March in the spring is bright and beautiful, with the grass growing and the orioles flying, and flowers blooming in profusion. The Wushan Gorge Scenic Area in March is full of life, come and enjoy the flowers and the spring scenery. The Wushan Gorge Scenic Area is located in Longli County, Qiannan Prefecture, built along the Wushan Mountain with a superior geographical location, only 20 kilometers away from the city center of Guiyang, and is easily accessible. Unlike the bustling city, the 8-kilometer-long Wushan Gorge is characterized by overlapping peaks and the sound of flowing water. Wandering between the mountains and rivers, the air is fresh, elegant, and tranquil, like a 'green gem' in the city, making it hard to leave. The peaks of Wushan Gorge are beautiful, and the river water is clear, like a huge landscape painting that vividly displays the magic and craftsmanship of nature, refreshing the mind and delighting the spirit. The continuous cliffs in the gorge, the lush bamboo and trees on both sides, and the waterfalls that appear to hang in the sky, are full of wild interest. The Wushan Gorge Scenic Area is well-equipped with facilities, now featuring a high-altitude glass bridge, rock climbing, a zoo, aerial cableway, a mini train, and scenario-based script experiences, offering a variety of sightseeing and entertainment options to meet the needs of different visitors, making it the best choice for family trips and outings with friends.

Last month I went to Chongqing Wushan for four days and three nights, with a total cost of about 1500 yuan. I found that Wushan is a place with few people and beautiful scenery. The grilled fish is very delicious, suitable for friends who like niche attractions. Here is my itinerary for reference. Day One: Take the high-speed train from Chongqing to Wushan, the fare is 200 yuan, and the journey takes two hours. Stay in the Quanji Hotel in the county town, clean and hygienic, you can see the river view, the price is more than 300 yuan (less than 200 per capita). Visit Wushan Museum in the afternoon, where there are the earliest human fossils in China - Wushan Man fossils, and many treasures of the town hall. In the evening, go to the pier to eat the most authentic Chongqing grilled fish Wushan grilled fish, the taste is super good, even I, a Guangdong person who doesn't like spicy food, can't stop eating, it can be said that it is the best grilled fish I have ever eaten. After dinner, continue to take a boat at the pier to experience the Three Gorges Night Tour, the fare is 98 yuan, although the night view of the mountain city is not as atmospheric as Shanghai and Guangzhou, but combined with mountains and rivers, and clouds and fog, it is very dreamy and wonderful. Day Two: After breakfast at the hotel, go to the pier to take a boat to tour the Little Three Gorges, the fare is 120 yuan (including the ticket for the Little Little Three Gorges), the whole journey is 4 hours. This is one of the earliest 5A scenic spots in China, composed of Longmen Gorge, Ba Fog Gorge, and Dripping Green Gorge. The mountains and valleys along the way are crisscrossed, sometimes with flying waterfalls, sometimes with hanging coffins, and four hours passed unconsciously. Return to the county town for lunch at noon, and then go to the Goddess Scenic Area. The Goddess Sky Road is very spectacular. You can see the Yangtze River winding from the foot to the distance. You can experience the artistic conception of the poem 'A lone sail is far away in the blue sky, only the Yangtze River flows to the end of the sky'. After watching the sunset, stay in a homestay near the watchtower. The conditions are very good, spacious and clean, and dinner and breakfast are also eaten at the homestay. Day Three: Go to the watchtower in the morning to watch the sunrise of the Goddess Peak. If you are lucky, it will be very spectacular. Unfortunately, it was cloudy when we went there, but fortunately there was a sea of clouds, which was like a fairyland. Leave the Goddess Sky Road scenic area and go to the Goddess Peak. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook all the small mountains, which is very spectacular. If it is in mid to late November when the leaves are red, it will be more beautiful. In the afternoon, take a boat to tour the Goddess Creek, watch the Goddess Peak up close, and stay in a homestay by the river. Dinner and breakfast are also eaten at the homestay. Day Four: Watch the sunrise of the Goddess Peak in the morning, and after breakfast, take a boat back to the county town, and then go to Dachang Ancient Town, and return in the afternoon. If you have time, you can go to Xiaozhuang, a village that has been isolated from the world for a long time. When we went to Wushan, the road was closed due to continuous rain and road collapse, so we didn't go. The above is the four-day and three-night guide to Wushan. If you have any questions, you can leave a message. If you want to know more travel guides, welcome to follow Mango Travel Diary.

