The three Gorges dam is built on Yangtze river. It is a hydro electric project and has world's largest installed capacity (22,500 MW).
The Three Gorges Dam is being built on the Yangtze River in South Central China.
To control flooding along the Huang River, people have built a series of dams, levees, and flood control channels. The most notable structure is the Three Gorges Dam, which helps manage water flow and reduce the risk of flooding. Additionally, extensive levee systems have been constructed to protect agricultural land and urban areas from floodwaters. These measures aim to mitigate the impact of seasonal flooding and enhance water management in the region.
The most effective measures for prevention against inundation are: 1. to avoid residing on river banks and slopes on river sides and the sides of gorges. 2. to build at least 250 meters away from the sea coast/river banks 3. to build proper drainage system in all flood prone areas, so that the water can be drained off quickly to prevent accumulation. 4. to construct the building with a plinth level higher than the known high flood level. 5. to construct the whole village or settlement on a raised platform higher than the high flood level. 6. to construct buildings on stilts or columns with wall-free space at ground level permitting free flow of water (inundation or flowing), provided that columns are circular and strong. In dry weather condition the ground area could be fenced and used for cattle, sheep poultry farming, or storage etc.

The Three Gorges Dam was being constructed across the Chang Jiang River because there are some shallow parts in the river both upstream and downstream. The shallow parts would affect the boats that were in those parts.

The purpose of the 3 gorges dams are to establish a modern way of living, or atleast to help. the 3 gorges dam was an idea that was invented in 1909 and was approved on 1992 and finished 2009.
Black River Gorges National Park was created in 1994.
The Nile River has several gorges along its course, but it is most notably associated with the Great Bend of the Nile near Jinja, Uganda, where it flows through a gorge. However, the exact number of gorges can vary depending on how they are defined and the specific segments of the river being considered. Overall, the Nile is characterized by a mix of canyons and rapids rather than a high number of distinct gorges.
