Yúgàn

Yugan lies on the lower Xin River, near the southeastern shore of Poyang Lake. Its waterways form part of the broad lake basin of northeastern Jiangxi. The county has a long history, having been known as Yuhan in the Han period and later as Yugan. In 1512, during the Ming dynasty, part of its territory was joined to lands from Leping and Poyang to form Wannian County.
