The turbines room was a setup just for tourists, it isn't a current function of the dam. Kind of misleading.

Well worth the time! Glad we went.
Comfortable, entertaining, and informative. Our guide was funny, and even the 45 minute bus ride to the dam from our hotel was pleasant. The views were beautiful, and the tour of the plant was interesting, but didn’t take up too much time.
