Hekou, A Border City

Hekou, A Border City

Hekou County of Honghe (Red River) Prefecture is situated in the southeast of 
 Yunnan and borders on Vietnam's Lao Cai Province. Hekou derives its name from 
its location at the converging point of the Red River and Nanxi River.    
Functioning as one of the important passages linking China and Southeast Asia, 
 Hekou is now a state Class-I port as well as a gateway for Yunnan's opening 
up to foreign countries. (Pictures from honghe.travel)