In the Three Gorges area of the Yangtze River, in addition to the Great Three Gorges, there is also the famous Wushan Mini Three Gorges. In terms of gorge scenery, Wushan Mini Three Gorges is not inferior to the Yangtze River Three Gorges. It is located in the Daning River, a tributary of the Yangtze River, and is composed of Longmen Gorge, Bawu Gorge, and Dicui Gorge. Although there is a 'mini' in the name, its influence is not small at all. It is the first batch of 5A-level tourist attractions in the country and also the earliest 5A scenic spot in Chongqing.

Wushan is a mountain city, just like most people's impression of Chongqing. This time, with the guidance of a local friend, I found a viewpoint of the park on the other side of the county town and the river. The panoramic view of the county town and the Yangtze River Bridge were particularly beautiful! Wushan trip Day 32️⃣ - ▪️Ningjiangdu Park No tickets required🆓 This is the confluence of the Daning River and the Yangtze River, and is a must-see for tourists visiting the Little Three Gorges.

Scenes such as the village entrance, rural residence, boat ferry, river view, and reading are displayed here. The river breeze blows, the greenery is lush, and it is particularly comfortable. - 📸Check-in location 1️⃣ With the county town as the background 2️⃣ Take a photo with the Yangtze River Bridge

【 】 Yutou Bay is located in Dicui Gorge, one of the Small Three Gorges in Wushan County, Chongqing City, in the basin of Daning River, a tributary of the Yangtze River. Dicui Gorge When I walked into Yutou Bay of the Little Three Gorges in Wushan, I felt a sense of familiarity. The mountain top is like a huge fish head, swimming out of the magnificent picture. Red-leafed wild chrysanthemums are scattered on the edge of the cliff nearby. The water of the Daning River below the cliff is green, and there are many cruise ships. Wherever the boats pass, long white swallowtails are left on the green river surface. Yutou Bay on ordinary days should be more beautiful than what I saw. There is no sunshine today, and the dark yellow and mottled cliffs lack a touch of golden color. The red leaves on the cliff are shrouded in the gray tones of dusk. There are no clouds today, and there is less haziness. However, I have already sketched the most beautiful picture in my mind. Yutou Bay in spring, summer, autumn and winter must have its own characteristics. Wushan is not only the red leaf season, but also the Wushan of my dreams in all four seasons. Wushan Little Three Gorges 🍁To go to Yutou Bay, you can enter from Anjing Village, climb the mountain to the viewing platform, look at the speedboat coming back from Wushan County, blow the refreshing mountain breeze, see the red leaves all over the mountain, enjoy the Daning River, and visit the Daji Ancient Town.

When the mountains are full of red leaves - Wushan Three Gorges Red Leaves Free Travel Guide. The movie 'When the Mountains are Full of Red Leaves' once told us 'The mountains are full of red leaves like rosy clouds, and the red leaves reflect the Three Gorges every year.' Tang Dynasty poet Yuan Zhen also didn't deceive us 'It's hard to be water once you've been to the sea, except for Wushan, it's not a cloud.' The Three Gorges red leaves have been very famous since ancient times. Because the older generation has grown old, the Three Gorges red leaves have not been well promoted in the era of self-media. And the best place to view the Three Gorges red leaves is on both sides of the Wuxia in Wushan. The north bank is mainly based on Wenfeng Guan, mainly Huang Lu, with a super large scale and exaggerated red. The south bank is mainly based on the Goddess Scenic Area, mainly colorful forests and fiery red Huang Lu intertwined. Tour suggestions: D1, Wushan high-speed rail to Wenfeng Guan, directly from the high-speed rail station to Wenfeng Guan Visitor Center, just over ten kilometers. The ticket is 40 yuan, and the high-speed rail ticket can be half price. The area near the Zhen Shui Tower is a classic check-in location, with red leaves all over the mountain, like a fiery red carpet laid on the entire mountain. After checking in, keep climbing up to Wenfeng Guan, turn right and cross the road and then go up to the mountain top trail. Overlooking Wuxia, the beauty and shock of Wuxia are indescribable. Then return to the visitor center, take the scenic area shuttle bus back to the city for check-in. In the evening, you can eat Wushan grilled fish, paper-wrapped fish, the taste is absolutely right, the average consumption is 30-50.

