Wakhan River (Dari: آب واخان Āb-i-Wākhān; Pashto: واخان سیند Wākhān Sīnd; Tajik: واخاندريا Vaxondaryo) is the name of the Sarhadd branch of the Panj River along its upper length in the Wakhan District of Badakhshan Province of Afghanistan.It is formed by the confluence of the Wakhjir River and the Bozai River near Kashch Goz and Bozai Gumbaz, some 40 km west of the Wakhjir Pass.[1] Shortly thereafter, the Little Pamir comes to an end, and the conjoined river contracts into a narrow, deep, rapid river, delimited by cliffs and steep hills.[3] At Sarhadd the river contracts into a wider valley, which is more populated.You can help Wikipedia by expanding it.This Badakhshan Province, Afghanistan location article is a stub.
