There are three raging rocky gorges on the Yangtze River named the Three Gorges, Sān Xiá.

The 192 kilometre-long gorges are nestled in between mountains more than 1,000 metres high on both sides. When you travel through Sān Xiá, water rushes past with old trees and ancient buildings completing the beautiful scenery. It is a breathtaking but pleasant experience.

The main part of the key water projects at Sān Xiá on the Yangtze River was finished in 2006. The dam is now able to control floods and generate electric power. The Three Gorges hosts the largest hydroelectric station in the world.

The Yangtze River is often compared to a jade pillow and Sān Xiá is a brilliant pearl on the bell.
