Hello everyone, I am Xiao Pan going on a trip. I heard that only by looking back at the past life 100 times can you get a fan in this life.

Everyone is welcome to leave any questions about travel you want to know here at any time!

The Yangtze Three Gorges Tourism is one of the top 10 tourist attractions that China has launched to tourists from all over the world. Many young people are not very interested in taking a boat trip to the Three Gorges. They think it is too slow. However, the Three Gorges cruise is the most suitable way of travel for middle-aged and elderly people. Because it is slow but leisurely and comfortable, tourists can take their time. Living on the boat, you can enjoy the unfettered view of the canyon scenery on both sides of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River.

Launching: going down the river from Chongqing, the end point is Yichang, the time is 4 days and 3 nights;

I personally recommend that if you have plenty of time, you can choose to go up. water.
