How to read this map

The Naryn River is about 807 km (501 mi) long and drains a basin of about 59,900 km² (23,100 sq mi). Its average discharge is about 429 m³/s (15,200 cu ft/s). It rises at the Tianshan Mountains and flows into Syr Darya. It flows through or along Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Tributaries include At-Bashi River, Alabuga River, Kökiyrim River, On Archa River, Kökömeren River, Song-Köl, Uzun-Akmat and Chychkan.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Naryn River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Tashkent, Bishkek, Fergana, Namangan, Andijan, Kashgar City, Shymkent and Khujand. Labeled countries: Kyrgyzstan.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Naryn River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Naryn River is, not a surveyed boundary.
