Yangtze River Cruises
Ever thought about cruising one of the world's longest rivers? The Yangtze cuts through China's heart, passing the Three Gorges where cliffs rise straight from the water. Beijing gives you the Forbidden City and Great Wall, Xi'an reveals those famous Terracotta Warriors, and Chengdu lets you hang out with giant pandas. Shanghai's Bund shows the modern side while Fengdu Ghost City keeps things mysterious.
