The Babao River Channels were the biggest hydraulic engineering in Taiwan during Qing Dynasty. The offspring of Lang Shi, Shi-bang Shi, was the person responsible for its construction. The water in Zhuo-shui River was drawn into the Plain of Changhua to irrigate the farmland. Since the river channels ran through eight of the thirteen forts, the channels are named after Ba-bao River Channels. Tianjhong is close to the head of the river channel. The fertile soil and the clean water throughout the year gave birth to the nationally known "Zhuo-shuei Rice."

Along the banks of Babao River Channels plant many trees and it becomes a good place for a leisurely stroll to the local population, especially the sections between Zhung-tan and Long-tan are most recommended. It looks like a green corridor, according to the timing of the seasons to present different natural beauty, but also contains cultural atmosphere along the architectural features that attracted many photography fans to seek for good views. This is a good itinerary suitable for the whole family to roam leisurely.

Located on the north shore of the Zhung-tan Community, "Tianjhong Sacred Heart of Jesus" was designed by Taiwan's first female architect, who is also the designer for Yangmingshan Zhongshan building, Ms. Her concept of design is to integrate the elements of northern China Palace and simple modern Western architectural styles, which is similar to Zhungsan Building. Therefore, it is also named after "Little Zhongshan Building."

The "Association of Sacred Heart of Jesus Sisters" next to the Catholic church was founded by a nun, Sister Po Kao-li, from Hungary in the year of 1953, and is the only Catholic religious group founded in Taiwan.

The Long-tan Community at the south bank of the corridor retains many traditional buildings in the style of Southern Min. And the Liang-ji Village next to the Babao River Channel and Da-she Road preserves a residence of Yun-zhang Xiao in Long-tan which is designed by a famous architect in 1927 with a mixture of Japanese, southern Min and western elements.
