Slow-sailing cruise boats offer spectacular views and short stops at historical and cultural sites, such as the worldfamous Three Gorges Dam and the more mysterious Fengdu Ghost Town, which got its reputation from a local folk tale. Tourists can also walk in an ancient city called Jingzhou with city walls and battlefields described in the Chinese literary classic “Romance of the Three Kingdoms.” Further west on the upper reaches of the Yangtze is the scenic canyon Tiger Leaping Gorge, which ranks among the deepest gorges in the world. It get its name from a legend in which a tiger leaped across the fierce waters where the canyon narrows to escape being caught.② THREE GORGES DAM The river’s best-known attraction abroad is the world’s largest hydroelectric project, the Three Gorges Dam, built to control flooding along a stretch of the river in Hubei Province. The dam started operating in 2003 after nine years of construction.
