A truly cost-effective trip to the Three Gorges!

Cruise ship: Interstellar Athena Highly recommend this boat! Great value for money! As a poor student with limited funds, and in need of some atmosphere, this is really an option! The facilities are European + modern, almost brand new, and the room is very big! Price: around 3000 Cruise + cabin upgrade = around 2500 (prices will fluctuate over time) Xiao Sanxia (including Xiao Xiao Sanxia) + boat lift = 580 Time: Four days and three nights Meals: The cruise fee includes three meals on the second and third days and breakfast on the fourth day (equivalent to 7 meals) All buffets, the food variety is really complete, every meal is a surprise! The food and beverage on the cruise ship is comparable to a buffet of around 100 yuan, and can even surpass it in terms of variety and ingredients! It’s just very conscientious! You won’t feel hungry or eat poorly! And the dinner will include cakes, snacks and drinks, all free! Attractions⛰️: All are worth visiting 1️⃣ Get on the ship around 5pm on the first day and leave Chongqing around 8pm The cruise ship docks at Chaotianmen Wharf. The ship staff will inform you of the specific pier in advance. You can see the river view of Chongqing. The cruise ship will drive under the Yangtze River Cableway and turn around, passing through Chaotianmen. It’s like touring the night view of Chongqing! 2️⃣ Arrive at Fengdu Ghost Town in the morning and Shibaozhai in the afternoon Both attractions are free. You can choose to take the cable car 🚡 up and down the mountain in Fengdu Ghost Town (the cable car costs RMB 35 per person), so it is still worth a visit. 3️⃣ On the third day, go to Baidi City in the morning (charged), and visit Xiao Sanxia and Xiao Xiao Sanxia in the afternoon (charged) We didn’t go to Baidi City. We chose to sleep in on the boat, which was really nice. We had lunch right after waking up and passed by the 10-yuan check-in spot (there are explanations on the deck, so you have to eat lunch quickly, otherwise you’ll miss it). In the afternoon, the Little Three Gorges includes the Small Little Three Gorges, and you will take a boat the whole way. The only regret is that I didn’t see any monkeys🐒. I saw two little monkeys on the shore while on the boat! Bring a telescope to see the hanging coffins! 4️⃣On the fourth day, take the boat lift (charged) in the morning to visit the Three Gorges Dam and arrive at Yichang East at around 2pm. I am really shocked by the powerful weapon of a great country! Be sure to take the boat lift! Everyone, sit down! The ship lift and the five-level ship lock are not the same thing. It takes 3-5 hours to pass through the five-level ship lock of the Three Gorges Dam. You can see the panoramic view from the top of the Three Gorges Dam! Other facilities on the cruise ship: gym, chess and card room, KTV and other entertainment facilities. I didn’t go to these entertainment facilities because I was really tired from the trip. Everyone should prepare some medicine before boarding the ship, just in case! Overall, it's really worth it! The past few days were really relaxing, especially watching the sunrise and sunset on the cruise ship. Being on the Yangtze River, watching the hustle and bustle on the shore, I was able to steal a half day of leisure. Or you can be in the Three Gorges and truly return to and integrate into nature. It's over, it's over, go to sleep💤
