Yuyao in Zhejiang province has largely recovered from its worst storm in a century that brought chaos to the industrial city last week.
The lives of hundreds of thousands of residents are back on track, with factories beginning to reopen on Monday.
The unprecedented flash flooding paralyzed public transport and telecom services and cut power and water supplies for days. The city's flood control headquarters said the level of the Yaojiang River dropped to 3.99 meters by 3 pm on Monday from its record 5.33 meters in recent days.
