Mulanbei

As a historical and cultural relic under state protection, Mulanbei is located at the foot of Mountain Mulan, the lower reaches of Mulan River (4 kilometers from Nanmen, Putian). It is an ancient barrage crossing Mulan River, as well as one of the best preserved ancient large hydraulic projects found in China.

Mulanbei is an ancient large hydraulic project integrating such functions as water diversion, water conservation, irrigation, drainage and flood tide control. This project is classified into the key water-control project, canal system project and the coastal embankment project. The key water-control project consists of overflow weir, water intake sluice for the south weir & north weir, flushing sluice and diversion dike. Those three parts are organically constructed into an integrative whole, so as to give full play to their respective functions.
