Lower Morava Valley
The Lower Morava Valley is a geomorphological formation in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
It is formed by the depression in the Western Carpathians in the west and Bílé Karpaty and Chvojnice Hills in the east. The drainage to the Morava River of the Danube basin runs finally to the Black Sea.
It includes the low watershed of the Dyje-Morava in Lanžhot.
Geography
The Lower Morava Valley is a nordest part of the Vienna Basin and the corridor to Napajedla Gate, Upper Morava Valley, Moravian Gate and later in the final goal, the North European Plain since ancient times. Here ran one arm of the most important trade routes from southern Europe to the Baltic Sea and also routes from Moravia to Upper Silesia and Lesser Poland. The Emperor Ferdinand Northern Railway built in 1840–41 from Břeclav to Přerov also traversed the Lower Morava Valley.The Morava and Thaya rivers, Myjava (river), Chvojnice, Trkmanka, Kyjovka as well among others, finish here in their floodplains.
The largest towns in Lower Morava Valley are Břeclav, Hodonín, Uherské Hradiště, Staré Město, Dubňany, and Strážnice.
