According to the information recorded in the beginning of the Three Gorges hewn Plank Road, the road is more spacious, vehicles to Malaysia to the trackers and the line side by side with bearers, due to rock weathering, it becomes narrower up Plank Road. Today, shipping, and to facilitate the Three Gorges, ancient Plank Road to no more than a decade away, so the Old Plank Road on the thorns have arisen. Seeing that the Three Gorges Dam reservoir, the Ancient Plank Road will always be in the water, so there are a number of the city on foot, as we come to the Three Gorges, experience the Old Plank Road Adventure's strength of character. I only accounted for a little edge,潇洒走一回Old Plank Road, also regarded as the Three Gorges on foot bar!
