About Chengdu Jinjiang

Fuhe River (called Pijiang River in ancient times) and Nanhe River (called Jianjiang River and Jinjiang River in ancient times) are two man-made rivers that surround Chengdu.

The Nanhe River is a tributary branched from the main stream of the Minjiang River when Li Bing built the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. It flows around the west and south of Chengdu and eastward. After the Han Dynasty, it was mistakenly thought to be the main flow of the Minjiang River due to the huge amount of water. "Marco Polo's Travels" describes that its water surface is wide and "actually like a sea."

Fuhe River is a tributary that branches off from Jianjiang River in Chongyi Town, Dujiangyan City. It was originally named Pijiang River. It goes around the north gate of Chengdu, and then goes eastward to join the Nanhe River. In the Tang Dynasty, the Pi River passed under Fucheng and became a moat, so it was called Fucheng.

A total of 25 kilometers of sewage pipelines have been buried on both sides of the Funan River to uniformly guide urban sewage to the sewage plant for treatment and discharge into the lower reaches of the river, purifying 850 hectares of urban water surface; 25 kilometers of new river embankments have been added, and 18 new ones have been built or renovated.

The inner ring road along the river is 25 meters long and 14.79 kilometers long, the outer road is 20 to 40 meters wide and 8.6 kilometers long, and the river protection road is 16 meters wide and 10.76 kilometers long.

Green landscape, more than 400 acres of green belts, small parks, small entertainment groups, as well as buildings and sculptures with Chengdu’s 2,000-year history and cultural characteristics have been built on the riverbank.
