Learn Chinese in Chinese stories｜Chinese Idiom ｜Li Bing Constructed Dujiangyan

"Tian Fu zhi Guo" means ‘ The land of abundance’, which refers to the Chengdu Plain in Sichuan Province, where giant pandas live. In the early years ,the flood and drought disasters in the Chengdu Plain were frequent, and its prosperity benefited from a hydraulician named Li Bing, who construced Dujiangyan two thousand years ago . Dujiangyan eliminated the floods,irrigated the Chengdu Plain and made it become the land of abundance .

‘天府之国’的意思是富庶之地，它是指四川省成都平原，这里也是大熊猫的故乡。最初的成都平原水旱灾害频繁，它的繁荣得益于一个叫李冰的水利专家，他在两千年前修建的都江堰解除了水灾，灌溉了农田，奠定了‘天府之国’的地理基础。