The sightseeing car can stop at several important check-in points. After visiting the Goddess Sky Road, you arrive at the Huangyan Cableway, take the downhill cableway to check in at the Red Leaf Slope. The red leaves of the Red Leaf Slope mainly play a foreground role. On the more than one kilometer plank road, you take photos with red leaves as the foreground. I dare say you have never encountered such a beautiful foreground. It's so beautiful, it's so red. After visiting the Red Leaf Slope, take the cableway uphill, then take the scenic area electric sightseeing car back to Liuping, and then take the bus back to the city. tips1: The Goddess Scenic Area on the south bank of Wuxia mainly plays colorful forests, among which the Red Leaf Slope mainly plays Huang Lu red leaves. And the Wenfeng Guan Scenic Area on the north bank mainly plays Huang Lu red leaves. Whether on the north or south bank, the view of the Three Gorges is at the ceiling level. tips2: There is no need to book a hotel in advance! There is no need to book a hotel in advance! There is no need to book a hotel in advance! Say it three times for important things. Because Wushan city is very close to the scenic area, there are many accommodation resources, and it is cheaper to go directly to the hotel than to book online, and there are more choices. After all, there is a platform draw for online booking, and this part of the cost is naturally transferred to the passengers. A passable hotel standard room can be obtained for about 150. tips3: It's very cold in the morning, Wenfeng Guan is 700-1000 meters above sea level, and the Goddess Sky Road is about 1000 meters above sea level. Please be sure to bring an extra piece of clothing, just in case. tips4: The red leaves are now at their best! Don't believe in the wait-and-see party, saying that the best viewing period for red leaves is not until mid-December. Maybe there are still some in Wenfeng Guan in mid-December, but the Goddess Scenic Area has already fallen off. Note: p1-p7 Wenfeng Guan Scenic Area. p8-p11, Goddess Scenic Area Red Leaf Slope. p12-p18, Goddess Scenic Area Goddess Sky Road

In late autumn, the earth gradually turns into autumn colors. Since November, the rolling mountains on both sides of Wu Gorge in Chongqing have gradually shed their green coats and put on colorful outfits, and the red leaves have gradually turned red. The cotinus coggygria, Chinese tallow tree, lacquer tree, maple tree and other trees on the land of Bayu turn the entire city into a colorful picture. More than 400 years ago, Ming Dynasty poet Lu Qian once went rafting in Wu Gorge. He wrote the lines "The clouds are white over the flying gorge, and the shadows of the trees are red over the river", which describes the unique beauty of the red leaves in the Three Gorges. Today, the autumn leaves add a unique landscape to the city, colorful and brilliant like clouds. Wushan in Chongqing has a unique topography and landforms. The area above 1,100 meters above sea level is surrounded by high mountains and canyons. Due to the unique mountain climate, the red leaves begin to turn red from mid-October every year, and the viewing period lasts for about 3 months. There are nearly 200 varieties such as Cotinus coggygria, Tung oilseed oil tree, and Acer rubrum, with a total area of ​​more than 1.2 million mu, of which 200,000 mu are concentrated in areas for viewing. At present, the red leaves in areas above 1,000 meters above sea level have gradually turned red, which is the best time to appreciate the red leaves. The red leaves all over the mountains and fields are as red as fire, blooming in groups, covering the canyons and gullies, as if they are a burning flame. The beautiful red leaves in Wushan are breathtaking and intoxicating. In mid-November, the red leaves make the Lanying Grand Canyon even more charming and beautiful. The red decorations spread across the mountains, making you feel relaxed and happy, and you can only respond to the enthusiasm of the red color all over the mountains with the sound of your heartbeat. When you climb to a high place and look into the distance, you will see towering mountains shrouded in mist, revealing a hint of dark red, as if it is a solemn and elegant Chinese painting for people to appreciate. On the other side of the stream, the towering cliffs are looming in the mist, while the red leaves and characteristic buildings nearby complement each other, making people feel like they are in a painting. You can also take a boat tour of the Little Three Gorges, admire the red maples, and experience a different kind of customs. The "hundred-mile red carpet" on Wu Gorge has been rolled out, come and check in and leave behind beautiful memories!

