Linjiang is a county-level city in Baishan, Jilin province, China. It is located to the east of Tonghua and borders North Korea along the Yalu River, so the river forms the edge of the city on the international frontier. Its name is written 臨江 in traditional characters and Linkiang appears for it on old maps. Because of this position on the Yalu, Linjiang is one of the border settlements of Jilin province.
