The Yingtao River or Cherry River (Chinese: 樱桃河),[3] originally named Xingdu Lake, named after the two surnames Xing and Dou who lived along the lake in Song and Yuan Dynasties, [4] is a river in Shanghai City of China.[5] It is located in the south of Wujing Town, Minhang District, Shanghai. [6] It is part of a tributary on the north bank of the Huangpu River.[7]

Cherry River starts from Yutang (俞塘) in the north and reaches the Huangpu River in the south, flows through the Minhang Campus of East China Normal University (华东师范大学闵行校区),[8] and crosses Tangsiting (塘泗汀), Jiangjia Bay (蒋家湾), New Jiangjia Bay (新蒋家湾), Ledao River (乐道河) and Jinying River (金英河). [9]

Cherry River is 5.36 kilometers long, with a surface width of 14 meters, a bottom width of 1 meter, and a water depth of more than 1 meter. Since the river flows slowly through the Minhang Campus of ECNU,[10] it's called the mother river of the Minhang Campus of East China Normal University. [11]
