Above is a picture of Suzhou in Jiangsu province showing houses along the Grand Canal.\nFrom north to south, the Grand Canal is over 1,700 kilometers (roughly 1,100 miles) long,\nlinking Hangzhou in Zhejiang province with Beijing in the north. An extremely important\nwater project that was first started in the Sui dynasty (589-618), it connects several big rivers\nand provides an important means of transportation and communication.\nWith the two pictures below in mind, how do you think the access to rivers and lakes would\nhave made the lifestyle of people in the south different from that of people in the north?\n
