中国、江西(こうせい)省の最大の川。長江(ちょうこう)(揚子江(ようすこう))水系に属する。源流は二つあり、東源の貢水(こうすい)は武夷(ぶい)山脈に、西源の章水は南嶺(なんれい)の一つの大庾嶺(だいゆれい)に源を発し、贛州(かんしゅう)で合流する。贛の字は源流の章水と貢水の2字を合成したものである。贛江は合流後、北流し、吉安(きつあん)、樟樹(しょうじゅ)、豊城(ほうじょう)を経て南昌(なんしょう)に至り、十数本の分流に分かれて鄱陽湖(はようこ)に入る。全長758キロメートル。流域面積8万平方キロメートル余で、江西省のなかば以上を占め、贛州より下流は航行可能である。この川に沿って京九線(北京(ペキン)―九竜(きゅうりゅう)〔香港(ホンコン)〕)が通っている。 [河野通博 2019年6月18日] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
