The Amasar ( Russian Амаза́р ) is a left tributary of the Amur in the Mogochinsky Rajon of the Transbaikalia region in southern eastern Siberia .

The Amasar arises in the southeastern foothills of the Oljokminski Stanowik mountain range at the confluence of its two source rivers Bolshoi Amasar ("Big Amasar", right) and Maly Amasar ("Little Amasar", right). It flows mainly in an easterly direction. He passes the small town of Mogotscha , where the Mogotscha flows to him, and later the place Amasar , where he receives the water of the Bolshaya Chitschatka . In the upper reaches of the Amasar flows along the northern boundary of the Amasar Mountains . Below Amasar it turns to the southeast and cuts through the range of the Amasar Mountains. The Uteni meets the Amasar on the left. Finally the Amasar reaches the Amur, 44 km below the union of Argun and Shilka . The Amasar has a length of 290 km. It drains an area of ​​11,100 km². The annual discharge of the Amasar is 1.96 km³.

The river is usually covered with ice between October and late April / early May. Heavy rainfall can lead to flooding in the summer months. In winter, the Amasar can freeze to the ground in places (over a period of 3 to 5 months).
