A century‑old abandoned mine pit in Jiangsu Province has been transformed into a popular diving park after decades of ecological restoration. As high temperatures sweep across eastern China, this scenic spot draws large crowds of water‑sport lovers. Divers enjoy cool, clear blue water, and local authorities have launched various water activities and tourism packages in the former mining site. The project shows how an industrial wasteland can be renewed into a lively tourist destination.
