From which city does Dongjiang water exported to Hong Kong and used by Hong Kong people flow to Hong Kong? Where is Dongjiang River?

Dongjiang water exported to Hong Kong and used by Hong Kong people flows from Shenzhen to Hong Kong.

Dongjiang River originates from Yajibo Mountain in Xunwu County, Jiangxi Province, and the source river is Santong River. From northeast to southwest, it flows through Longchuan County, peace county, Dongyuan County, Yuancheng District, Huicheng District, Boluo County to Shilong Town, Dongguan City, enters the Pearl River Delta, and joins Shiziyang southeast of the fish cave William in Huangpu District.

The Shen Dong Water Supply Project of South-to-North Water Transfer Project needs to turn Shima River, one of the tributaries that originally flowed into Dongjiang from south to north, into an artificial canal, and the river water is pumped back to the upstream from the downstream, which is quite arduous. 1963, the project started. After eight stages of pumping, the water level increased by 46 meters, and then it was injected into Yantian Reservoir. Then, a 3-kilometer-long artificial channel was excavated from the reservoir tail, and the water was injected into Shenzhen Reservoir for direct supply to Hong Kong.

Background of Dongjiang Water Supply in Hong Kong

The problem of water shortage has been puzzling Hong Kong, so some Hong Kong people suggested to Tao Zhu, then the director of the Central South Bureau and the first secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, that Guangdong helped Hong Kong solve the water shortage problem in the 1960s. At that time, Liao Chengzhi, Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, reported the matter to Premier Zhou Enlai and quickly decided to introduce Dongjiang water into Hong Kong. On the suggestion of Tao Zhu, the Guangdong provincial government decided to build a reservoir in Shenzhen to deliver water to Hong Kong. 1June, 959, Shenzhen Reservoir Engineering Headquarters was formally established, with Cao Ruoming, then secretary of Baoan County Party Committee, as the chief commander.
