Where is the Three Gorges Scenic Area on the Yangtze River by boat

Chongqing is quite hot in summer, and we go out to escape the heat for a few days every year. This year's way to escape the heat, my husband suggested taking a boat trip to the Three Gorges. Unexpectedly, the whole family agreed, and my child seemed extremely excited on the first boat trip. My parents also fulfilled their wish to see the Three Gorges Dam.

I am a local of Chongqing and have been to the Three Gorges many times. I have taken ordinary and luxury cruise ships, and most of the time I choose to board at Chaotianmen Port in Chongqing. I usually go during the off-season when there are not many people going to the Three Gorges, and the tickets are cheap. I usually buy tickets on the official website for booking Three Gorges cruise ships in the United States and Asia, which is particularly cost-effective. There are often missed tickets to pick up.

I am from Beijing. Last time I went on a business trip to Chongqing, I visited the Three Gorges. A local friend helped me book a ticket for a luxury cruise ship that cost over 3000 yuan for four days and three nights. I feel that it is still very cheap, mainly because the ticket includes food, accommodation, and some scenic spot tickets. The food on the cruise ship was also very good, much better than I imagined, and I was not disappointed.

The last time we went was on a boat in Yichang, Hubei. We traveled with a group and took the Three Gorges President cruise ship with tourists from Yichang. On the cruise ship, we enjoyed the scenery of Yichang along the Yangtze River and the beautiful Xiling Gorge. At Gezhouba, we also experienced the wonderful feeling of rising water and boats.

To travel to the Three Gorges in Chongqing, no matter where you board the ship, you need to buy tickets in advance, especially during the peak season of Three Gorges tourism. If you don't book tickets a few days in advance, you won't be able to buy tickets and board the ship at the last opportunity. Last time we went there, we bought tickets at theMeiya Three Gorges Cruise Ticket Reservation Centera week in advance. It was okay to buy tickets from them, and their service is also very good and professional.
