The Bogda Mountains in the northern Turpan Basin and the Kalawu Mountain in the west have spring and summer seasons. A lot of snow and rain flow down the valley and sneak into the Gobi Desert. People use the slope of the mountain to subtly create the Kaner Well and dig the underground subsurface flow to irrigate the farmland. Kaner Well does not cause a large amount of water to evaporate due to hot and squally winds, so the flow is stable and self-flow irrigation is guaranteed.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7The_longest_artificial_canal_in_the_world_%E2%80%93_the_Grand_Canal\"><\/span><strong>7.The longest artificial canal in the world &#8211; the Grand Canal<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Super-Projects-In-Ancient-China-the-Grand-Canal.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2589\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Super-Projects-In-Ancient-China-the-Grand-Canal.jpg\" alt=\"Super Projects In Ancient China-the Grand Canal\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Super-Projects-In-Ancient-China-the-Grand-Canal.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Super-Projects-In-Ancient-China-the-Grand-Canal-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is the oldest canal in the world with the longest history and the largest engineering.
