Hrazdan (river)

The Hrazdan (Hrazdan) is a major river and the second largest in Armenia. It originates at the northwest extremity of Lake Sevan and flows south through the Kotayk Province and Armenia's capital, Yerevan; the lake in turn is fed by several streams. In the Ararat plain it joins the Aras river along the border with Turkey. It joins as a left tributary the Kura river, which then flows into the Caspian Sea. A series of hydro-electric projects have been constructed on the Hrazdan. Its waters are in demand to irrigate crops.

Flows through: Armenia.
