Shexiang Green Corridor Water Conservancy Scenic Area

The Shexiang Green Corridor Water Conservancy Scenic Area is a national water conservancy scenic area.

The Shexiang Green Corridor Water Conservancy Scenic Area is located in the She Ethnic Autonomous County of Lishui City. Developed along a tributary of the Ou River, the scenic area spans 86.93 square kilometers, including 8.25 square kilometers of water surface, and is classified as a natural river-lake type water conservancy scenic area.

Through measures such as the rehabilitation of Hexi Stream, comprehensive management of small watersheds, landscape transformation of weirs, dams, and bridges, as well as the “Three Modifications and One Demolition” campaign along the waterways, the management has integrated water conservancy projects with the development of “China’s She Homeland, a Wellness Destination.” The area has harnessed its rich mountain-water ecology and clean hydropower resources to establish a well-watered, ecologically healthy river-lake network with high-quality water. The water quality in the scenic area meets Class II standards. The site now features the She Ethnic Museum, the Colorful Ribbon Greenway, and the nationally rated 4A-level tourist attraction — “Window of China’s She Homeland.” The distinctive festival “China She Homeland March 3rd” also enjoys considerable influence.
