As part of the Yangtze River Delta Plain, Shanghai (including Chongming Island) has low, open terrain about four meters above sea level crisscrossed by a maze of natural waterways of the Taihu drainage basin. The Huangpu River and its tributary, the Wusong (Suzhou Creek), which have their headwaters in Taihu Lake, are the major waterways in Shanghai.
