... those from Chengdu, Guilin, Xi&#8217;an, Guizhou collected in Chongqing, then transport to many other parts of China. The Three Gorges were once the most dangerous area on the Yangtze River till the middle of the last century. At that time there is nearly no motor Yangtze ...

... a<br>bus! This got everyone's blood pumping! <br><br><br>But we made it to the cruise ship by<br>8:30 pm. Boarding ended at 9:00 and we set sail at 10:00. The rooms<br>were larger then I expected and even still we upgraded rooms for a<br>minimal charge. So our room has two twin beds side by side, a cot, a<br>bathroom and a nice balcony. We will be making this trip on the<br>Yangtze in style! We are looking forward to being in one place and<br>having some down time. <br><br><br><br><br><br>

... Shein temppelillä sekä Kuninkaan valkoisessa kaupungissa. Kävimme myös ajelemassa pienemmillä veneillä kapealla solalla sillä aikaa, kun paattimme odotti meitä. Päänähtävyys oli kuitenkin Jangtse-joki ja sen varrella olevat kolme solaa &#8211;three gorges- jotka kulkivat joen vierellä. Maisemat olivat paikoin upeat ja pari päivää istuimme yläkannella teetä juoden ja näkymiä ihastellen. <br><br>. <br><br>Risteilyn huonoin puoli taisi kuitenkin olla se, että olimme ...

... but then they all left for their nicotine fix and left the few Westerners in the bar until late. <br><br>Saturday morning was even earlier, a 7.15 wake up call which led to a very early lunch, at 11.15am! This was because we had to go on a guided tour of a tributary which was really beautiful and had coffins high up in the cliffs, monkeys dotted about and rare mountain goats. After dinner we were supposed to be going through the huge ship lock but it ...

... Chongqing on the way to Guanxi province and decided to overnight in the city, rather than spend the entire day waiting at the airport. Like most other Chinese cities, a thick pall of pollution hung over the city. Half of the buildings are currently being torn down to make way for new buildings. The entire downtown is ...

... pick up the tag. As on this occasion we did not have one, we found a bar where we could buy little miniture bottles of vodka and glasses of coke as mixers. This proved to be the cheapest way to enjoy in a drink, and we had a good chat about China,Ibs, who was studying Chinese in China being very knowledgeble about it. Then we headed back into the bars, where we met a group of Chinese lads from Shanghai who were in town on business. They invited us to drink with them and we ...

... those of Harbin; the rice plantations and the farmers at work. They've also been preparing for Chinese New Year. Today happens to be the New Year's Eve. Tomorrow it'll be the Year of the Rat, or more politely, the Mouse. Apart from the firecrackers going off which feels as though your under artillery shells, the Uni campus here is quite quiet. But that's it, back to square one, although: "Sheng Dan Kwai Le" (Happy New Year), and a ...

... that had just gotten off a 5 star cruise on the Yangtze and really enjoyed it. A 5 Star cruise was out of the question for me so I decided to take the easy route and book a "tour" from the Travel Agency. Of course, they didn't tell me that the "tour" started with a 7am bus to Chongqing even though the boat didn't leave until 11pm that night. We arrived in Chongqing around noon so we had 11 hours to kill in the fastest growing city in China. Billions of RMB ...

... and over 1 million people are being re-housed in other cities in the province. The boat was about 60% full and most of the passengers were using this as transport rather than tourism. That meant we had near enough unrestricted access to the best viewing area on the boat. The scenery is breath-taking, many sheer cliff faces lined with trees plus the odd wild goat wandering about. Despite the challenge of farming on this land, many shacks were dotted ...
