Mountains surround the Three Gorges Dam in China on the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River is one of the most fascinating rivers in the world, and a river cruise is a wonderful way to see the river scenery and learn about the history and importance of the Yangtze. The river will significantly change when the Three Gorges Dam is completed, but it still will be a fascinating cruise destination.
