Everything about The Nanay River totally explained
The
Nanay River is
tributary river to the
Amazon River, west of the
Napo in
Peru. The Nanay is one of the three rivers that surround the jungle city of
Iquitos, making it an island. Other nearby settlements on the river include the villages of Santo Tomás, Padre Cocha, and Santa Clara. During periods when the river is low, the many beaches along the Nanay are popular destinations. The Nanay belongs entirely to the lowlands, and is very crooked, has a slow current and divides into many
canos1 and strings of
lagoons which flood the flat, low areas of
country on either side. It is simply the drainage
ditch of districts which are extensively overflowed in the rainy season. Captain Butt ascended it 195 miles, to near its source.
[1] A
cano is a kind of natural
canal; it forms a lateral discharge for surplus water from a river.
