Magdalena River

River, south-central and northern Colombia. It rises on the eastern slopes of the Andes Mountains in southern Colombia and flows northward for about 950 mi (1,530 km) to empty into the Caribbean Sea near Barranquilla. It has been a major commercial artery since the Spanish conquest, though its importance has diminished.
