About Nanjing
Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu Province, is one of China's historically and culturally significant cities, situated in the lower Yangtze River basin. It's a major center of education, research, transportation, and tourism.
Water Situation
Tap water in Nanjing is sourced primarily from the Yangtze River. Over the years, significant improvements have been made in treating the water to improve its mineral content and overall safety for consumption. However, some concerns remain regarding the potential for pollution upstream. The local water quality is monitored by the Jiangsu Provincial Environmental Protection Department, with distribution managed by the Nanjing Waterworks Company.
