Henan Province 河南省 is a province of the People's Republic of China. It is located in the North China Plain. The name "Henan" means "south of the river" - the river in this case refers to the Huang He.

Out of the 22 provinces of China, Henan is the 17th largest province but in terms of population, it ranks a high second behind Guangdong Province. Henan Province has a population of 95 million people (2011 estimate), more than many countries. In fact, if it were an independent country, it would be the 12th most populous in the world.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
