today we are going to visit the yellow river dam project scenic
spot at xiaolangdi in mengjin county luoyang city. as we are
already in luoyang now, i’d like to give you a brief introduction
about this city. luoyang is located in the western part of henan
province, stretching across the middle reaches of the yellow
river. as a city famous for its splendid history and profound
culture, luoyang has become a shining gem in central part of
china for its abundant and characteristic modern civilization. it
is among the first cities to be declared by the state council as
the ancient capitals and famous historical and cultural cities.
luoyang is one of the cradles of chinese civilization and is one
of the four great ancient capitals of china. starting from the
first dynasty of china--- xia, it served as capital for 13 dynasties,
which is the first one to have served as the capital for the most
numerous dynasties and for the longest time. now, luoyang
has become one of the excellent tourist cities in china and is
striving for the title of the best tourist city in china.

lying in mengjin county 40 kilometers north of luoyang city,
xiaolangdi dam project is not only a milestone in the history of
the continuing effort to tame the yellow river, but also a
masterpiece in the history of world hydro-engineering. the

main objectives of the project are: flood control, ice jam
control, siltation control, irrigation, water supply, as well as
hydroelectric power generation. xiaolangdi scenic area is
divided into four grand areas, which are xiaolangdi dam, jinzi
mountain, bali gorge and the sanmenxia dam. there are 13
sightseeing districts and 113 scenic spots. each spot has its
own historical stories; therefore, we can appreciate the scenic
glamour of large mountains with lakes, gorges and rivers
featured by the middle-lower reaches of the yellow river project.

okay, everybody, now we’ve arrived at the yellow river dam
scenic spot at xiaolangdi. we will have three hours to visit this
scenic spot, now it is 8am that is to say you should come back
here at 11am at exactly the same place at the parking lot on
time. please remember our bus number yu al1001. my phone
now is 123, if you have any need, please call me. now please
take your valuable things along with you and get ready to get
off the bus.

well, ladies and gentlemen, we have now arrived at the
xiaolangdi dam. the dam project is not just an eye catching
feature of the whole scenic area, it also creates three firsts in
the world and six firsts in china. this vast record breaking
construction is 1667 meters long with a height of 154 meters.
the whole project consists of ten intake towers, nine flood and
sediment tunnels, six power tunnels and an underground
powerhouse. following the completion of the project a vast
reservoir covering 272 square kilometers has been formed
above the dam. the views across this vast shimmering man-
made lake surrounded by towering mountains are amazing.

let’s head for the three gorges of yellow river. we will
appreciate these sceneries on the ferry. the three gorges are
the essence of this scenic area on the yellow river. situated on
the upper reaches of xiaolangdi dam, the gorges cover an area
of 40 square kilometers. each gorge has its own
characteristics. bali gorge forms the narrowest part of these
reaches of the river and the water gushes between the sheer
cliffs on either side. gushan gorge is extraordinary as if it were
cut out by some supernatural beings while the dragon and
phoenix gorge winds snake-like between steep sides. all in all
the three georges of the yellow river present uniquely beautiful
water and mountain scenery in northern region of china.

here’s the bali gorge, bali gorge is also nicknamed bali by-
street. it is the last section of the yellow river gorges and it is
the narrowest. cliffs stand straight up on either side as if they
have been cut through by a giant sword. the narrow and steep
valleys continue upwards appearing to almost join the sky.
seen from a distance, these beautiful valleys connect with
each other to form a natural door, thus they have been called
the door of the yellow river. the current here is wild and strong
and waves continually dash against the shore .the whole gorge
is splendid.

now we are at the gushan gorge. gushan gorge goes from
south to north. here mountains and water become an
inseparable whole; pavilions and small wooden houses stand
beside the water and adorn the mountain sides. when visiting
this place, you will be touched by the grand landscape and
surrounded by a strong sense of poetry. in this gorge, natural
beauties and sceneries of humanities are interwoven,
enhancing the beauty of each other.

here’s dragon and phoenix gorge. the dragon and phoenix
gorge twists and turns through steep cliffs, so it used to be
called as “nine-dragon bay” but now people changed it to
dragon and phoenix gorge because this gorge and its another
scenic spot phoenix platform enlighten each other forming a
natural picture which indicates harmony. for that reason this
gorge has been endowed with many romantic names, like
lovers island, lovesickness waterfall, dragon and phoenix pond,
and so on. some would say that this is a perfect place for
lovers!

ok, so much for my explanation. now you will have one hour
to go around when we get off the ferry and take some photos if
you like. but please do remember we will meet here at 10am,
then we will head back. please be there on time. thanks for
your cooperation, wish you a pleasant journey, thank you!
