Tàihé
Tàihé lies on the northern Ānhuī plain beside the Shā River, a tributary of the Yǐng. In 1119, under the Northern Sòng, the county took the name Tàihé and moved its seat to the river’s northern bank. During the Míng it belonged to Yǐngzhōu, linking it to the towns and waterways of the Huái basin.
