The Qiantang River is one of the most important rivers in the southeast coastal region of China. Since ancient times, the Qiantang River basin has supported generations of people who have made their living from traditional fisheries.
With the increasing urbanization, fishermen's living space is constantly being compressed, and traditional fishing occupations are gradually disappearing. As a result, new forms of production have emerged. Accordingly everyone is coping with the irreversible evolution to some extent in their own way.
