Three Gorges Dam Photos

The Three Gorges Dam is one of the most impressive engineering projects in the world, and seeing it from the water and from actually being on it, gives a real sense of its scale. These photos were taken during my visit and as the Victoria Selina passed through the dam’s vast lock system while sailing up the Yangtze River. From the surrounding landscape to the structure itself, this gallery captures a memorable part of the cruise.
