What is the difference between a Three Gorges cruise ship and a cruise ship

@雪鬓：Cruise ships usually have relatively long routes, such as transoceanic cruise ships, with long sailing distances, passing through many places, and longer travel times ranging from half a month to 45 days. The hardware facilities and service attitude on the cruise ship are better. Cruise ships usually sail on rivers, lakes, and waterways. Cruise ships are relatively small, with smaller tonnage, less good service facilities, and less diverse entertainment activities.

@白猪7号：Wow, I always thought they were the same, cruise ships are cruise ships, cruise ships are cruise ships, but there are still some differences. It's never too late to learn.

@1980壶：Let me tell you, I have studied the difference between these two types of ships before. Why is a cruise ship called a cruise ship? Because its original meaning actually refers to a large passenger ship that sails regularly on the sea. The term 'postal service' itself carries the meaning of transportation. In the past, when transportation was not developed, cross-border mail was always transported by large passenger ships, so it was called a cruise ship. Postal services, on the other hand, have since developed transportation and brought continents closer together. The original transoceanic transport ships have basically disappeared from the historical stage and are now mostly used for tourism projects, so large cruise ships on the sea are called cruise ships.

@落幕唯情：I have learned! Give a thumbs up upstairs

@一种安定缓慢的成长：The most commonly heard term for cruise ships is the Three Gorges cruise ship, which uses the term "tour" for sightseeing. I think it refers more to a ship that carries passengers for sightseeing and sightseeing activities.

@加油少年丨Tfboys：After reading the response from upstairs, I think I now have a clearer understanding of the difference between Three Gorges cruise ships and cruise ships. Gaining knowledge, happy.
