The Han River () in China was often referred to as Hanshui (漢水) in antiquity. It is a left tributary of the Yangtze River (Chang Jiang) with a length of 1532 km.
The Han River rises in southwestern Shaanxi and then crosses into Hubei. It merges with the Yangtze in Wuhan, a city of several million. The merging rivers divide the city of Wuhan into three areas, that of Wuchang, Hankou, and Hanyang.
