Last revised: 1 Feb 2002
Alternate display options:.[Show thumbnails].
   

Ever since the decision was made  to build the Three Gorges Dam, a cruise through the gorges has taken on a new perspective as many travelers realize that time is running out for experiencing one of the world's great  natural wonders.  Rising out of the Tangula Mountain in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the mighty Yangtze River twists and turns for about 3838 miles and empties into the East China Sea.  The river is the longest in China and the third longest in the world after the Amazon and the Nile. It has always been a lifeline for transporting people, products and everyday supplies
