Baiheliang, Protected cultural heritage site in Fuling, China

The White Crane Ridge extends along the Yangtze River, featuring 163 stone inscriptions and carvings that document water levels through Chinese history.

The stone inscriptions at White Crane Ridge began during the Tang Dynasty in 763 AD and continued for over 1200 years until the ridge submerged.

The site contains 114 hydrological notes carved in Chinese and Mongolian, demonstrating the ancient understanding of water management and navigation systems.

Visitors access the submerged ridge through an underwater tunnel that leads to a museum displaying the historical carvings and a 2.8-meter trout sculpture.

The stone carvings at White Crane Ridge represent the longest continuous hydrological record in the world, now preserved beneath 30 meters of water.
