Tygde

The Tygde winds across the Amur–Zeya upland before joining the Zeya from the west. Its valley is often marshy and its current slow, with gentle banks and wooded hills beyond. The river's name is associated with an Evenki word for rain or bad weather. Streams from the plateau gather in its course, and the Zeya carries their waters south to the Amur. Wetlands and forest make this a landscape of changing channels and broad, low ground.
