The Tupalangdarja (or Tupalang ; Uzbek Toʻpolondaryo ; Russian Тупалангдарья ) is the right source river of the Surxondaryo in Uzbekistan . The Tupalangdarja has a length of 117 km. The catchment area covers 2200 km².
The Tupalangdarja arises on the southern slopes of the Baisuntau -Gebirgszugs. It is fed by its glaciers . It flows mainly in a south-southeast direction through the mountains. Before it leaves the mountains, it is dammed by a dam . It finally reaches the plain about 25 km from its mouth. This continues over the Hissar valley to the east and over the Surxondaryo valley to the south. The city of Sariosiyo is located on the left bank of the Tupalangdarja river. The Obizarang flows into the river shortly afterwards on the left. Finally, the Tupalangdarja meets the Karatag and unites with it to form the Surxondaryo.
