Huan River

The Huan River is a river in northern Henan, China, that flows east through the city of Anyang. The late Shang capital at Yinxu lay on its banks, with the palace and temple area on the south side and the royal cemetery at Xibeigang to the north, and the earlier walled city of Huanbei lies just north of the river.
