Experience Boat Tours in Chongqing

Best things to do in Chongqing: This is a much bigger city than you’d imagine, so has plenty of places to enjoy and immerse in. There’s Chongqing Zoo with its rare species, and the Three Gorges Museum will give you a cultural history. Luohan Temple is known for its sculptures, and for a special treat, other than your boat tour is a visit to Fengdu Ghost City. An ancient underworld-themed mountain city. Plenty there to keep you occupied.

When to visit Chongqing: The spring and autumn seasons are your best time to visit Chongqing. This is when the weather is at its most pleasant, and the humidity isn’t going to be high. Summer here in such a big city is hot and very humid, and winters in contrast are bleak and foggy.

Make it an extended cruise: To get a whole experience take a 3-night, 4-day boat cruise, usually from Chongqing to Yichang. Places you’ll visit on the cruise include Three Gorges, the Three Gorges Dam and Shibaozhai Pagoda. An experience you’ll never forget.
