Suzhou, (Chinese: 宿州; pinyin: Sùzhōu) formerly romanized as Suchow,[3] is a prefecture-level city in northern Anhui, China. The city straddles the Tuohe [zh] and Xinbian [zh] rivers, which fork at its western end. The Tuohe was formerly a left tributary of the Huai River, while the latter is a modern artificial canal, but now both drain into Hongze Lake. It borders the prefectural cities of Huaibei and Bengbu to the southwest and south respectively, and the provinces of Jiangsu to the east, Shandong to the north, and Henan to the northwest.
