- The river is also popularly known as the "mother river" in Northeast China.
- Coursing 1,345 kilometres long, the Liao River system drains a catchment basin of over 232,000 square kilometres, but its mean discharge is quite small at only about 500 cubic metres per second, about one-twentieth that of the Pearl River.
