The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is the earliest and longest man-made canal in the world. Its total distance is more than 1700 kilometers, starting from Beijing and ending in Hangzhou. The Grand Canal plays a great role in the exchange of economy and culture between southern and northern China, especially in the industrial and agricultural development in the canal line area.


In Ningbo, China's Grand Canal meets the Maritime Silk Road. Countless sea vessels have set sail to distant shores. At the same time, numerous grain barges have paddled northward, facilitating the exchange between ocean-going ships and inland river craft, as well as the interconnection between the open sea and inland waterways, thereby propelling the growth of this city.


Ningbo-Zhoushan Port has retained its top cargo throughput for 15 consecutive years, while its container throughput remains firmly in third place globally.
