  • Liubao SluiceLiubaozha),addressThe east bank of the embankment of the Baoying section of the Grand CanalIntroductionIt was built in the twelfth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1584), and after many repairs, it was gradually blocked and abandoned during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The site is now in the state of bluestone masonry. The dike, gate wall, dike and the west side of the sway are basically intact. The relationship between the wooden pile foundation, the masonry of the dike and the sluice design and the water level on both sides can be clearly seen. A large number of slabs, large bricks and wooden piles, and stone walls built with slabs and large bricks were found in archaeological excavations. There are a large number of remains of water conservancy projects such as stone dikes and stone gates in the Ming Dynasty. Among them, the sluice gate swings to the northwest, and the main part is made of masonry. The bottom of the entire stone gate is supported by ground nails. The ground nails are in the form of rows of piles, closely arranged, and the wood is still tough. There is a part of brickwork on the top of the stone gate, which plays an integral role in the sluice. Both masonry and brickwork are made by cementing lime and glutinous rice paste. The sluice is designed reasonably, the whole is well preserved, and the sluice slot is clearly visible. As part of the Yangzhou section of the Huaiyang Canal, it was included in the World Cultural Heritage "Grand Canal" in 2014.
