Article from "The Guardian" about a mountain community fighting plans for a giant dam in the Tiger Leaping Gorge in Yunnan. Dam is a "hot" issue in China right now, especially in Yunnan.
"The story of the Chezhou protest earlier this year is slowly spreading beyond this remote community and is now being told up and down the reaches of this spectacular gorge..."
The village that refused to die, Tiger Leaping Gorge, Yunnan

2 years 22 weeks 7 hours 30 min agoI just had a friend introduce me to Tiger Leaping Gorge. It's a sad fact that I'm continually in a sense of rush to see the beautiful and natural parts of China before they are consumed by things to come.
