Línshuǐ

Linshui lies east of Guang'an among the long parallel ridges and valleys of eastern Sichuan. The county was established in 537, with its early seat at the old town of Linzhou. Mountains and tributaries divide the district into narrow strips, while the waters of the Yulin River flow south towards the Yangtze. Through the Song period Linshui was one of the counties governed from Quzhou.
