Plura is a river in the municipality of Rana in Nordland county, Norway. The river begins at the lake Kallvatnet, flows through the Plurdalen valley, and ends up as a tributary to the river Ranelva, about north of the town of Mo i Rana. The river is rich with salmon, trout, and Arctic char. The name comes from the Norwegian verb ''"prula"'' which means "boiling" or "seething".

Until 1964, Plura was a large river, washing limestone out of the mountain, creating several caves/tunnels down through the Plurdalen valley.

The Kallvatnet dam made the river Plura almost dry, and the water in Pluragrotta cave became standing still like in a water seal. ==Media gallery== File:Plura A.JPG File:Plura B.JPG File:Plura C.JPG File:Plura D.JPG File:Plura E.JPG File:Plura F.JPG File:Plura G.JPG File:Plura I.JPG File:Plura J.JPG File:Plura K.JPG File:Plura L.JPG File:Plura M.JPG File:Plura N.JPG File:Plura O.JPG File:Plura P.JPG File:Plura Q.JPG File:Plura R.JPG File:Plura S.JPG File:Plura T.JPG File:Plura U.JPG File:Plura V.JPG File:Plura W.JPG File:Plura X.JPG File:Plura Y.JPG File:Plura Z.JPG 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Plura (river)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
