Siyang is located in the north of Jiangsu Province, east of Suqian City, on the lower reaches of the Huaihe River and the western shore of Lake Hongze, making it an important ecological and livable county in the northern flank of the Yangtze River Delta. This thousand-year-old county has a long history, and was once a part of Sishui County during the Western Han Dynasty. The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal passes through the county, giving rise to a profound canal culture. As China's "poplar tree hometown", Siyang has the largest forest community in the plains of the country, with more than 35% forest coverage, known as the "natural oxygen bar". Relying on its ecological advantages, Siyang has taken green agriculture, textile and garment, and machinery manufacturing as its pillar industries, and at the same time has developed eco-tourism, with attractions such as the A-Ma Cultural Park and Chengzi Lake Tourism Resort attracting tourists from all over the world. This city, which combines historical heritage and modern vitality, is writing a new chapter of green development along the canal with the strategy of "ecological county".
