Dujiangyan is located in the west of Dujiangyan City, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, on the Minjiang River in the west of Chengdu Plain. It was founded in the last years of Qin Zhao Haoqi (about 256 BC-25 BC1)? It is a large-scale water conservancy project organized and built by Li Bing and his son, the magistrate of Shu County, on the basis of excavating the turtle essence of predecessors. It consists of fish mouth, flying sand weir and bottle mouth. For more than 2,000 years, it has been playing the role of flood control and irrigation, making Chengdu Plain a "land of abundance" with floods and droughts thousands of miles away. Up to now, the irrigated area has reached more than 30 counties and cities, covering an area of nearly 10 million mu, which is the oldest and only preserved in the world.
