The Kur River (Russian: Кур) is a river in the Khabarovsk Krai, 434 km long. It merges with the Urmi River, forming the Tunguska River, which is a left tributary of the Amur.
The Kur and Urmi often flood in the summer.
Famous quotes containing the word river:
“It is from quiet places like this all over the world that the forces accumulate which presently will overbear any attempt to accomplish evil on a large scale. Like the rivulets gathering into the river, and the river into the seas, there come from communities like this streams that fertilize the consciences of men, and it is the conscience of the world that we are trying to place upon the throne which others would usurp.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
