The Yangtze River ( 181 )

Cruising on the longest river in China and also the third longest one in the world is a marvelous experience. The trip usually starts from Chongqing and ends at Wuhan. No matter if you take the upstream tour (Chongqing to Wuhan) or the downstream one (Wuhan to Chongqing), the scenery is a combination of natural beauty and historic relics.
