The term is also used to describe the meeting of tidal or other non-riverine
bodies of water, such as two canals or a canal and a lake. Below is a collection
of 10 incredible confluences around the world. For more, there is a fascinating
list of notable confluences on Wikipedia that I recommend you check out.
The confluences below were selected for their dramatic visual contrast. Thus,
culturally significant confluences such as the Sangam near Allahabad, India,
where the sacred rivers Ganges, Yamuna and Saraswati meet to create one of
the holiest places in Hinduism, were not included for this reason. Please enjoy
the list below and let us know of any other interesting confluences you are
aware of. Perhaps we can do a follow-up post if there is interest!
