Snezhnaya

The Snezhnaya (Снежная lit: Snowy) is a river in Buryatia and Irkutsk Oblast, Siberia, Russia.

Course
It is one of the main rivers that feeds into Lake Baikal. It is named after how most of the water in the river gets into the river: from snowmelt. The river starts in the Khamar-Daban mountains, where snow melting during warm weather (and rainfall) gets into the river and runs down the mountain. It is 173 km long, and has a drainage basin of 3020 km2.

In popular culture
Snezhnaya is the name of one of the seven nations of Teyvat in the video game Genshin Impact.
