　　Currently the Three Gorges region is most famous for the Three Gorges Dam.The Three gorgesDam is under construction at a place called Sandouping in the middle of the Xiling Gorge. Thedam is not yet complete，but the construction has already cut off the flow of the river，andtherefore the water level in the Qutang，Wuxia，and the western portion of the Xiling gorgeshas already begun to rise. In addition to the impact of the dam on the ecology and people(i.e. the mass relocation of towns and villages)of the region，the dam will also change thescenery of the Three Gorges. Because the water level will be higher，the gorges will be lessnarrow and the mountains will appear lower. Proponents of the dam point out that because themountains reach several thousand feet above the river，the gorges are still likely to offerspectacular views of the surrounding cliffs，and it should be noted that most riverboatcompanies that operate in the three Gorges intend to continue to offer tours of the region.The increase in width of the Gorges will also allow larger ships through the gorges and it isanticipated that river traffic of all kinds will increase.
