Simada

Simada (Amharic: ስማዳ) is a woreda in the Amhara Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Debub Gondar Zone, Simada is bordered on the southeast by the Bashilo River which separates it from the Debub Wollo Zone, on the southwest by the Abay River which separates it from the Misraq Gojjam Zone, on the west by Misraq Este, on the north by Lay Gayint, and on the northeast by Tach Gayint. Part of this woreda's boundary with Este is defined by the Musafa River at the northern border and Yiba River at the southern border. Both rivers combined together before becoming a tributary of the Abay (The White Nile).