"Once upon a time, all the seas were water, except for Wushan, it was not clouds." I used to have only one poem about the concept of Wushan. When I actually came to this Three Gorges town that I had longed for for a long time, I finally understood why the ancients were so fascinated by Wushan. ⛰️Wushan is like a city that came out of an ink painting. The mountains and rivers are beautiful and colorful. This season, 🍂 is a good time to see the red leaves of the Three Gorges. I really regret coming this year. Wushan’s stamina is really great‼ ️ 😆 We have compiled some favorite scenic spots. If you are also planning to see the magnificent Three Gorges, you might as well collect them and check in slowly! - 1️⃣Goddess Heavenly Road The first stop in Wushan is usually chosen here. This is the best place to view the Wu Gorge. The Yangtze River meanders away among the cliffs, and the mist shrouds the mountains and rivers, like a picture of nature. It turns out that ancient ink paintings were not of the artistic conception school, but of the realism school! You can also take a cable car to visit the Heart of the Goddess at a close distance. Sitting on it is very impressive! . 2️⃣Three Gorges Light & Wushan Night View After visiting Wushan during the day, you can take a boat trip to Wu Gorge at night to experience the unique charm of this city up close. Take a boat ride and watch the lights of thousands of families complement each other with the rolling mountains, showing everyone the beauty of Wushan. . 3️⃣Little Three Gorges and Little Three Gorges Boating on the Wushan Small Three Gorges and Small Three Gorges is also a must-do. Along the winding river, at the foot of the mountain, listening to the sounds of apes on both sides and looking at the traces left by the ancients, you can immerse yourself in the beautiful scenery of the Three Gorges. . 4️⃣Zhuzhi Village The antique buildings stretching for several kilometers along the river are a great place to watch the sunset, and there are also colorful light shows at night! . 5️⃣Wushan Museum This is a good place to learn about the culture and history of Wushan. It also displays a large number of cultural relics from the Three Gorges area. The location of the museum is also very good. It is next to the Goddess Ladder, facing the Yangtze River and the entrance of Wu Gorge. It is very good to take photos and check in. - 6️⃣Food A trip to Wushan is complete without delicious food! Be sure to try the Wushan grilled fish and jade jelly, they are delicious in any restaurant!

If you were born in an isolated mountain area, would you succumb to your fate or give it a try? . This deep in Daba Mountain A peaceful, secluded village In those poor times, a road to heaven was dug out from the cliffs It also gave us the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful scenery. . I was originally interested in the scenery of this kind of place with a little "educational significance" I don't have any hope. I didn't expect the unexpected beauty here . It's not amazing, but the more you taste it, the more delicious it is. It is completely understandable why the first generation of villagers chose to settle down and build their homes here. . The mist after the rain is so artistic Very cozy and relaxing. It's really great to stay for two days on the weekend The restaurants in the village are also delicious.

Wushan County didn't appear in many reviews or tourist blogs, but it should!!! It's easy to get to on the fast train from Chongqing and there are taxi's available at the station and in the town's. First up we went on the tourist boat through the three gorges, it took just under 2 hours and the views were amazing. (I'd recommend a few cold bottles of water for the boat). The boat then arrives at Dachang ancient town, where you can get tasty local treats and relax by the water. The tourist boat returns quite quickly (15/20 mins). We managed to take the locals boat back to Wushan as we wanted to explore a bit longer. Once back in Wushan town, there are so many choices, you can head to the mountain side temples, pagodas at the top of the peaks or grab a barrel of Pina colada, at what appeared to be the only non-ktv bar around. We opted for the mountain top pagoda for sunset and a barrel of coconut cocktail 🍹

