Qínjiāng

The Qin River rises in the hills of eastern Guangdong and flows northeast towards the Mei River. Its valley contains a narrow strip of level land between the mountains. In the Ming period, a district known as Qinjiang belonged to Chang Le; in 1569 part of it was included in the newly established Yong'an County. The river ultimately joins a system that carries water onward to the Han River and the coast.
