There are some rivers in the world that not only enchant you with their beauty but take your mind and soul and never let you go. The following three are exactly of this kind.

Blue NileRiver, Khartoum

No, no. It’s not the second Nile, it is just the 1,600 km long chief headstream of the Nile. The river goes through Ethiopia and Sudan and at Khartoum the Blue Nile merges with the White Nile and they create the famous Nile proper. The flow of the Blue Nile reaches it maximum level in the rainy season. The Blue Nile is strong and beautiful and it offers numerous places for amazing shots.

Indus River, Northern Pakistan

The Indus River is the longest river in Pakistan. What is more, it is the life-line of the country. The average length of the river is 3,180 kilometres. The river is extremely important since it is crucial for the ecosystem of temperate forests and arid countryside. The Indus river belongs to a couple of rivers around the world that exhibit a tidal bore. Main source of water is glaciers.

Yangtze River, China

The Yangtze River is 6,300 kilometres long and it stretches nine provinces. This river is the third large after the Amazon and Nile. Very often in China it is called the River of Golden Sand. For many years the river has been a main transportation highway. Every year the Yangtze deposits a lot of silt that makes possible rice growing. These plains are very fertile that is why to grow something here is a real pleasure. Apart from its important transit, economic and agricultural functions, the river offers spectacular views.