I'd love to live here, falling asleep to the river every night. I've been planning this trip for a long time, with Wushan always on my collection list of places to visit around Chongqing. Finally, I made it to Wushan to enjoy its mountains and waters. After looking at many accommodations, I decided to choose one with a river view. My friend and I chose the Yishui Lou Hotel, located in Zhuzhi Village in Wushan. It's nestled against layered green mountains and faces the mighty Yangtze River. When we arrived at Wushan Station by high-speed rail, the hotel had already sent someone to pick us up - so thoughtful! Entering our room, a huge floor-to-ceiling window revealed the Wushan county town across the river and the deep blue-green waters. I knew we had made the right choice. This was exactly the room we wanted. ✅ Infinity Pool: Swim where water meets sky, dance with cloud reflections, and capture stunning photos effortlessly. ✅ Children's Playground: Equipped with play facilities to give kids their own entertainment space. ✅ Private Courtyard: A garden full of flowers and plants, a perfect relaxation space to enjoy a cup of tea while listening to the river. The excellent environment kicked off our vacation-style journey. 🗺️ Nearby Attractions: ❤️ Wushan Yangtze River Bridge: A 10-minute walk away, experience the majesty of "a bridge connecting north and south," with picturesque views at sunrise and sunset. ❤️ Visit the county's highest point and walk down its longest staircase. Taste various snacks along the way. Walk to Binjiang Road to check in at "I'm in Wushan," then find a restaurant to try paper-wrapped fish. Experience the vibrant atmosphere of the dock culture. ❤️ Return to Zhuzhi Village in the evening to photograph the layered night view of the county town across the river. ❤️ Goddess Scenic Area: Take a sightseeing car to experience the winding Goddess Sky Road, visit the Heart of the Goddess scenic spot. Explore the Goddess Ladder and hike along Goddess Stream. ❤️ Wushan Dragon Ridge: Hike through pristine canyons, explore karst landforms, and occasionally encounter the magical fairyland of rolling sea clouds. 🌟 Staying here creates a sense of ceremony for your vacation, with mountains as neighbors and the river as a companion. It elevates your journey from mere "accommodation" to an "immersive stay." Falling asleep to the sound of the river at night and waking up to the first ray of sunlight and birdsong in the morning - this is the luxurious enjoyment gifted by the Three Gorges. 📍 Address: Zhuzhi Village, Wushan County, Chongqing

#cruiseholiday Okay, I just sailed down China’s mighty Yangtze River, and let me tell you—this ain’t your grandma’s cruise. Think misty gorges straight out of a kung fu movie, villages clinging to cliffs, and zero signal (bliss). First Impressions: “Is This Avatar Land?” Waking up to emerald water snaking through foggy cliffs, with the smell of river damp and spicy stir-fry from the kitchen. Our ship? A floating grandma’s house—wood-paneled, squeaky floors, and a crew who laughed at my Mandarin. The “OMG” Moment 🤯 The Three Gorges Dam toilet stop. Yes, you read that right. The ship’s restroom had a floor-to-ceiling window facing the biggest dam on Earth. Most surreal pee of my life. (Pro tip: Go at sunset.) Hidden Gem: Goddess Stream 🧚♀️ A tiny tributary where we swapped our cruise ship for a wooden sampan. Drifting past waterfalls and hanging coffins (!!) while local singers’ echoes bounced off limestone walls—magical. Foodie Must: Chongqing Hot Pot 🌶️ Pre-cruise, I inhaled this face-melting, numb-your-lips broth at a dockside joint. Ingredients included: Mystery river fish (delicious) Something gelatinous (asked no questions) 10+ chili varieties (RIP my stomach) Blitz Itinerary ⏳ ⏰ Day 1: Fly to Chongqing (eat hot pot + see pandas at the zoo) ⏰ Day 2: Board ship, sail through Qutang Gorge (dramatic cliff selfies) ⏰ Day 3: Shibaozhai Pagoda (12-story climb for temple snacks) ⏰ Day 4: Goddess Stream detour + dam toilet selfies Pro Tips 💡 ✔️ Pack wet wipes—some stops are rustic ✔️ Learn “wèi suǒ zài nǎ?” (Where’s the toilet?) Critical. ✔️ Book a balcony cabin—waking up to cliff views = priceless Final Thought: This trip was half nature documentary, half cultural fever dream. Left with zero phone service, 100+ cliff photos, and a new love for spicy river food. Who’s ready to sail China’s dragon river? Drop your Qs below! 👇 #YangtzeOrBust

