Енисей: Душа Сибири | Интересные факты про реку Енисей

Today we'll talk about the Yenisei. The living soul of Siberia. This mighty river runs almost across the entire continent, sharply and boldly dividing the Siberian lands into Western and Eastern Siberia. Throughout its vast journey—from the frost-covered, gray Mongolian cliffs to the bitterly cold Kara Sea—the Yenisei flows freely and directly across Russia. In its endless, deep water and in the boundless taiga expanses beats the heart of wild Siberian nature, making it one of the most full-flowing and powerful rivers on our planet. The dimensions of this giant are staggering. Its length from Kyzyl in Tuva, where the Big and Little Yenisei brothers meet, is 3,487 km. If you peer into its most hidden cradle and measure its path from its true Mongolian source, this colossal route stretches for almost 5,075 km, making the Yenisei one of the world's five longest rivers. Its basin is so vast that it would cover all of Western Europe under its green taiga wing—its area exceeds 2.58 million square kilometers. Every second, this titan gives the ocean a full sigh of 20,000 cubic meters of water. In this respect, the Yenisei simply has no equal in Russia.
