Delhi (SASM/GNC/SRC romanization of Mongolian: Delhi hot ), or Delingha (Chinese: ; pinyin: ; Tibetan: , Wylie: gter-len-kha, ZYPY: Derlenka) is a city in and the seat of the Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in northern Qinghai province, Peoples Republic of China. It is located approximately 200 kilometres (120 mi) southeast of the Da Qaidam Administrative Region. It is a mainly industrial county-level city. The Bayin River divides the city into two parts: Hedong (??, lit. "River East") and Hexi (??, lit. "River West"). Because the prefecture seat is located in Hedong, it is slightly more flourishing than Hexi, which is chiefly agricultural.
