The Grand Canal, a vast waterway connecting the northern and southern parts of China, witnessed all of its dried-out sections refilled this year as a water-supply project kicked off on April 14. The water primarily came from other water bodies including some sections of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, recycled water and accumulated rainwater. With a history of more than 2,500 years, the Grand Canal connects Beijing and Hangzhou in East China's Zhejiang province, which served as a significant transportation artery in ancient China.
