What is the source of Qinhuai River?

Qinhuai River, formerly known as Huaishui, is called Longcangpu, with a total length of about 1 10 km and a drainage area of more than 2,600 square kilometers. It is the main river in Nanjing and is very famous in history. According to legend, when Qin Shihuang visited the east, he looked at the purple gas rising above Jinling, thinking it was imperial gas, so he cut the square mountain, broke the long ridge and blasphemed it and entered the river. Later generations mistakenly thought that this water was opened in Qin Dynasty, so it was called "Qinhuai". Qinhuai River

Qinhuai River is the cradle of ancient civilization in Nanjing. As far back as the Stone Age, there were human activities in the basin. From Dongshuiguan to Xishuiguan, the river bank has been a residential area in a prosperous business district since Soochow. During the Six Dynasties, it became a place where famous families lived together, where merchants and scholars gathered together and Confucianism flourished. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it gradually declined, but it attracted countless literati and poets to pay their respects here, lamenting that "Wang Xietang died in the past and flew into the homes of ordinary people". In the Song Dynasty, it gradually recovered as the cultural center of Jiangnan. The Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially the Ming Dynasty, were the heyday of Shili Qinhuai. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the story of Yan Yan in Qinhuai became more popular. Gold powder towers, row upon row; In Ling Bo, the sound of paddles and the shadow of lights constitute a fantastic spectacle. However, in modern times, due to war and other reasons, river pollution has become increasingly serious, and most of the buildings on both sides of the strait have been destroyed, and the bustling scene of the past no longer exists. After 1985, Jiangsu Province and Nanjing allocated huge sums of money to repair this scenic belt, and Qinhuai River once again became a famous tourist attraction in China.
