Luhe District (simplified Chinese: 六合区; traditional Chinese: 六合區; pinyin: Lùhé Qū^[1]^[2]) (sometimes read as Liùhé^[3] Qū) is one of 11 districts of Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu province, China.

As with most non-locals, famed broadcaster Zhu Xun once pronounced the name of Luhe District as Liuhe instead of Luhe.^[3]

Administrative divisions[]

In the present, Luhe (Liuhe) District has 10 subdistricts and 10 towns.^[4]
