EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1903, showcases the southern terminal of the Imperial Canal, also known as the Grand Canal (Da Yun-he), at Hangzhou, China. The Imperial Canal, an engineering marvel of ancient China, is the longest canal in the world, stretching over 1,100 miles from Beijing to Hangzhou. Constructed during the Sui (581-618 AD) and Tang (618-907 AD) dynasties, the canal played a significant role in the economic, cultural, and political development of China. It facilitated the transportation of goods, including grain, silk, and other commodities, between the northern and southern regions of the country, contributing to the growth of trade and commerce. In this image, we see the terminal building at Hangzhou, which served as the southern end of the canal. The grand architecture of the terminal, with its ornate roofs and intricate details, reflects the importance of the canal as a vital transportation artery in China's history. The tranquil waters of the canal, surrounded by lush greenery and picturesque scenery, add to the serene beauty of the scene. The Imperial Canal's historical significance is evident in its continued presence and popularity as a tourist attraction today. Visitors can still travel along parts of the canal on traditional boats, experiencing a piece of China's rich history firsthand. This photograph serves as a reminder of the canal's enduring importance in China's past and its continued role as a cultural and historical treasure.
