Three Gorges Dam Locks
Our midnight transit of the series of locks at the Three Gorges Dam was definitely worth staying up for. It was amazing to see how many ships and boats could be loaded into one lock without colliding with one another. The Three Gorges Dam was completed in May 2006 and is the largest dam in the world. In addition to providing hydroelectric power, the dam has improved navigation on the Yangtze River and will help prevent flooding.

After a short bus ride from our ship, we arrived at the Visitor Center, which has a large indoor scale model of the dam and locks. The detailed model gives an excellent overview of the entire project, as well as giving one an appreciation for the monumental scope of this undertaking. Outside, visitors can stroll through a beautifully laid out viewing area, where you can look down on the locks, the channel and the dam.
