Travelers show their tickets for China’s first high-speed railway running through the Three Gorges reservoir region yesterday. The 247-km railway section connects Wanzhou City, where the Three Gorges is located, and southwestern Chongqing Municipality. With a designed speed of 250 km per hour, high-speed trains on the line will cut travel time from four hours to one and a half hours from Wanzhou to Chongqing.Xinhua
