Sikou is a town in Jiangxi Province, in southeastern China. Jiangxi lies in the country's interior south, bounded by the Yangtze River to the north and framed by mountain ranges on its eastern and western edges, with the provincial capital at Nanchang. Sikou sits within this province, though it is a small settlement rather than one of Jiangxi's major urban centres.
Like many towns across Jiangxi, Sikou belongs to a region whose economy has traditionally rested on agriculture, particularly rice cultivation in the river valleys and lowlands that characterise much of the province. Jiangxi is also known for its lake systems, most notably Poyang Lake, China's largest freshwater lake, which lies to the north of the province.
Detailed, verifiable information about Sikou specifically is limited, and it is not among the well-documented cities of Jiangxi such as Nanchang, Jiujiang, or Jingdezhen. Travellers seeking reliable particulars about the town's history, landmarks, or transport connections should consult local Chinese-language sources, as English-language references on this settlement are scarce.
