Terrain, waters and landscape
Waters
The Gafarli Stream, whose flow rate varies depending on seasonal precipitation, is one of the large and small drainage lines in the Sumbas basin. Providing the lifeblood for small-scale agricultural lands around it, the stream is also an important water source for local fauna. Although its water level drops significantly in dry summer months, it flows thunderously in winter and spring. You can use the Harita screen to follow the bed of the stream. Such small streams form the capillaries of Türkiye's river basins.
