Teweh

Teweh lies where a river of that name joins the upper Barito in the forested interior of Borneo. The settlement at the confluence is known as Muara Teweh, its name recalling the mouth of the tributary. The Barito connects this flat stretch of river country with valleys farther upstream and with southern Borneo downstream. The Teweh River adds another route into the surrounding interior, where forest and tributary streams cover the land beyond the main channel.