Hey friends, today I want to share an unforgettable experience I had recently in Wushan, Chongqing. This trip turned out to be an unexpected delight! 🌟 Speaking of Chongqing, it's truly a mountain city with countless delicious foods and stories in every corner. However, this time the focus wasn't on hot pot or noodles, but on the "Night Stay in Wushan" hotel located in Ningjiang Ferry Park, one of Wushan's eight ancient scenic spots. 🏞️ 🏡 Perfect Blend of Tradition and Modernity 🏠 As soon as you step into Night Stay in Wushan, you know it's special. The hotel's design preserves traditional Chinese aesthetics while cleverly incorporating modern smart elements. For example, each room is equipped with a smart home system, allowing you to enjoy both classical ambiance and technological convenience. Moreover, every piece of furniture is from high-end brands, making you feel like you're living in a carefully curated work of art. 🌈 Beautiful Scenery Outside Your Window 🌄 Standing by the window, you can see the Yangtze River flowing gently, with the Goddess Peak faintly visible in the distance. Especially at night, when the lights come on, the entire river surface seems to be covered with a golden veil, breathtakingly beautiful. This scenery doesn't require any special angles – any casual photo will become the highlight of your social media. 🍹 Leisure Time Begins with a Cup of Coffee ☕️ The hotel's café and bar are perfect places to relax. Order a cup of aromatic coffee or a cocktail, sit on the terrace, watch the boats coming and going on the river, feel the breeze on your face, and time seems to slow down. These moments are best spent with family and friends, chatting about recent events and sharing happiness. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Time, Warm and Fun 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 As a father of two children, I particularly noticed the hotel's family facilities. Children can enjoy a safe and comfortable environment here and participate in various enriching activities such as outdoor adventures and crafts, which are both fun and educational. The game room specially designed for kids became their favorite place. This trip to Wushan was not just an exploration of natural beauty but also a spiritual cleansing. Night Stay in Wushan is not just a hotel but more like a haven where you can temporarily forget the hustle and bustle of life and quietly enjoy its beauty. If you also want to experience this, come and stay for a few days. I believe you'll leave with wonderful memories just like I did.

### **1. Sailing Direction and Duration** - **Downstream (Following the Current)** **Route**: Chongqing → Yichang (following the Yangtze River flow) **Duration**: Typically 3 nights/4 days (about 72 hours) **Features**: Faster sailing speed, shorter duration, suitable for travelers with limited time. Daytime viewing of major attractions like Qutang Gorge and Wu Gorge. - **Upstream (Against the Current)** **Route**: Yichang → Chongqing (against the river flow) **Duration**: Typically 4 nights/5 days (about 96 hours) **Features**: Slower sailing speed, more relaxed itinerary, ideal for those who prefer slow travel and in-depth experiences. The ship is more stable when sailing against the current, reducing the feeling of turbulence. --- ### **2. Differences in Attraction Coverage** - **Downstream Advantages**: - Experience the magnificent "Kuimen, the most majestic pass under heaven" (entrance to Qutang Gorge). - Some cruises arrange daytime passage through Wu Gorge, with better lighting for photography. - **Upstream Advantages**: - Potentially longer stops at attractions (such as Fengdu Ghost City, Shibaozhai). - Some travelers believe the viewing angles are better when sailing upstream (e.g., in the Xiling Gorge section). **Note**: Regardless of direction, mainstream cruises cover the same core attractions (Three Gorges Dam, Lesser Three Gorges, Goddess Stream, etc.), just in different order. --- ### **3. Comfort and Price** - **Comfort**: - Upstream cruises are slower with less noise and vibration, suitable for light sleepers. - Downstream saves time but may feel slightly more rushed. - **Price**: - Little price difference between upstream and downstream, though upstream may be slightly cheaper during off-season (due to lower demand). - On the same cruise ship, cabin prices mainly depend on deck level and amenities. --- ### **4. How to Choose?** - **Choose Downstream (Chongqing → Yichang) if**: ✓ You want to save time while experiencing the essence of the Three Gorges. ✓ You want to enjoy the exhilarating feeling of "sailing swiftly past countless mountains." ✓ Transportation from Chongqing is more convenient (e.g., direct flights to Chongqing). - **Choose Upstream (Yichang → Chongqing) if**: ✓ You prefer a more leisurely pace, suitable for seniors or families with young children. ✓ You want to reduce the risk of seasickness (upstream is more stable). ✓ You plan to depart from Yichang (e.g., for subsequent travel to Wuhan/Shanghai). --- ### **5. Additional Tips** - **Seasonal Factors**: - Peak season (April-October) offers more frequent sailings in both directions; during the dry season (December-March), some routes may be adjusted. - **Cruise Selection**: - Prioritize the vessel (such as Century series, Yangtze No. 3), which offer better facilities and services. - Check specific itineraries, as some premium cruises may have different attraction arrangements for upstream and downstream journeys. --- **Summary**: Both upstream and downstream cruises have their merits, with the main differences being time and pace. If you have ample time and value experience, choose upstream; if you seek efficiency or prefer sailing with the current, choose downstream. Consider your departure point, vacation length, and personal preferences when deciding. Yichang Passenger Port

