The Khrami (Georgian: ხრამი, Azerbaijani: Anaxatır), in its upper course Ktsia, is a river in eastern Georgia and western Azerbaijan, and a right tributary of the Kura (Mtkvari). It is 201 km (125 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 8,340 km2 (3,220 sq mi).[1][2] The Khrami originates in the Trialeti Range and flows into a deep valley. It is fed primarily by snow. Its main tributaries are the Debed and Mashavera rivers. The Tsalka Reservoir and three hydroelectric power plants are built on the Khrami.
