Pinglu Canal becomes new leisure destination for local residents

Pinglu Canal's once-neglected bank is now a vibrant seawall. Mangroves thrive, locals livestream, cycle, and stroll. The 2.46km "corridor of well-being" boosts safety, jobs, and income—a riverside home for Qinzhou residents.


At dusk, the mouth of the Pinglu Canal glows golden in the sunset. Mangroves stand lush and green, egrets return to their roosts, and along the seawall, locals stream by — some livestreaming, some cycling, some taking a leisurely stroll. What was once a neglected, overgrown riverbank has become a new scenic backdrop in the phones of Qinzhou residents.


Reconstructed by CCCC to meet a 50-year flood protection standard, this urban section of the seawall is not only a safety barrier but also a brand-new "road to happiness." From a barren dirt embankment to a 2.46-kilometer "corridor of well-being," the seawall has given villagers a "river-view home" — with upgraded flood protection, new jobs, and rising incomes. Come see this century-spanning project right at their doorstep!
