The Seine is a 777-kilometre-long (483 mi) river in northern France.  Its drainage basin is in the Paris Basin covering most of northern France. It rises at Source-Seine, 30 kilometres  northwest of Dijon in northeastern France in the Langres plateau, flowing through Paris and into the English Channel at Le Havre (and Honfleur on the left bank).  It is navigable by ocean-going vessels as far as Rouen,120 kilometres from the sea. Over 60 percent of its length, as far as Burgundy, is negotiable by large barges and most tour boats, and nearly its whole length is available for recreational boating; excursion boats offer sightseeing tours of the river banks in the capital city, Paris.

There are 37 bridges in Paris across the Seine (the most famous of which are the Pont Alexandre III and the Pont Neuf) and dozens more outside the city. A notable bridge, which is also the last along the course of the river, is the Pont de Normandie, the ninth longest cable-stayed bridge in the world, which links Le Havre and Honfleur.

秦淮河是长江下游右岸的一条支流，位于江苏省西南部，全长110公里，流域面积2630平方公里。秦淮河大部分在南京市境内，是南京最大的地区性河流，被视为南京的“母亲河”，其中流经南京城内的一段被称为“十里秦淮”。

内秦淮河全长9.6华里（4.8千米），称为“十里秦淮”，六朝时为都城内繁华的居民区和商业区，隋灭陈后凋敝衰落。明清时复兴，内秦淮两岸人烟稠密，金粉楼台，十分繁华。明清时代此地设有江南贡院，还有明太祖朱元璋设立的官营艺妓院“富乐院”，也称“旧院”，与江南贡院隔河相望。

现在的“十里秦淮”风光带是以夫子庙为中心、庙市街景合一的夫子庙秦淮风光带景区。
