▲ The great man once prophesied in his poem "Prelude to water melody - swimming": "Walls of stone will stand upstream to the west To hold back Wushan's clouds and rain Till a smooth lake rises in the narrow gorges. The mountain goddess if she is still there Will marvel at a world so changed." Building a dam on the Yangtze River was the great man's dream, a major undertaking for national welfare and people's livelihood, and a grand strategic initiative. The Three Gorges Dam in the Xiling Gorge section of Yichang, officially named the Yangtze River Three Gorges Water Control Project, is also known as the Three Gorges Project.
