On July 8, the ecological corridor along the Bailin River welcomed visitors with a pleasant view of lush greenery, colorful flower beds, and crystal-clear waters. Thanks to ongoing environmental efforts, what was once an ordinary river has now become a “green lung” for the urban area of Yichang. Today, along the riverbank, visitors can enjoy lush greenery and sparkling waters, along with new amenities like viewing platforms and seating areas. (Reporter/Lin Xiao)
