Dazhi River

This is the largest man-made municipal canal excavated in Shanghai during the early years after its liberation. In 1977, to address the issue of three unconnected water systems in Nanhui County and to improve irrigation and drainage in the Pudong area, Shanghai decided to excavate the Dazhi River. Today, it functions as flood control, drainage, navigation, irrigation and water storage and regulation.
