Example Sentences
- "Yibin, known as the First Port on the Yangzi, is a small city at the point where the Min Jiang and Jinsha Jiang join to form the Yangzi River."
- "Above Yibin, the river is the River of Golden Sands, the Jinsha Jiang, a tumultuous thousand-mile-long tributary whose wild waters reflect the bandit-ridden heritage of its remote tribes. When it reaches into Qinghai Province and the Tibetan Plateau, the Jinsha Jiang becomes known as the Tongtian Ho — the River to Heaven, whose crystalline waters nourish the nomads at the farthest reach of the Celestial Kingdom."
- "The Reds had no interest in Kunming. The way was open to the Jinsha Jiang, the river of Golden Sands.[…] The first of these targets was the riverside hamlet of Jiaopingdu, as important to me on my route of badges as it had been to the Communists who wanted to cross the Jinsha Jiang there and to the Nationalists who wanted to prevent them."
