The Institute was set up by the Chongqing Teacher's College, the Chongqing Municipal Cultural Administration, the Chongqing Academy of Social Sciences, the Dazu Stone Inscription Museum and a number of other universities in the city.
Four research offices attached to the Institute specialize in history and cultural relics, literature, tourism and regional economy in the Three Gorges area.
"We will work out a series of papers on the construction of the Three Gorges Dam project and the resettlement projects in the future," said Li Yujie, president of the Institute.
The 193 km long Three Gorges area is one of the country's most famous tourism attractions along the Yangtze River.
