Luhe District (simplified Chinese: 六合; traditional Chinese: 六合; pinyin: Lùhé Qū[1][2]) (sometimes read as Liùhé[3] ) 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]
