The Tung Kiang or Fast River is one of the tributaries which go to make up the network of waterways which converge round the estuary of the Sikiang.
It falls with the eastern arm of the branch known as the Pearl or Canton River just above the second bar between the Lintin Bay, and Whampoa, after draining a considerable portion of the N.E. section of the Kwantung Province, which is almost entirely under cultivation of the sugar cane.
1.
There is only one town of any importance on this stream which is insignificant in comparison to the Sikiang or the North River, this being about 100 miles from its mouth.
The basin of the Tung Kiang is well defined by hills which could be used for the purpose of commanding the surrounding lowland valleys. In this regard the frontier offered by the East River possesses advantages over the existing line of Boundary between Deep Bay and Mirs Bay, where the hills run at right angles to the line of demarcation. The Tung Kiang is not navigable for vessels of heavy draught.
