Built in 256 BC, this grand irrigation project has played a crucial role in flood prevention and irrigation for over 2,000 years and it is known as one of the great hydraulic engineering projects of ancient China. Originally constructed around 256 BC by the State of Qin as an irrigation and flood control project, the system harnessed Minjiang River using a new method of channeling and dividing the river rather than simply damming it. The water management scheme is still in use today to irrigate over 5,300 square kilometres of land in the region. After the system was finished, no more floods occurred in Chengdu plain of Sichuan province. The irrigation made Sichuan province the most productive agricultural region in China.
