    We started at 'You are here' and walked the upward path along the river.
    1This man sounded a long welcome horn as we arrived.2At the beginning of the walk was a lovely performance.Crazy crowds. Last day of Golden Week.1A few fun local area residents.1Actual home of a very wealthy family from ~100 yrs ago (repaired/reinforced for current viewing).Monkey Mountain at the top of the path: too many monkeys to count.Working our way back down.1The tribes buried their dead in elevated caves; the higher the better, closer to heaven.Part of the walk included a recreation of a traditional wedding.Life.The road to/from the tribal area hugged the Yangtze and was pretty curvy.Three Gorges Dam -- a more-than-impressive sight to behold.One of the Three Gorges viewing points.1
