The
Qian River (
Chinese: 黔江,
pinyin:
Qián Jiāng) is the name of a short section of the
Xi River system and, thus, the greater
Pearl River system in
Guangxi,
China. It is formed by where the
Liu Jiang meets the larger
Hongshui He east of
Laibin, then flows southeast through
Wuxuan. At
Guiping it is joined by the more southerly
Yu Jiang to form the
Xun branch of the Xi Jiang. The Qian, for most of its length, winds between the Dayao and Lianhua Mountains, before entering the valley just below Xishan Mountain west of Guiping.
