Take a look here and it will solve your problem.

6,000 years ago, the Pearl River Delta was a shallow funnel-shaped bay lined with rocky islands at the apex of present-day Guangzhou.

The location of the Pearl River roughly starts from Huangpu in Guangzhou City, passes through Shiwan and Nanzhuang in Nanhai County to the west, turns south through Xiqiao Mountain, Jiujiang, Ganzhu and Jun'an in Shunde, and then connects Jiangmen and Xinhui to Shafu at the northeast foot of Gudou Mountain.

The lower limit of the existence of the funnel-shaped bay of the Pearl River continued until the Han and Jin dynasties.

With the continuous siltation of sediment brought by the upper reaches of the Xijiang River and the Beijiang River, some alluvial plains or new sand islands began to appear in the Pearl River, and many plains were connected to each other.

During the period of the Three Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, due to the humid and hot climate and dense vegetation in the Pearl River Basin, while the development along the Pearl River was limited, the river brought less sediment, so the siltation of the bay was slow.

After the Tang Dynasty, the southern mountainous areas were generally developed, the cement and sand of the Pearl River increased, and the coastline gradually extended to the bay.

Since the Song Dynasty, with the emergence of some sand fields in the delta, in order to prevent the intrusion of seawater, the construction of mulberry garden embankment, Funing embankment, salty tide dam and other seawalls, accelerated the development of the border beach.

In the Song Dynasty, the Xijiang estuary has been pushed to the vicinity of Jiujiang and Ganzhu, the north side of the Beijiang estuary has been moved to the vicinity of Huangpu, and the south side extends to the vicinity of Shunde.

In the 22nd year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (1152), Xiangshan County was also set up on the newly silted delta.

In the Ming Dynasty, the entire area north of Shiqi has been silted into land, and the islands of Shanggujing, Huangyang Mountain, Penny's Ridge, and Wugui Mountain in the Xijiang Delta have been connected.

Fuqiu in the South China Sea, the Song Dynasty was still a seaport, and by the Ming Dynasty it had "gone to the sea for four miles".

In the 18th century, the Pearl River Delta had moved to the vicinity of Modaomen.

By the end of the Qing Dynasty, the entire Pearl River Delta was already a flat green field and a starry town.

Hello, I found out for you that the Pearl River passes through Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Guangdong, Hunan, and Jiangxi provinces.

Because the Pearl River runs through the six provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Guangdong, Hunan and Jiangxi. The Pearl River, also known as the Yue River, is the second largest river in China and the third longest river in China according to its flow. The Pearl River originally referred to a 96-kilometer-long waterway from Guangzhou to the mouth of the sea, named after the famous Haizhu Island, and gradually became the general name of the Xijiang, Dongjiang, Beijiang and the rivers on the Pearl River Delta.

The Pearl River originates in the Maxiong Mountains of the Wumeng Mountains of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, flows through six provinces in central and western China and northern Vietnam, and flows downstream into the South China Sea from eight estuaries to the South China Sea.

Expansion, the Pearl River system has a total of 774 large and small rivers, with a total length of more than 36,000 kilometers, abundant river water and numerous tributaries, to the Pearl River shipping industry has brought superior conditions, shipping value is second only to the Yangtze River, ranking second in the country.
