Ying River

The Sha Ying River at Zhoukou

The Ying River (simplified Chinese: é¢–æ²³; traditional Chinese: æ½æ²³; pinyin: YÄng HÃ©) is the largest tributary of the Huai River with its origin in Henan Province, Peopleâ€™s Republic of China. From Zhoukou City in Henan the river flows through Fuyang City in Anhui Province then empties into the Huai River at Zhengyang.^[1]

The Ying Riverâ€™s major tributary is the Sha River (æ²™æ²³) so it is often referred to by this name or as the Shaying River (æ²™é¢æ²³).^[1]

Seriously polluted along its entire length, in 2007 the Ying Riverâ€™s water quality was rated as below Grade 5 by the Chinese Environmental Protection Agency.^[2]
