Minjiang river

The Minjiang River (闽江; pinyin: Mǐnjiāng) is a 577km-long river in Fujian province, China. It is the largest river in Fujian, and an important water transport channel.

The name should not to be confused with the Minjiang River (Sichuan), which is written 岷江.

Located on the lower reaches of the Minjiang River in eastern Fujian, the city of Fuzhou is the capital and the political, economic, and cultural center of Fujian Province. It is also called "Banyan City" because banyan trees began to be planted in the city 900 years ago.
