Yuan River

The Yuan River is one of the four largest rivers in Hunan province in southeast-central China, and is a tributary of Yangtze River.

It is 864 km long and rises in Guizhou province in the Miao Mountains near Tu-yün and is navigable. The upper stream is called the Lung-t'ou River, and downstream it is called the Ch'ing-shui River. It becomes the Yüan River after its confluence with its northern tributary, the Wu River.
