Tiszakóród is a village in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county, in the Northern Great Plain region of eastern Hungary. To the west of the village is the river Túr. This is where the water of the Tour flows into the Tisza. The interesting thing about the place is that due to the often very high water level of the Tisza, the water of the Túr River is allowed into the Tisza through a so-called fall dam, so that during high water levels the Tisza does not swell back the Túr water. The walnut groves next to the ditch and the Túr, which flows like a waterfall, are a popular place for hiking and bathing in the area in summer.
