    Construction of Pinglu Canal In Qinzhou - China

    (251218) -- QINZHOU, Dec. 18, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This combo photo shows the aerial view of the construction site of the Qingnian hub waterway, on Oct. 9, 2024 (above), and the aerial view of the construction site of this waterway, on Dec. 17, 2025 (below), on the Pinglu Canal in Qinzhou, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Three years on, the construction of the Pinglu Canal as a core component of the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor has shown remarkable progress. Upon completion, the 134.2-km canal would wind its way across Nanning and Qinzhou of Guangxi until it reaches the Beibu Gulf. It is expected to serve as an artery for river-sea inter-modal transportation in the southwestern part of the country. Photo by Zhang Ailin/XInhua/ABACAPRESS.COM
