In China, the quiet waters of the Great Canal run through the country on more than 1,700 kilometers. The creation of this superhuman building– which began 2,500 years ago – required millions of workers and permanently transformed the landscapes on the eastern part of the country.

From Hangzhou to Beijing, this imposing building served as a link between the various provinces of the Middle Kingdom and allowed the economic development of the cities along its borders.
