The North River (Chinese: 北河; pinyin: Běihé), full name Rongjiang North River (榕江北河), also known as Tang River (湯溪; Tāngxī), is located in the southeast of Guangdong Province, the People's Republic of China.
[1] Rongjiang North River originates from Tongziyang of Beidou Town in the Lotus Mountains area of Fengshun County, Meizhou City, and flows northeastward through Youshuxia.
[1] The river is 92 kilometers long, with an average river channel drop of 1.14‰, a drainage area of 1,629 square kilometers, and an average annual runoff of 817 million cubic meters.
[2] Now, due to the efforts of the government and the people living nearby, the water quality is much better, but still not up to standard, especially the severe sewage discharge from tributaries.
People are looking forward to the day when the water in Rongjiang North River can really become clear.
