Qom (River)

Qom (River)

The Qom River receives its water from the Zagros Mountain and the Namak Lake. It is a larger river in Iran, flows through the city of Qom and together with the Qareh Su it gains a length of approximately 400 km. The water level strongly fluctuates between 312 m³/s and only 4 m³/s. This is also produced by taking water for irrigations.
