Vltava River, Prague

The Vltava ( Moldau in German) is the longest river in the Czech Republic, running north from its source in Sumava through Cesky Krumlov , Ceske Budejovice , and Prague, merging with the Elbe (Labe) at Melnik.

It is 430 kilometers long and drains about 28,090 square kilometers; at their confluence the Vltava actually has more water than the Elbe, but joins the Elbe at a right angle to its flow so that it appears a mere tributary.
Several dams were built on it in the 1950s, the biggest being Lipno Dam in Sumava.
