Jianhu County (Chinese: 建湖县 Pinyin: Jiànhú Xiàn), located in 33º27'49"N 119º47'40"E, is one of the nine counties of Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, People's Republic of China. The county consist mainly of Han people.
In Chinese, the word Jianhu literally means "build lake". However, this is a misnomer, as there are no lakes being constructed, nor was there ever one, in Jianhu.
The main town in Jianhu is commonly just called Jianhu, and sometimes Huduo.
