Lena River

Lena River is one of the biggest river systems in Asia and the globe. Its whole basin area accounts for approximately 20% of Russia's total area. The riverbed is immense in breadth, stretching for roughly 15 kilometers in the center and up to 20-25 kilometers at the bottom. Aldan, Viluy, Olyokma, and Vitim are the primary tributaries of Lena. As a result, the final length is comparable to that of a major European river like the Dnieper or the Danube.

Among other things, the Lena River is one of the world's purest water sources. There are no dams or power plants on the river. In many spots along the canal, as two thousand years before, you could drink water by scooping up water from the river with your palm. That is why people call Lena one of the world's largest and most important freshwater sources.
