The pathways worn into the stone above the river where coolies used to pull boats upriver against strong currents have disappeared forever. Markings in many places recording the river depth in many places. The river rose up to 30 meters or more when in flood stage. The hundreds of steps climbing from the river to cities perched above the flood stage are submerged. Many other artifacts being dug on archiological sites were abandoned. Many cities and farmland were relocated to "modern" cement replacement cities and less fertile mountain farm sites as the originals were lost. An ancient and unique way of life along the river higwy has been forever altered. And three of the most beautiful wild river gorges in the world were submerged forever. It is almost as if the Grand Canyon were damed and filled with a giant lake.

Three Gorges Dam
First the Three Gorges Dam is way bigger and second the Three Gorges Dam is located on the Yangtze River. The Yangtze river is used for commercial shipping and the Colorado river is not used for shipping so the Three Gorges Dam has locks on the side for the passing of ships
The sustainiblity of 3 gorges dam in china is 100 to 120 billion.
The three gorges dam is in china along the Yangtze River. The dam site is 27 miles upstream from Yichang City.
The Tree Gorges Dam in China is the world's largest dam project. It has already changed the surrounding ecology and geography. The Three Gorges Dam itself, however, is not intended to change over time.
Three Gorges Dam is 101m high, 2309m long and 115m thick at its basin
