Guest:What's the most scenic part of the river to tour ?
Host :The Three Gorges Region .Tourists love this area because of its spectacular scenery
It's also becoming important for other reasons .There are three gorges,Qutang Gorge,Wu Gorge,and Xiling Gorg
The scenery is different in each of the gorges .The distance through all three is about 190 kilometres
These are a lot of tour boats for foreigners travelling through the gorges
It's a trip everyone should take when they visit China.
There's another big project in the Three Gorges,the Three Gorges Dam
The dam is supposed to be finished in 2009 .It should provide more electricity and help control the terrible floods that have happened along the river over the year
It will also raise parts of the river more than 150 metres.I'm not sure what'll do to the gorges and to other places along the river .
