The river is heavily polluted, so swimming in it is not advisable.
Dniester The Dniester River Romanian: Nistru, ) is a river in Eastern Europe. It runs first through Ukraine and then through Moldova(from which it separates the breakaway territory of Transnistria), finally discharging into the Black Sea on Ukrainian territory again. The Dniester rises in Ukraine, near the city of Drohobych, close to the border with Poland, and flows toward the Black Sea. Its course marks part of the border of Ukraine and Moldova, after which it flows through Moldova for 398 kilometres (247 mi), separating the bulk of Moldova's territory from Transnistria. It later forms an additional part of the Moldova-Ukraine border, then flows through Ukraine to the Black Sea, where its estuary forms the Dniester Liman. Along the lower half of the Dniester, the western bank is high and hilly while the eastern one is low and flat. The river represents the de facto end of the Eurasian Steppe. Its most important tributaries are Răut and Bîc.
Prut The Prut (also spelled in English Pruth; Romanian pronunciationis a 953 km (592 mi) long river in. Eastern Europe. In part of its course it forms Romania's border with Moldova and Ukraine. Legend In one village lived a boy who was called Prut. One time he worked for so long that by the evening decided to stay overnight in the mountains. He found a big pine tree and slept underneath it. During his sleep he saw a wonderful dream as a very beautiful girl all in green came to him. The girl stroked his hair and sang a song. But, as the boy stretched towards her hand, she disappeared right away. He woke up, and no one was around. He only noticed a green ribbon on a branch. That girl fell into his soul and he decided to find her. The next evening he again lay under the pine tree but did not sleep. As darkness fell he saw that from under the ground appeared that girl who went straight to the place where Prut hid. As she neared the tree the boy jumped out and hugged her. He asked her what her name was. She at first looked at him in fright but then smiled and said "Hoverla". After that night Prut was almost never seen in the village. All the time he spent in the mountains. They fell in love. However, Hoverla was a daughter of the mountain tsar; therefore she could not come down from the mountains among people. Once her father learned of her love, he cursed her. She could not live any longer without her love and jumped down from a high cliff. Immediately a terrible wind rose that destroyed everything in its path. The next morning once again appeared the sun and people saw that in place of a valley now appeared a big mountain. For a long time Prut sought Hoverla. He ran onto the mountain and heard her voice. He never returned to people. Since then flowed down a mountain river, laying a path between rocks. People named the river Prut, and the mountain Hoverla.
