(巴王宫) King Ba palace We can see an ancient building in the mountain.That is the King Ba palace.Long time ago the Ba Nationality tribes lived here.The ancient Ba Nationality was one of the minorities in the southwest China.It died out in the Three Gorges area two thousand years ago.The construction of the Ba tribes is blockhouse or fortre.The King Ba Palace is rebuilt at the riverside of Xiling Gorge and modeled on the architecture of the ancient Ba tribes.The Ba people worshiped at tigers and so we can also call it Tiger Castle.The King Ba Palace was the residence of the last king of the Ba tribes and his nationality after they retreated in the Three Gorges area and it was also a military fort to stand against enemies.Some Tujia Nationality people that are the descendants of the ancient Ba Nationality are still living here and later we will hear their songs and participate in their wedding performance.（蛤蟆泉）Toad spring 2 This is the Toad Spring.The spring runs day and night and provides the best water for tea making.Lu Yu, who was a famous scholar in the Tang dynasty, drunk the water from the spring and called it “the forth spring in the world”.Before the construction of Gezhouba Dam and Three Gorges Dam, there was a stone like a toad by the spring.The Toad Spring is named after the stone.Although the toad is underwater, the spring still exists.（往龙进溪的路上）On the way to Dragon Stream We will walk by the riverside about 10 minutes to the Dragon Stream.The statues we see along the walkway by the riverside are totems of the ancient Ba Nationality in the Three Gorges area.We are now in the Shadow-play Gorge which is a part of the Xiling Gorge.The elegant Xiling Gorge is the longest in the three gorges with a total length of 76 km.The great gorge is known for the dangerous and spectacular landscape.In Xiling Gorge, there used to be many reefs and gorges.Series of gorges and reefs made water flow speedy and complex here.Xiling gorge was famous for a lot of rapids and dangerous shoals.After we built Gezhouba dam and Three Gorges dam, the water level rose up and the reefs and shoals were underwater.The three Gorges include: the Qutang Gorge which features magnificence, the Wu Gorge which features serenity and beauty, and the Xiling Gorge which features numerous shoals and rapids.长江三峡 The mysterious and splendid Yangtze Three Gorges are the exclusive ones that can provide tourists a whole long gorge tour in the world.
