长江三峡水利枢纽工程，简称三峡工程或三峡大坝，是中国长江上游段建设的大型水利工程项目。分布在重庆市到湖北省宜昌市的长江干流上，大坝位于三峡西陵峡内的宜昌市夷陵区三斗坪，并和其下游不远的葛洲坝水电站形成梯级调度电站。它是世界上规模最大的水电站，是中国也是世界上有史以来建设的最大的水壩。

三峡水电站的机组布置在大坝的后侧，共安装32台70万千瓦水轮发电机组，其中左岸14台，右岸12台，右岸地下6台，另外还有2台5万千瓦的电源机组，总装机容量2250万千瓦，年发电量约1000亿度。而由它所引发的移民、环境等诸多问题，使它从开始筹建的那一刻起，便始终与巨大的争议相伴[2][3]。

It’s all Greek to me
Join a tour group, but make sure the guide only speaks the native language, of which you only know the word for “toilet”.

And I’m the only one
It’s more confusing if you are the only foreigner in the tour group. But if you want some fun, try to find one other traveler so you can roll your eyes together and make up hypothetical explanations for the gibberish. It’s like watching Spanish soap operas with no subtitles.

The devil is in the details
Pick a tourist attraction that has many pertinent details and dates that would lend itself to a guide. An engineering feat or historical location is a good ideas.
