Where is the origin of the name of the Huangpu River, and where is the source of the Huangpu River?

Legend has it that a long time ago, Shanghai was a desolate swamp with a shallow river flowing through it. When there is a lot of rain, it floods; There was less rain, and the bottom of the river was facing the sky. People suffered greatly from it, and cursed it as the "River of Broken Heads".

During the Warring States Period, Chu ordered Yin Huangxie to come to the bank of the "Guillotine River", worked tirelessly to find out its ins and outs, and led the people to dredge and govern, so that it could go north directly into the mouth of the Yangtze River and into the East China Sea.

People are grateful for Huang Xie's kindness, so they call this river Huang Xie River, or Huangpu for short. Later, Huang Xie was named Chunshenjun, and he was also known as Chunshenjiang.

The source of the Huangpu River is located in Longwang Mountain, Anji County, Zhejiang Province, and the nature reserve is a national forest park.

The Huangpu River is Shanghai's landmark river, flowing through downtown Shanghai and dividing the city into Puxi and Pudong. The Huangpu River is an important waterway in Shanghai, and is the last tributary of the Yangtze River before it joins the East China Sea after being accepted by the Wusong River (Suzhou Creek) at the Baidu Bridge outside the center of Shanghai.

The two sides of Huangpu are the best of Shanghai's cityscape. A number of car tunnels and bridges have been built on the Huangpu River. The Huangpu River is a multi-functional river with the value of drinking water source, navigation, flood drainage, fishery and tourism.

The Huangpu River mainly originates from Dianshan Lake in Dianfeng, Zhujiajiao Town, Qingpu District, Shanghai, and flows through Qingpu, Songjiang, Fengxian, Minhang, Xuhui, Huangpu, Hongkou, Yangpu, Pudong New Area, Baoshan and other districts before flowing into the Yangtze River at Wusongkou

The Huangpu River is about 113 kilometers long, 300-700 meters wide, and is not frozen all year round (except for the Qing Dynasty, there have been freezing records), and it is an important waterway in Shanghai, China. It flows into the Yangtze River at Wusongkou and is the last tributary of the Yangtze River before it enters the sea. It flows through downtown Shanghai, dividing the city into Puxi and Pudong.

Characteristics of the Huangpu River

The main stream of the Huangpu River is kilometers long. The upper section of the main stream is east-west for a long kilometer from Mishi to Zhagang, the river body is relatively straight, and the river surface is about 300 meters wide. When the water level is in meters, the cross-section is 3540 4100 square meters, and the elevation of the river bottom is meters, which is the deepest near the port of Maozhu in Songjiang.

The main stream to Zhagang (the west mouth of the Dazhi River) turns to the north-south direction, 54 kilometers long, of which 40 kilometers below Longhua, the river channel bends more, runs through the downtown area of Shanghai and flows into the Yangtze River at Wusongkou. When the water level of this section is meters, the width of the river surface is widened from 320 meters to 770 meters, the cross-section is 4700 6700 square meters, the elevation of the river bottom is meters, and the estuary section is shallow.

It's inexplicable. The source of the Huangpu River is in the lower reaches of the Taipu River and the upper reaches of the Huangpu River. Those experts are failing the language, looking for the source of the Huangpu River and not the source of Taihu Lake, this river is called the Huangpu River from the beginning of the natural source of the Huangpu River.

Longwang Mountain in Anji, Zhejiang, I just went to the summer vacation the year before last, and it marks the source of the Huangpu River.

There is a legend about the excavation of the Huangpu River. Once upon a time, Shanghai was a desolate land with a shallow river meandering. When there is a lot of rain, it floods; There was less rain, and the bottom of the river was facing the sky. People suffered greatly from it, and cursed it as the "River of Broken Heads".

During the Warring States Period, Chu ordered Huang Xie to come to the bank of the "Guillotine River", worked tirelessly to figure out its ins and outs, and led the people to dredge and control it, so that it could directly enter the mouth of the Yangtze River to the north and plunge into the East China Sea. Since then, both sides of the river have not been afraid of drought and flood, and they have lived and worked in peace and contentment.

People were grateful for Huang Xie's kindness, so they called this great river.

Huang Xiejiang, referred to as Huangpu. Later, Huang Xie was named Chunshenjun, and he was also known as Chunshenjiang.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, it was once called Huangpu Tang, Huangpu Port, Huangpu and Da Huangpu, and it was called Huangpu River in the Qing Dynasty, also known as Huanglong.
