The Sarydschas ( kirghiz Сарыжаз ; Russian Сарыджаз ; chinese  阿克苏河 , Pinyin Akesu Hé ) is a river in Tienschan in southeastern Kyrgyzstan in Issyk Kul Region .

The Saryjas forms the upper reaches of the Kumarik in Kyrgyzstan. The saryjas originate in the far east of Kyrgyzstan. It is fed by the Semyonov glacier on the northern slope of the Saryjas chain. From there it initially flows west, then bends south. From this point, the A364 trunk road follows the course of the river for about 40 km. The Saryjas takes in the Kuilju tributary from the right. The Engiltschek , the largest tributary of the Saryjas, flows into the river from the left at the village of Engiltschek . The highway ends about 10 km further south just before the confluence of the Kaindy from the left. The rivers Ütschköl and Ak-Schyirak meet the Saryjas from the right. Then the Saryjas turns sharply to the east and breaks through the main ridge of the Tienschan. The Saryjas reaches the border with the People's Republic of China after 165 km . Downstream the river is called Kumarik . The catchment area of ​​the Saryjas covers 12,900 km². The mean discharge is 140 m³ / s.
