Mick Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 I was wondering how Shamian Island made out during the floods in Guangzhou. Any idea? Link to comment
Randy W Posted May 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 My guess is that the Pearl River would offer pretty good drainage capacity. The island is, what, about 10 feet above the river level? Link to comment
