Shangping River
Shangping River(Chinese:上坪溪), located in northern Taiwan,[1] is the upper reaches of Touqian River.[2] It has a length of 44 kilometers[3] and a drainage area of 253 square kilometers,[4] spanning the eastern part of Zhudong Township,[5] the western part of Hengshan Township,[6] and the entire Wufeng Township[7] in Hsinchu County.[8] The upstream of Shangping River's main stream is Xakaro River,[9] which originates from the northwestern side of Mount Kuai[10] at an altitude of 2,512 meters in the Xueshan Range.[11] It flows northwest to Shilu and then turns westward, and at Minsheng, it turns northward, passing through Tuchang and Qingquan. After converging with Maibala River[12] at Taoshan, it is called Shangping River. The river continues to flow northward through Wufeng and Shangping, and after converging with Youluo River[13] near Xiagongguan, it is renamed Touqian River.[14]
