Along the River

A collection of homes in a town along the river. Millions of people have been displaaced by the dam; some are very happy to have new homes and new opportunities. A special road was built in 1996 to link some of the new communities. It is 28 km long, of which 40% is tunnels and bridges. Some real feats of engineering have been involved to complete this road.
