Taicang is located in the alluvial plain of the Yangtze River Delta,
featuring flat terrain, slightly inclining from northeast to southwest.
The eastern part is a plain along the river and the western part is
low-lying. Influenced by the humid climate of the south of the northern
subtropical region, Taicang has four distinctive seasons and a
moderate climate.
As the nearest port to the estuary of the Yangtze River, Taicang Port
has a shoreline of 38.8 kilometers, including a deep-water section of
25 kilometers. The port line is roughly straight and the shoal is stable.
It is ice-free and does not silt up throughout the whole year. The
deep-water area is spacious and stable, with the fairway depth of
12.5 meters to accommodate ships up to 200,000 tons. It is a
“golden port” at the lower reach of the Yangtze River.
