The Iazu Morilor River is an old artificial canal, built for a succession of water mills. It originates in the Prahova River near the locality of Floreşti and flows into the Cricovul Dulce River in Romania. The original water mills for which the canal was built have been dismantled and do not exist any more. At present the canal is used for local water supply and irrigation.
