It flows through the territory of Russia and the border of Russia and China. Length - 2824 km (from the confluence of Shilka and Argun). It falls into the Sea of Okhotsk. The name of the river came from the common basis for the Tungus-Manchu languages, “amar”, “damur” - “big river”. The Chinese called Cupid “Heihe” (Chinese. 黑河, “Black River”) - “black river”, then “Heilongjiang” - (Chinese. 黑龙江, “Black Dragon River”). According to legend, in ancient times, a black dragon, who lived in the river and personified good, defeated the evil, white, dragon, who drowned boats on the river, prevented people from fishing and generally attacked any living creature. The winner stayed to live at the bottom of the river in the area of the Khingan cheeks, which is on the border of the Amur and Jewish Autonomous Regions. Since then, this river has been called the Black Dragon River. The “Tail” of the Black Dragon is located in the steppes of Mongolia and Dauria, the “torso” lies in four Russian regions and in one Chinese province. Two left “paws” reach the Stanovoy ridge, where the tributaries of the Amur - Zeya and Bureya begin, and two right “paws” - the tributaries of the Sungari and Ussuri - in China and Primorye. The "head" of the Dragon rests on the Sea of Okhotsk, and he "drinks water" of the Tatar Strait. The length of the "body" of the Black Dragon from the "tail" to the "head" is more than 4,500 km, and the area of the Amur basin reaches 1.8 million square meters. km The Mongols called Amur "Amur Hara-Muren" - "black wide river." In Manchu, the river is called “Sakhaliyan ula”, where “Sakhaliyan” means “black” and “ula” means “water”. The Amur River itself begins after the confluence of the Shilka River - the "narrow valley" in Evenki and Argun - "wide" (ergun) in translation from Mongolian.
