A beautiful Yangtze River Cruise

My cruise along the Yangtze River was the culmination of a fabulous tour 10 days. After a brief tour of Chongqing, we started our 4 day cruise on the Yangtze River from Chongqing to Wuhan.
The ship we took was the Queen Victoria, a ship with five public decks and no elevator. There was no smoking on board except outside on the back of the ship, on board there was no odor.
The cottage I was very spacious inside, with two single beds. The roomhad great air conditioning. It did not seem very adjustable. I thought it was for most of the time and was pleasant. The room had a TV with HBO and many other language news channel. The television was located at the top of the wall and was visible from the two beds.

The food on board was good. We had the buffet for breakfast and lunch. There were choices of Chinese and western style and lots of fruits and vegetables. I was happy to try something new to eat and enjoy all of the selections.Dinners were served family style at the table. There are about 15 dishes on every table and not leave hungry.

The service aboard the ship was fabulous. Everyone was friendly and greeted her when she passed.

There are also many Chinese-style entertainment for us on board. For example, there was a Tai Chi lessons every morning, or you can try some Chinese medicine treatments such as acupuncture, massage and suction. The ship's personnel in a show brought in the night. Youare not professional actors and actress, but the performance was very interesting.

It was Captain Cocktail Party "Welcome aboard Azzurro Club the first night, very nice. It was champagne and hors d'oeuvres were served. We all toasted for a comfortable ride and had a great time.

Every day we were touring. We left the ship and took the day tour. What most impressed me Fengdu and the Three Gorges Dam have been.

The city was regarded as a ghostMeeting for ghosts for centuries, because two men lived together their names sounded a lot like "King of Hell." At the top of the mountain. Minshan we enjoyed folk art sculptures and paintings of demons, ghosts and the courts to determine whether people go to heaven or hell.

The Three Gorges Dam has been excellent and I found no superlatives could describe. You could see the plant completed, the spillway with the powerful water and mist from the point of observation. I bought asmall, finely carved wooden lion at the beach souvenir shop near the dam for about $ 6.00, which I really like. Be sure to negotiate.

In all, this was a fabulous trip to Yangtze river cruise with Queen Victoria. You can China Odyssey Tours Yangtze Cruise Tours for greater contact.
