I spent 3 days in Yichang, and my concept of spending has been shattered.

In March, as the grass grows and orioles fly, everything comes back to life. Yichang, a city nestled along the Yangtze River, bursts with vitality under the spring sunshine. Follow this guide to experience its unique charm! 📸Must-See Attractions Three Gorges Dam 📍Address: Three Gorges Dam Area, Sandouping Town, Yiling District, Yichang City 🎫Tickets: Free (Pre-booking required for shuttle bus within the scenic area, 35 CNY/person) ⏳Time: 08:00 - 17:00 As the world's largest water conservancy project, the Three Gorges Dam is magnificent. In March, as the weather warms up, ascend Tanzi Ridge to overlook the entire dam and experience the spectacular scene of "cutting off the clouds and rain of Wu Mountain, creating a smooth lake from high gorges." Standing on the 185 viewing platform, you'll get a close-up view of the dam. The rushing water below is a stunning masterpiece interwoven with nature and human ingenuity🌊. Three Gorges Family 📍Address: Three Gorges Family Scenic Area, Yiling District, Yichang City 🎫Tickets: 180 CNY/person ⏳Time: 08:00 - 17:30 Stepping into Three Gorges Family is like stumbling into a paradise. In March, peach and pear blossoms bloom throughout the scenic area🌸. Stilt houses with white walls and black tiles are scattered among the flowers and trees. Local girls sing folk songs by the stream, and visitors can take a wupeng boat to admire the green hills and clear waters on both sides, experiencing the authentic folk customs of the Three Gorges. Qingjiang Gallery 📍Address: Longzhouping Town, Changyang Tujia Autonomous County, Yichang City 🎫Tickets: Route A package 158 CNY/person, Route B package 85 CNY/person ⏳Time: 08:00 - 17:00 In March, the banks of the Qingjiang River are lush and green, and the river is crystal clear, like emeralds. Take a cruise through the picturesque landscape, as if sailing through a painting. Along the way, you'll see various peaks, some resembling camels, others like fairies, showcasing the wonders of nature. Qingjiang Gallery is like a slowly unfolding landscape scroll, each scene captivating💕. Moji Mountain Park 📍Address: Yanjiang Avenue, Dianjun District, Yichang City 🎫Tickets: Free ⏳Time: Open all day In March, this is the perfect place to overlook Yichang City and the Yangtze River. Ascend the steps along the hiking trail, passing fragrant wildflowers. At the summit, the entire city comes into view, with the Yangtze River winding through it like a ribbon. Ships crisscross the river🚢, creating a dynamic yet serene picture against the backdrop of distant mountains. 🍽️What to Eat Fatty fish is a must-try in Yichang. The fish is tender, melts in your mouth, and is delicious whether steamed or braised🐟. Don't miss the roasted potatoes, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, paired with spicy sauce for a rich flavor. There's also Ding Ding Cake, sweet and soft, with a strong rice aroma, taking you back to your childhood with every bite😋. 🏡Where to Stay Xiling District is recommended for its convenient transportation, numerous restaurants and shopping options. Hotels and homestays of all levels are available🛏️, catering to different needs. 🚶‍♀️How to Get There ✈️: Yichang Sanxia Airport has a wide range of routes. Upon arrival, take the airport bus or a taxi to the city center. 🚄: Yichang East Railway Station is a major transportation hub with a well-developed high-speed rail network, making it easy to reach Yichang from all over the country. Yichang in March embodies the romance of spring amidst its mountains and rivers. Come to Yichang and embark on an unforgettable journey, embracing this beautiful city of the Three Gorges🎉!
