A boat cruise sailing at night from Yichang Port along the Gezhouba stretch of the river, taking in the lights on both banks in an hour. Highlights = Zhenjiang Pavilion, the riverside park light belt, the night view of the Gezhouba ship locks, and the skyline of this city of bridges; deck seats are the most sought after. Yichang Port (Pier 9) carries on old Yichang's wharf culture and, after tourism renovation, became the home port of the night cruises. The night cruise is the urban prelude to Three Gorges cruise itineraries; sailings increase in summer and Golden Week, making it ideal as a warm-up before your trip or a finale at its end.
Getting there: Board at the Three Gorges Visitor Center (Pier 9)
