China's Yangtze River (長江) is the third longest river in the world, running 4000 miles from its glacial headwaters on the Tibetan Plateau before it enters the East China Sea at Shanghai. One third of China's population lives in Yangtze river basin. (Wikipedia)
This mural depicts how the Yangtze snakes through enormous and impressive gorges and canyons on its way through the provinces. The mural is on display at the Visitors Center, Yichang in Hubei Province, site of the controversial Three Gorges Dam.
