A Detailed Guide to a 5-Day, 4-Night Cruise Through the Three Gorges

"Where the monkeys' shrieks echo unceasingly, the light boat has already passed through countless layers of mountains." After reading "The Long Journey of Chang'an", go to the Three Gorges to experience the world of the poets! The stunning beauty of the Three Gorges is heart-stirring. Along the way, you can absorb the wisdom of the ancients, enjoy delicious food, feel the cultural sentiments, and have fun! Highly recommended to everyone! Here's a lazy way to play while lying down, where you can eat well, sleep well, and not worry about anything, and still visit all the scenic spots—take a cruise. The Century Paragon series of cruises we chose really overturned my perception of domestic cruises. It's so luxurious! I heard it cost over 300 million to build. Once on board, food and drinks are all-inclusive. It's like moving a five-star hotel. We chose the 5-day, 4-night route from Yichang to Chongqing. Detailed Itinerary Guide Century Paragon Yichang to Chongqing Five-Day Tour Reference Route: D1 Yichang - Maoping Pier boarding A grand captain's welcome party, officially kicks off the 'Poetic Three Gorges' journey D2 Three Gorges Tribe, Three Gorges Dam, Ship Lift (closed for annual maintenance, unfortunately not experienced) After breakfast, we arrived at the Three Gorges Dam. You can choose to visit the national heavy equipment Three Gorges Dam (not including scenic area electric car 10 yuan/person), and experience the magnificent Three Gorges Ship Lift, touring the spectacular Three Gorges Dam project. D3 Goddess Stream, Baidi City Goddess Stream Wu Gorge's Goddess Stream "A light boat, mountains green and waters blue; lush surroundings, a sudden fairyland." You can also take a small boat to tour the beautiful Goddess Stream, which is a small stream between Qing Shi Town and Fei Feng Peak. The local residents still maintain a simple way of life. Qutang Gorge From here begins the most beautiful part of the entire journey, be sure to go up on deck to view the scenery. The cruise ship passes through Wu Gorge, past the Goddess Peak, with continuous green mountains on both sides, peaks like a screen. As the ship sails through the gorge, sometimes the mountains block the way, seeming to leave no path; suddenly the peaks turn, the clouds part, and there's another sky, like a winding and twisting gallery, giving a sense of a fairyland. When night falls, there's also a wonderful staff performance on the cruise ship, not to be missed. D4 Fengdu Ghost City, Fengjie Baidi City Visit the 'Poetry City' Baidi City, where Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, the paragons of loyalty through the ages, made their final arrangements for the care of their children, and also check in at the location of the 10 yuan note background - Kui Gate. Fengdu Ghost City "Morning breeze gently brushes over thousands of mountains, climb high to embrace the moon and stars", a 4A national tourist area~ There is also a large-scale landscape live performance 'The Romance of the Three Kingdoms' but it requires an additional fee. (If you go to experience and take photos of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms performance and Fengdu Ghost City, please add the corresponding pictures.) D5 Disembark in Chongqing Reasons to Recommend a Cruise Through the Three Gorges √ Convenient with good service, once on board, you are free from various troubles on the road, with free luggage handling, childcare, etc. √ Morning tea, coffee, all-day snacks, self-service drinks, rich buffet meals, and even late-night snacks. √ The ship is very new, with a luxurious and high-tech interior. There are 10 types of rooms to choose from, super suitable for bringing babies to play
