Jiangsu has recently issued an action plan to build world-class leisure and tourism destinations along the Yangtze River.

According to the plan, Jiangsu will make full use of the river and Grand Canal to advance cultural and tourism endeavors. The key projects will include a route to embrace the cultural heritage of the ancient waterway system, a route featuring the coastal environment and initiatives that highlight Nanjing's history, such as the Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Yangzhou's culture importance, and classic gardens of Suzhou.
