Iriga

…A river that originates in the Tianshan Mountains and flows through China and Kazakhstan. Its Chinese name is the Yili River. The Tekes River flows east from the north side of the Tianshan's main peak, Khan Tengri (6,995m), and joins the Kungis River from the eastern Tianshan Mountains to form the Ili River, which then merges with the Kash River to form the Ili Basin in the northwest of China's Xinjiang region, and then flows east to northwest through the Republic of Kazakhstan, emptying into the eastern shore of Lake Balkhash in the south.

*Some of the terminology that refers to "Iri River" is listed below.
