Where does the water in a river flows into?
That would depend entirely on the river, but eventually it all ends up in the oceans. Some rivers flow into other rivers. Some flow into Lakes which may then feed another river or rivers. Some may even seem to just disappear (usually this would be a river that empties into a lake that then feeds off into underwater streams and rivers). The end result is the same. All water on the planet eventually makes it's way to the oceans if it doesn't evaporate into the atmosphere first.
