TheJing River (simplified Chinese:泾河;traditional Chinese:涇河) orJing He (Pinyin:Jīng Hé), also calledJing Shui (simplified Chinese:泾水;traditional Chinese:涇水), is a tributary of theWei River (Chinese:渭河), which in turn is the largest tributary of theYellow River.

The Jing River flows for 455.1 kilometres (282.8 mi), with a basin area of 45,421 square kilometres (17,537 sq mi).[1] The river's flow varies greatly throughout the year, andsoil erosion causes serious problems in its basin. Summer floods cause the Jing to be laden with sediment; in the dry season, the river flows with relatively clear water.

The river flows through important farming areas, and its basin is inhabited by 9.5 million people.[1]

Water in the Jing River comes fromMount Liupan inNingxia Hui Autonomous Region and flows throughGansu andShaanxi, where it joins the Wei River inGaoling District ofXi'an.[1] Other than its upper reaches, the river flows through loess landscape throughout its length.[2]

According toChinese mythology aDragon King ruled over the river. The Jing River basin is one of birthplaces of ancient Chinese civilization such as theZhou dynasty.[3][4]
