Which month is the best time to visit the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River

You can go there from March to November. There are many tourists visiting the Three Gorges in spring, summer, and autumn. We went there in autumn mainly to see the red maple trees in the Three Gorges.

Last week, my colleagues and I were discussing the best month to go to the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. We are all preparing to go in autumn, and the red leaves on both sides of the Three Gorges in autumn are also a major attraction. We are departing from Chengdu and plan to buy tickets on the Meiya Three Gorges cruise booking website, and then go to Chongqing for two days to stay in the city center. The Chongqing West Station mentioned by the OP seems to be a bit far from the boarding dock, right

We went there on May Day. The scenery of the Three Gorges is good. There are mountains and water. We arrived in Chongqing two days in advance with our children and the elderly. We stayed in the homestays near Monument to the people's Liberation. I think the hotels near the West Railway Station are expensive and far from the dock. You can live in Monument to the people's Liberation, near the dock, and have a look at the night scene of Chongqing when you have time.

If you're afraid of the heat, it's best to choose spring and autumn. When we go during the summer vacation, the water level is not enough to board the ship in Fengjie, which feels a bit troublesome. When you book tickets, you need to ask carefully, otherwise you'll have to take a bus to Fengdu or Fengjie to board the ship.

For accommodation, do not choose to stay near the West Station as it is inconvenient. You can take the subway to the center of Chongqing to find it, which is convenient for you to board the ship. The luxury cruise ships in the Three Gorges are all docked at Chaotianmen Port.