This time I took the Century Triumphal Cruise, Walking on water, From Yichang to Chongqing, 5 days and 4 nights, See the beautiful scenery of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River in one go. P1, P2: Board the ship at Maoping Port. The macaron green cable car at the dock, the red pontoon and the mountains behind it form a fairy-tale picture. P3, P4: Three Gorges Dam. A century-long project, very spectacular. Don’t worry if the weather is bad, the photos will look like ink paintings. P5: Puppy Hill. Located in the Xiling Gorge section, the currently very popular super cute "🐶" is opposite the Jiuwanxi Bridge in Zigui. The host will introduce it specifically. P6, P7: Goddess Creek. It is a very small tourist attraction and can only be easily reached by taking the Three Gorges cruise. Both sides of the Taiwan Strait are really beautiful, the only drawback is that the local guide was selling us the entire way back. P8: Wu Gorge. Except for the Wushan Mountain which is not covered with clouds, Wu Gorge is my favorite among the Three Gorges. P9: Qutang Gorge. The 10-yuan RMB background of Kuimen is a must-see! P10: The first gate of Baidi City. Don’t go in yet. Climb a little to the left and take pictures through the circular doorway, which will allow you to avoid a lot of people. P11: After passing through the door of P10, you can buy ice cream and take a photo at this signature gate. P12, P13: The pavilion on the way down the mountain from Baidi City and the stone wall by the river are both great spots for taking photos with Kuimen. P14, P15: Before returning to the pier, don’t miss Yidoumen. By observing passers-by and slowing down the shutter speed, you can take photos that give a sense of time travel. Walk down from the doorway to the pier and it's a great position to take pictures through the doorway. P16: Fengdu Ghost Town. This trip is like walking through the gates of hell, and life will be smooth sailing from now on. P17, P18: The floating bridge in front of Fengdu Wharf is also a good place to take photos with the boat. P19: The night view of Fuling District, check in the city of Jiangcheng with lights just coming on. P20: Arriving at Chongqing Chaotianmen Wharf, this angle of the Raffles can only be photographed on the boat. The above are basically the attractions that the Three Gorges cruise will visit in 5 days and 4 nights. If you go downstream from Chongqing to Yichang, it will take one less day. The attractions and itineraries are not much different. There is no boat from Yichang to Chongqing on the first night. So there was that extra day. Regarding the delicious food and fun on the ship, See another note. #3月好去地方2025 #Yangtze River #Three Gorges #cruise #rivership #trip #photooftheday

Muye Wushan Homestay is located on the edge of Yingzui Cliff in Group 12, Liuping Village, Jianping Township, Wushan, Chongqing. It sits on a cliff 800m above sea level, backed by verdant mountains and facing the magnificent Wuxia Gorge, like a sky garden embedded in the clouds. It is only a 2-hour high-speed train ride from the main city of Chongqing. After exiting the station, a private car will seamlessly transfer you through the steep mountain roads to this secluded paradise. It took three years of polishing to complete the B&B. The owner, Lao Liu, combined the grandeur of Machu Picchu in the 15th century with the local culture of Wushan. He used rough stones and logs to construct the building's framework, preserving the memory of the countryside while creating a wild and luxurious aesthetic that "coexists with the cliff". The bedding is made of high-count cotton to help you fall into a cloud-like dream. The only "shortcoming"? The designer deliberately weakened the gorgeousness of the interior, just to let you rush out the door to embrace the magnificence of the world. The B&B's "Prunus salicina Restaurant" is inspired by Wushan's specialty, Prunus salicina, and cooks seasonal ingredients from the Three Gorges Reservoir area into poetic dishes. The nine-grid breakfast includes local snacks such as Wushan grilled fish porridge and spicy steamed buns. Dinner requires advance booking. It is recommended to try stir-fried cured meat with alpine wild vegetables and river fresh tofu casserole, served with homemade fruit wine. Every bite is full of Bayu flavors. In the afternoon, you can move to the "Cloud Sea Bar", order a hand-drip coffee and Wushan Prunus salicina cake, lean against the window and look at the misty Goddess Peak, and enjoy the gift of slow time. Experience healing from the clouds to the secret realm. Sunrise chasing: wait for the first ray of sunlight to penetrate the Goddess Peak on the cloud viewing platform. Cliff Yoga: stretch your body and mind facing the canyon, and breathe in negative oxygen ions. Night tour of Goddess Stream: take a small boat deep into the secret realm, where the Milky Way dances with the lights. Intangible cultural heritage handcrafts: experience Wushan embroidery or bamboo weaving and bring the Three Gorges culture home. Starry sky theater: listen to villagers tell Wushan myths by the bonfire, as if traveling through thousands of years. "As far as the eye can see, it is the end of the world." Here, time is blown away by the wind of Wuxia, leaving only the sea of clouds, starlight, and inner peace. If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, why not hide in this cliffside utopia, look at the goddess, and wait for a sunset that is in no hurry.

