In ancient times, the Ningshan area was a land of rivers and lakes.
It was filled with rivers and lakes.
Later, a vast network of canals and waterways was dug to meet the needs of agricultural irrigation, water transport, and flood control.
Some were very shallow, only about a meter deep, with limited width.
But those meant for boat traffic were deeper, possibly reaching depths of 3 meters or even more.
The waterway before them, called the Xuntang, was one of the latter.
It was once one of the transport canals running from Pingzhou to Ningshan, navigable by larger cargo boats.
The river was 53 meters wide; it was written right on the concrete bridge next to them.
As for the depth, it had to be over 3 meters.
And since it was an artificially excavated canal, the depth near the banks wasn't much different from the center.
A Wuling Sunshine minivan is 1.8 meters tall, so it could be completely submerged at the bottom.
