Thika River : ウィキペディア英語版
Thika River
The Thika River flows through central Kenya and is a tributary of Tana River. The Thika River is a significant source of hydroelectric power in Kenya and provides most of the water supply for Nairobi, Kenya's capital and largest city.
The name ''Thika'' originates either from the Kikuyu language or from the Maasai language.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Municipal council of Thika: Background information )〕 It may relate to the Kikuyu word ''guthika'', which means ''to bury''.〔 It also resembles the Maasai word ''sika'', which means ''to rub something away from an edge''.〔
==Course==
The Thika River originates in the Aberdare Range. It flows to the Tana River, which empties into the Indian Ocean.〔
A landmark along the river's course is Thika Falls, near the town of Thika. Thika Falls has a drop of about 25 meters in a wilderness area within walking distance of the Blue Post Hotel, which is one of the oldest hotels in Kenya.〔
