Ba River (Vietnamese: Sông Ba, also known as Ea Pa, Ia Pa, Krông Pa or Đà Rằng River) is a river in the South Central Coast region of Vietnam. It has its source in Kon Tum Province and flows into the South China Sea in Tuy Hòa, Phú Yên Province.[1] It has the largest river valley area in central Vietnam[2] and one of the largest river systems in central Vietnam with a total basin area of 13,900 km² or 4.19% of Vietnam's total area.[1] It has a total length of 374 km.
The river's water volume varies significantly throughout the year, with only 47 and 45 m3/s in March and April and 366, 682, and 935 m3/s in September, October, and November.[1]
History
Remains from different periods have been found along Ba River. They include a Sanskrit inscription from the fifth century at its mouth and various Champa sites, including the citadel Thanh Ho around 15 km inland.[2] The river certainly provided an important route far into the interior for the Cham people,[2] who were involved in trade with both their highland hinterlands and seagoing merchants.
