Karez System Pictures
People ingeniously created the karez to draw the underground water to irrigate the farmland.
The Karez systems in Xinjiang, along with the Great Wall and the Grand Canal, are considered as the three great projects of ancient China. Generally, the Karez systems are made up of vertical wells, underground canals, above-ground canals and small reservoirs. The water source is the melting snow from the Tianshan Mountain.
