Chongqing Three Gorges Shennongjia Tourism Guide

You can drive from Chongqing to Shennongjia in the Three Gorges, directly to Dajiu Lake, and then tour the entire Shennongjia and head north. We drove there from Yichang before, and it took us two to three hours to get there. Along the way, we also went to see the Three Gorges Dam.

You can take a Three Gorges cruise in Chongqing to visit the scenic spot of Shennongjia, which is included in the cruise itinerary and is free of charge. You can consult the Meiya Three Gorges Cruise ticket booking official website for more information. Whether you are traveling with a group or on your own, taking a cruise is more worry free because the itinerary is arranged on board.

Let me tell you about our self driving tour guide to Shennongjia in the Three Gorges of Chongqing last year. Before our trip, we made a guide. Our group of four drove from the urban area of Chongqing to Dajiuhu, booked a hotel for one night, and went to visit the scenic spots the next day. You can buy tickets online. When we go to Dajiuhu, we must pay attention to the weather. When we went there, we encountered rain and the scenic area looked very dark. After playing for a whole morning and afternoon, we went to Shennongding, which tests our physical strength. On the third day, I went to Shennong Temple, and on the last day, I returned to Chongqing. The general route is just like this, written in a rather messy way, and we played for a total of four days.

You can go to Shennongjia with a group in Chongqing. If you don't like to go with a group, you can also go to theMeiya Three Gorges Cruise Ticket BookingOfficial Website to buy your own tickets. Not only can you explore Shennongjia, but you can also experience the fun of boat tours in the Three Gorges without having to make a plan in advance. The itinerary and attractions are arranged on the cruise, including food and accommodation, which I think is too convenient for lazy people.