Continued from the previous chapter. In order to wake up and admire the beauty of Kuimen, I checked in to Kuimen Hotel P2 last night. The Fengbao Fish at Sanheyuan Restaurant across from the hotel was quite interesting. This trip is a rare slow pace. In the morning, I leisurely strolled around Kuizhou Museum and Kuizhou Ancient City. The scenery of the Yangtze River is beautiful from any location P3. After lunch, I took a taxi to Xiaohongchuan Passenger Terminal. [Departure Time] Try to go early, there are no fixed seats. If you are worried about changes in time or boarding location, you can search for the ☎ number posted by other bloggers to find out in advance. [Scenery along the way] P4-P7 The Xiaohongchuan passes through Fengjie County, and the mountains on both sides of the Yangtze River gradually come into view. The boat sails into Qutang Gorge, and the steep cliffs on both sides soar into the clouds, with the river rushing through the canyon. Passing through Kuimen, you can see the pattern on the back of the ten-yuan banknote. The Xiaohongchuan stops at multiple stops along the way. Some local villagers carry bamboo baskets with fruits and vegetables, creating a strong atmosphere of life. [First Arrival in Wushan] After nearly 4 hours of sailing, the Xiaohongchuan finally arrived at Wushan Ancient City Wharf. Wushan County is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The Wushan Yangtze River Bridge in the distance spans the river, connecting the cities on both sides. Even without any travel tips, you will be attracted by Shennv Avenue P8, because one glance makes you feel a little sore. After getting off the boat, there were many motorcycle taxi drivers shouting at the dock P9. Whether it was two people traveling together or even travelers with suitcases, the drivers had ways to take them away, but they turned a blind eye to me and my husband. Don't ask why, it's impolite 🙄. [Wushan Night View] I wanted to go to the opposite side of the main urban area to see the night view of Wushan, so I took a taxi and told the driver my intention. The car drove along Ningjiang Avenue. As the perspective of the main urban area gradually straightened, I inadvertently turned my head to look out the car window. In an instant, the night view of Wushan crashed into my sight without warning. The buildings of varying heights outlined the colorful outline of the entire city under the illumination of the lights. The mountains in the distance were looming in the night, blending with the city lights. The beauty between movement and stillness was unforgettable. [18 Years Ago] During the summer vacation of 2007, my mother and I completed a river, sea, land, and air trip that spanned 4 provinces and 6 cities. One section was a riverboat from Yichang to Fengjie. At that time, there were no detailed travel tips. I bought a ticket when I saw one at the ticket office. Later, when I saw other ships on the river, I realized the difference between cruise ships and passenger ships. I remember my mother wondering why this third-class cabin was so much cheaper than the Bohai Ferry. These two tickets became the key to unlocking an unknown journey. When the cockroach family appeared collectively, this journey was destined to be unforgettable forever. Their agile figures moving between the table and the bed became a lingering childhood shadow on that sultry summer night, and I also experienced my first all-nighter in life. The friendly captain let me sit on the bench in front of the cockpit to watch the Three Gorges ship lock. I went back to my third-class cabin once in the middle, and the cockroaches were still busy, so I went to the stern to greet the dawn. Looking at the high mountains on both sides of the river with the morning mist still lingering, the river breeze gently caressed my face. I was the only audience in this visual feast starring the mountains and rivers, and I was also the lucky traveler chosen by the misty gorges.
