It has built an international marathon track with Gaoyou cultural characteristics (Gaoyou Grand Canal Half Marathon) and a环湖 bicycle track (International Cycling Race around Gaoyou Lake). According to the requirements of provincial-level water conservancy scenic areas, the Canal Xidi scenic belt will be further comprehensively built to adorn the brilliant pearl of the canal.
