Best Answer

The Huang He River or Yellow River in China is the second largest river in China, next to the Yangtze River.

It is 3,395 miles long. The Chinese consider the river to be their "mother" river, the center where Chinese civilization was born. The river originates in the Kunlun Mountains, which are located in Qinghai Province. From there it travels to the Bohai Sea, crossing nine provinces. The Yellow River Basin was the site of the birth of Chinese civilization in the Neolithic Age, which is said to go back as far as 7,000 B.C. Signs of the Bronze and Iron ages have also been found there.
