The Grand Canal, a symbol of Chinese culture, reflects the wisdom and effort of the Chinese people and serves as a bridge connecting China to the world. In response to President Xi Jinping's call to " protect, inherit, and utilize" Grand Canal culture, the series Exploring China Along the Grand Canal introduces its history and significance. This multi-volume work features regional editions, including Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shandong. The Jiangsu volume, A Journey Through Jiangsu, delves into the canal's role in water management, transportation, and cultural exchange across Jiangsu's thirteen cities. It traces the canal's evolution from a trade route to a cultural conduit, showcasing local customs, traditions, and cuisine shaped by the canal. Through a " one story per section" format, historical facts are brought to life as engaging narratives, making history accessible and captivating.
