In this point, there is the confluence of the Arnoia and the Miño rivers.
Miño is the principal river in Galicia, is the longest and with more flow.
I put two definition of wikipedia about this two rivers:

It is born in the town of Villar de Barrio , from the confluence of several streams in the Sierra de San Mamede . The main tributaries of the Arnoia are the Maceda River , the Ambía River and the Ourille River . It bathes the municipalities of Villar de Barrio , Baños de Molgas , Junqueira de Ambía , Allariz , La Merca and Celanova , later marking the boundary between the municipalities of Ramiranes and Gomesende (in the north) and Cartelle (in the south). Finally, it reaches the municipality of A Arnoia. The total length of the Arnoia River is 84.5 kilometers, making it the longest river in the province of Orense .

There is a homonymous river in Portugal , the Arnóia river .

The Miño is a river in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula , which runs entirely through the autonomous community of Galicia , although in its final section it forms the border between Spain and Portugal before flowing into the Atlantic Ocean . It is 315 km long and drains a wide basin of 12 486 km². It is the longest river in Galicia, and the largest after receiving the waters of the Sil , longer and mightier than the Miño itself up to the point of confluence, but it loses in the angle that determines which is the main one. Hence, the well-known popular proverb: "The Miño is famous and the Sil gives him water."
