorial Archway Commemorating the Good Governance of Water Conservancy by Xiu Zhi - jing, Yuwang Palace, Yulei Pass, Fengqiwo, Doudi Platform, Xuanwei Gate, and the City God Temple.
