- Source: Muya (river)
The Muya (Russian: Муя) is a left tributary of the Vitim in Buryatia, Russia. It is 365 kilometres (227 mi) long and has a drainage basin of 11,900 square kilometres (4,600 sq mi).
The area through which the river flows is sparsely populated, the only settlement on the river being Taksimo, with the village of Ust-Muya located where the river flows into the Vitim, nearly opposite from the mouth of the Kuanda in the facing bank. The Muya is navigable for small craft from the Vitim around 70 kilometres (43 mi) to Taksimo.
The Muya has lent its name to a number of other geographic features, including the Northern Muya Range, the Southern Muya Range, the Muya-Kuanda Depression, as well as the local Muya District.
Tributaries
The longest tributary of the Muya is the 180 kilometres (110 mi) long Muyakan on the left.
