Shanghai lies on the mouth of Yangtze River, which is the third longest river in the world. The first and second longest rivers are Nile and Amazon. Taking a river cruise in Shanghai Tours enjoys not only the breath-taking sceneries, but also the Expo Site. Besides, Yangtze River is one of the cradles of Chinese culture. I’m sure that it will make you a great impression which is difficult to erase. So why not go and take Shanghai Flights right now?
Yangtze River rising in the Qomolangma and flowing about 6300 km enters Pacific Ocean. It is the longest and largest river in China. When it rushed out the high mountain ridge, it has formed a marvelous and unparallel grand canyon — Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. It consists of Qutang Gorge, Wu Gorge and Xiling Gorge, which is the most beautiful scenery in the Yangtze River. Just like a decorated corridor.
The wet season of Three Gorge was the busy season for travelling. You also can appreciate the Little Three Gorge and Little Little Three Gorge, which was available in the wet season only. However, after the Three Gorges Dam finished, now you can travel at anytime. Instead some spots that located in the low position are gone. What a pity. Well I think the best season is still spring and fall. Summer is a little bit hot and winter is a little bit clammy.
The best way to take river tours is cruise ship. You can feast your eyes on all the river views. You don’t have to change the hotels everyday, actually may enjoy the totally different landscapes out of windows. Different classes and shipping spaces have different facilities. Some luxurious cruise ships, like waterborne deluxe hotels, offer everything. Everything on land you can imagine is available on the luxurious cruise ship. Of course, the price is not low. But I think they are based on reasonable profit, not on wild speculation. FYI, the counter current is a little bit more expensive than the fair current. And it also takes more time.
Certainly you can eat on the ships. Especially the five star cruise ships offer lots of Chinese cuisine. But if you want to try some local food, you need to disembark and hang around in the village. They are famous about fish and prawn. Some dishes also have their own story. The story of Zhangfei’s Fish for a thousand years is still popular. In words, the local citizens are good at spicy and hot food. But they won’t let all the foods spicy and hot. It’s just the point.
The tourist souvenir in Yangtze River is amazing. There are lots of tourist souvenirtourist souvenir tourist souvenir exquisite workmanships. Such as the handicraft, the china, the pottery and the four stationery treasures of the Chinese study. These things are so Chinese. If you are a big fan of Chinese culture, you won’t miss it. Besides, the orange and the white spirit are also impressive. You should have a try. The texture of stone of Three Gorges is unique, like a picture or a Chinese character. Collect one and keep it.
River tour is a new thing in China. Although China has a great many rivers, people prefer travel on land. Actually, you can appreciate some brand new views on ship. It’s not that crowded. Some famous spots in China are overloaded. Sometimes you don’t even know you are seeing the views or tourists. But taking a trip by ship will never have that kind of problem. Just like I mentioned, if you want the Yangtze River cruise, both Shanghai Flights and Chengdu Flights are perfect choices.
