If I can recall correctly, China also built the largest shopping mall in the city of Chengdu in that province.

Construction of world's tallest dam begins in Sichuan

July 13 marked the commencement of construction work on the Shuangjiangkou Dam in Sichuan's Dadu River. At 314 meters tall (1,030-ft), the Shuangjiangkou Dam will take over to become the world's tallest dam, surpassing the 305-meter tall Jinping-1, also located in Sichuan.
Over the past couple of years, China has been massively expanding its hydropower electricity generating capacity in an effort to reduce carbon emission while obtaining 20 percent of power from non-fossil sources by 2030.
