Dnieper River

The Dnieper River, which is shown in a live camera, flows through the territory of three countries: Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. The mouth of the river in the web camera, is located near the Bocharovo village in the Smolensk region, in the south of the Valdai Hills, and the source flows into the Dnieper estuary of the Black Sea.

Since ancient times, the Dnieper you see in live camera, has been an important waterway. It was first mentioned in the 5th century BC. In the distant past, this river connected the Baltic with the Black Sea. The Dnieper, where the online camera is aimed at, played an important role in the history of Old Russian state formation.

The Dnieper, perfectly demonstrated in live feed, has several tributaries: Desna, Berezina, Sozh, Seym and Pripyat.

According to scientists, Rusanovsky Bay and the Strait, as well as the Hydropark Island, did not exist here before. All of them appeared as a result of the spring flood. In particular, Rusanovsky Bay arose at the beginning of the 19th century as a result of the natural confluence of several lakes: Rusanovsky, Vasilyevsky and Sanctuary. Later, Rusanovsky Bay became a strait.

The modern Hydropark appeared as a result of a strong spring water rise, breaking through the Dnieper Dam, destroying Rusanovsky Bridge and Chortory Dam.

Thanks to such spills appeared Trukhanov Island. Today, its northern part is called Muromets.
