The Three Gorges route is so impactful, it's worth adding to your life's bucket list!

The Three Gorges, a place most people first learn about from books. Li Bai penned the famous lines 'The sounds of monkeys on either bank can't be stopped, the light boat has already passed thousands of mountains' during a turning point in his life, and to this day, it is still celebrated by people around the world. Yu Qiuyu wrote in 'Cultural Journey': 'Among the interesting places in China, if I could only mention one, it would be the Three Gorges.' Why do the Three Gorges captivate literati and scholars from all walks of life to linger and forget to return? Perhaps this journey can give us the answer~ 📍 Here is the Qutang Gorge, known for its perilous terrain, where the narrowest part of the river is just over 10 meters, yet the peaks on both sides can reach thousands of meters high. The ancients described it as 'Peaks join the sky, boats travel through earth's crevices,' a unique scenery that one must see when visiting the Three Gorges. 📍 Here is the summit of the Three Gorges, the highest point of the Yangtze River Three Gorges landscape, offering a comprehensive overlook of the magnificent scenery of the Three Gorges, bringing a thrilling visual experience. 📍 Here are the Kui Prefecture Museum and the Wushan Museum, rich in cultural relics, where you can explore the little-known stories behind ancient artifacts and look back on the history of this land over thousands of years. 📍 This is also the background image of the 10 yuan banknote, just bring the banknote and you can take a photo check-in on the spot~ Fun and interesting special activities: ✅ Calligraphy and Poetry Gathering Many literati and scholars were inspired to write timeless poems when passing through the Three Gorges. On the banks of the Three Gorges, we have also prepared a recitation gathering for everyone, facing the river breeze of the Three Gorges to recite poems and experience the carefree and hearty dialogue with history. ✅ Tea Tasting in the Clouds🍵 What does it feel like to drink tea in the clouds? Before you is the magnificent view of the Three Gorges, and in your ears is the crisp chirping of birds in the mountains. With the fragrant tea entering your mouth, accompanied by such beautiful scenery, whenever you reminisce, the aftertaste is always tinged with a hint of sweetness. 🥢Specialty food enjoyment 🔴 Wushan Grilled Fish It is said that you eat what the land or water provides, and the people of Wushan have a deep understanding of how to cook fish. The grilled fish, famous for its spicy, fresh, and fragrant flavor with tender meat and sticky skin, is a 'must-eat in Wushan'! 🔴 Salt-baked Chicken Salt-baked chicken is a unique intangible cultural heritage food of Fengjie, with unique cooking utensils that use steam as the broth, preserving the original flavors of the chicken and cured meat. The meat is tender, and the soup is fresh and tasty, truly a delicacy that has been passed down for a thousand years! 🔍Itinerary Preview 🔹DAY1: Gather and depart to Fengjie - Lunch - Tour Qutang Gorge - Kui Prefecture Museum - Qutang Gorge·Baidi City - Dinner 🔹DAY2: Visit the summit of the Three Gorges - Lunch - Tour the Lesser Three Gorges - Specialty meal 🔹DAY3: Wushan Museum - Tour Wenfeng Scenic Area - Lunch - Return trip
