[quote=JABAROOTOO ,33383]Hi Al,Curious about your facination with Gongtan. I was there for a couple of days during the summer of 2005. It's a beautiful place and will still be worth the visit if traveling through the district. It was my understanding that the dam would be online by now. That is, the family we stayed with and all the households below the new water level were to be moved to higher ground within a year. That was August 2005. There will of course remain some of the original old town but the old street and the buildings of any significance will be gone.Please read my travel review 'Gongtan, going, going, gone". I'll make some inquiries this week and see if I can give you some good news. It certainly would be far more interesting to visit before the water level rises becuase it is DROWNING A LOT especially the boat trackers paths and some pretty valleys.Get back to you later in the weekJ[/quote]
