Three Gorges (Yangtze River)

#chinatrip The Three Gorges along the Yangtze River are one of China’s most breathtaking natural and cultural landmarks. Consisting of Qutang, Wu, and Xiling Gorges, this scenic region features dramatic cliffs, misty peaks, and deep valleys. A popular way to experience the beauty of the area is through a Yangtze River cruise, which offers stunning views and stops at historical sites like the Fengdu Ghost City and the Three Gorges Dam—the world’s largest hydroelectric project. While the dam has impacted water levels and local communities, it has also improved flood control and navigation. The Three Gorges remain a must-visit destination for nature lovers and history enthusiasts.
