Amur River, River system in Eastern Siberia and Northeastern China
The Amur River stretches 2,824 kilometers through varied landscapes, from mountainous regions to low plains before reaching the Sea of Okhotsk.
The Treaty of Aigun in 1858 established the Amur River as the boundary between the Russian Empire and Qing Dynasty China.
Different ethnic groups named the river according to their languages: Heilong Jiang in Chinese means Black Dragon River, while Kharamuren in Mongolian means Black River.
The river system contains 123 fish species across 23 families, including the kaluga sturgeon, which reaches lengths of over 5.6 meters.
The Amur River remains one of the longest undammed rivers globally, maintaining its natural flow patterns through three distinct geographical sections.
