When is the best time to visit the Three Gorges Dam

It's best to go to the Three Gorges Dam from Chongqing in spring and autumn. The weather is cool, but it's too hot to take your family there in summer. Along the way, you also need to do some heatstroke prevention and sun protection work, which can be quite troublesome.

Going to the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River for tourism in spring and summer is the best. The scenery that the Three Gorges brings to tourists is different in each season. In the beginning of spring, the Three Gorges will also hold some large-scale themed tourism activities to attract tourists from all over the world. Spring is also a romantic season of warm spring and blooming flowers. In summer, the Three Gorges cruise ships will launch many promotional and discount activities. Booking tickets at this time is the most affordable, and it is also the peak season for parent-child travel.

Autumn is the most suitable time to go, with the Three Gorges red leaves that are most popular among tourists, and there is also less rainfall, so it won't be too hot.

I went there in spring and it felt great. I bought a cruise ticket in advance at theMeiya Three Gorges Cruise Ticket BookingCenter. It took me four days from Chongqing to Yichang, and taking a cruise with my child was too leisurely. Usually, taking a cruise with my child was almost tiring, but taking a boat can free my hands. I also had to visit the attractions of the Three Gorges to truly experience the immersive feeling. The Three Gorges Dam is magnificent and truly the greatest water conservancy project in the world today.

The Three Gorges Dam is the world's largest water conservancy hub project, and visiting it in June and July is the best time. During this season, the rainfall is relatively abundant, and you can see the flood discharge. The flood discharge is spectacular and spectacular, with magnificent waves. And several years ago, the Three Gorges Dam waived admission fees, only charging a sightseeing bus fare of 35 yuan per person for the scenic area.
