The rivers I expect you to know are listed in brackets. I’ve arranged the cities here by river, i.e. listing together ones that are located along the same river (or in close proximity and connected). They are listed in order as you travel downriver from the source. NOTE: the terms right bank and left bank refer to the side of the river as if you are standing in mid stream with the water flowing back-to-front (facing downstream).
