This river in ancient times was of great transport importance. Important trade routes of the Shuya noble merchants passed along it. Navigation stopped after the construction of dams with water mills on the river. This happened in the middle of the 17th century. It was renewed almost a hundred years later.

This is the Teza River, which is of considerable interest for lovers of tourist rafting.

History

Once upon a time, Teza was surrounded by dense forests, its waters were deep and full of water. Strugs (shallow-draft flat-bottomed vessels) were not impeded by rifts and shallows. At the end of the 17th century, the owners of the banks of the Teza began to build mills on the river, blocking it, which began to prevent the passage of plows with goods through the reservoir. The inhabitants of Shuya complained and achieved that the mills were destroyed by decree of Peter, Ivan and Sophia, who reigned in those days. And yet, the owners of the mills achieved the legitimization of their interests in the years 1730-1740, and the plow on the Teza River againstopped.

Only 100 years later, shipping on Teza, after the destruction of the mills, was resumed, and this was facilitated by the rapid development of textile production in the city of Shuya, which required cheaper sales routes. Thanks to the long efforts of the Shuya merchants, a navigation permit was obtained in 1830. However, by that time the river had become so shallow that Emperor Alexander the First, who visited Shuya, had to oblige the merchants and manufacturers of this city to build a lock system at the expense of the state treasury. In 1834, on the Teza (from the mouth to the city of Shuya), they began to build wooden locks with dams and diversion channels, as well as whip bridges, gati and service buildings. With three locks, the operation of the mills was preserved.

In June 1837, navigation was opened through the Teza lock system in a section that was 89 km long.

It should be noted that fishing on the Teza River has always been popular.

Description

The river flows through the territory of the Ivanovo region. The Teza is a left tributary of the Klyazma River. The length of the river channel is 192 kilometers. The source is located in the Kozlovsky swamps, in the Volga region. This place is located 12 kilometers south of the Volga, not far from the Volga-Uvod canal.

At the source, the width of the river does not exceed 8 meters. The water stream flows among amazingly beautiful banks, on which picturesque meadows alternate with forests. The Teza riverbed is winding, and the banks gradually rise in height. The width of the Teza River after the confluence of the Parsha is stronglyincreases, reaching up to 20 meters in some places. One of the largest settlements located on the banks of the river is the city of Shuya. Also on the banks of the river are the rural settlements of Kholu, Dunilovo and Khotiml. To date, 5 dams have been installed here. The first of the locks is located near the village of Sergeevo, and the last is about 2 kilometers from the mouth.

In the upper reaches the river is narrow (up to 7 meters wide), in the middle reaches it slightly widens up to 10 meters, and in the lower reaches 30 meters. Below the city of Shuya, the banks are more open, overgrown with willows. There are oxbow lakes and islets in the channel.

The floodplain of the Teza River has a width of about 300-500 meters in the upper reaches and about 700 meters in the lower. Only near the settlement of Kholuy it reaches a width of about 6 km. This is the confluence of the river with the Klyazma floodplain. Some areas are swampy and overgrown with marsh vegetation. The floodplain during the spring flood is filled with water up to one meter.

Tributaries

Teza has the following tributaries: right - Sebirianka, Salnya, Molokhta, Lemeshok, Tyunikh, Vondyga (or Vyazovka), Nozyga, Sekha (White Kamyshki); left - Under, Lyulekh, Granddaughter, Mardas, Scab, Postna, Mezhitsa.

The largest of them are the rivers Parsha (about 65 km long), Molokhta (49 km) and Lyulekh (60 km).

Attractions

An interesting place is the village of Kholuy with magnificent ancient temple complexes located in it. Rafting on the Teza River is also popular with tourists.

Under the city of Shuya is the Zmeevsky burial ground, whereburials of the Fatyanovo culture were found.

Tezinsky navigable cascade

Below Shuya are the same five dams with locks, which have the following names: No. 5 (2 kilometers from the mouth), Kholuy, Khotiml, Polki and Sergeevo. Once the river in this area was passable for boats. Wooden locks, built in the first half of the 19th century, were used to let ships through until 1994. At the very beginning of the 21st century, adjustable concrete spillways were built on two of them.

During the years of operation of the lock system, the passenger high-speed line "Shuya - Khotiml" operated, which was served by motor ships of the "Zarnitsa" type. On the site near the city of Shuya, the Shuya - 21st kilometer line was in operation, serviced by a motor ship of the Moskvich type. Until the autumn of 1993, the Tezinskaya system was on the balance sheet of the Canal Administration named after. Moscow.

What fish are found in the Teza River?

Judging by the feedback from fishermen, a good catch can be obtained mainly in the upper reaches of the river. A variety of fish species are found in the waters of Teza: bream, perch, ruff, bream, pike, carp, chub, asp, bleak, rotan, roach and roach.

The river is considered convenient for all types of fishing. It should only be noted that due to the large volume of aquatic vegetation, fishing from the shore for spinning is not very effective. On weekends, whole caravans of spinners swim out to the river in motor and rowing boats. At the very grass, where there is a smooth current, you can catch scavengers on a worm, and chub on a crust of black bread. ATin the summer, the fish walks along the entire river, and in the fall it sits in the pool. In October, ruffs live in the depths, and perch is well caught on the worm near the shore. In autumn, after the "summer hibernation" you can also catch burbot.
