绿染汉江之滨

Ankang:A Green City beside the Han River

坐落于汉江之滨的陕西安康,素有"秦首楚尾"之称,历史上森林茂密。然而,从明初至民国初期的毁林开荒,使这里的森林资源受到严重破坏。实施退耕还林后,林木一律禁伐,涵养水源,确保了汉江水质清洁干净和南水北调中线工程的生态安全,使以汉滨区为代表的秦巴山区及汉江流域的生态状况,发生了历史性的变化。安康人用自己的双手,为世代守望的土地披上了绿衣,绿水青山的生态福利,实现了农民脱贫致富。

Ankang,a waterfront city of the Han River,historically connected the southern tip of the Qin Kingdom and the northern border of Chu Kingdom.Before the Ming Dynasty,it used to have dense forests.However,reclamation spanning from the early Ming Dynasty to the Republican period has taken a heavy toll on its forests.Fortunately,China initiated the restoration project,prohibiting logging and conserving water in the Han River Region.Such measures have ensured the water quality of the Han River and the ecological security of the middle route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project.As a result,the woeful eco-environment in the Qinba mountainous region and Han River Region like Hanbing District was reversed.On this land of hundreds of years’ history,the local people have walked out of poverty by reaping the fruits of a sound ecosystem and green mountains.
