When water engineering meets water culture,
What sparks will appear?
Some combine engineering with exhibition,
Give full play to the engineering benefits and water education functions;
Some are in the process of being built
excavation and integration into local cultures,
Form a unique water engineering style.
Some are fully excavated and passed on
The story of the sages governing water and the spirit of water control,
Inspire generations to continue to struggle
……
A thousand water projects,
There are a thousand ways to open up water culture

In order to highlight the cultural connotation of water engineering, tell the cultural story of water engineering, and fully display the humanistic care and cultural charm of water management and rejuvenation in our province, in 2021, the Provincial Water Conservancy Department launched the first collection of cases of organic integration of water engineering and water culture.
