Image shows the Zipingpu Dam, upriver from the town of Dujiangyan, Sichuan, China Pre Earthquake.

On Wednesday, May 14, 2008, thousands of Chinese troops rushed to plug cracks in the dam in earthquake-hit Sichuan province, but experts later said it was safe.

I remember this part of China as beautiful, peaceful, and friendly. The people in this part of china are exceptionally spiritual and friendly. These pictures were taken on a grueling 12 hour bus ride from Chengdu to Songpan.

Here are some links to other images from the Earthquake. Warning Graphic
