Fu River, or Fu Jiang (Chinese: 涪江; pinyin: Fú Jiāng) is a river of in China's Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality. It is a right tributary of the Jialing River, which in its turn is a left tributary of the Yangtze; it is thus part of the East China Sea basin.

The Fu River flows in the general southern and south-eastern direction across the central Sichuan (Mianyang and Suining Prefectures), and then enters the Chongqing Municipality, where it merges with the Jialing River.

The Qu River (Chinese: 渠江) is the largest left-bank tributary of the Jialing River, which is itself a tributary of the Yangtze River. It is also called the Qu He (渠河), and was known in ancient times as "Qianshui" (潜水), also named Yanqu Water. During the Two Jin dynasties, it was called Ba River or Ba Water, and after the Song dynasty, it was officially named Qu River. According to the "Shui Jing" (Water Classic): "The Qianshui originates in Dangqu County of Ba Commandery and flows south into the [Yangtze] River." The "Han Zhi" (Han Records) also notes: "In Dangqu County of Ba Commandery, the Qianshui flows southwest into the river." Because the Qianshui ran through the entire territory of Dangqu County, it was subsequently called Qu River or Qu He.

Yuzhong District (渝中区) is the central district and heart of Chongqing municipality. It is the capital of the municipality and is also the political, economical, and entertainment center of the city of Chongqing. Located in the central portion of Yuzhong is the Jiefangbei CBD, a leading business and financial center of western China.

Surrounded on three sides by water, Yuzhong is effectively a peninsula between the Jialing and Yangtze Rivers. Due to the limited space, its hilly nature, and the fact that it is the main central business district for Chongqing, Yuzhong contains some of the tallest skyscrapers in China and is the most densely populated district in the municipality.
