Liuhe Town, Taicang

Liuhe (simplified Chinese: 浏河; traditional Chinese: 瀏河; pinyin: Liúhé; lit. "Liu Creek") is a town under the jurisdiction of Taicang county-level city in Jiangsu province, China. Liuhe has an area of 68 square kilometers (26 sq mi), with around 56 000 permanent residents.

Liuhe was called Liujiagang (simplified Chinese: 刘家港; traditional Chinese: 劉家港; pinyin: Liújiāgǎng; lit. "Liu Family Harbor") under the Yuan dynasty. It is sometimes also encountered as Liuhegang (simplified Chinese: 刘河港; traditional Chinese: 劉河港; pinyin: Liúhégǎng; lit. "Liuhe Harbor").

Liuhe is located around 35 kilometers (22 mi) to the north of downtown Shanghai. It borders Huating in Shanghai Municipality's Jiading district and Yangqiao in Baoshan district. The border is formed by the eponymous Liu Creek, which flows into the Yangtze estuary. Owing to this placement, Liuhe is sometimes known in Chinese as the "First Town at the End of the River and the Start of the Sea".
