I recently went on a cruise on the Yangtze River. This is a big thing for me because I really had no interest in traveling to and within the far east. It was simply a part of the world I had no interest in visiting. However, my husband always wanted to go so I finally broke down and agreed to go along with him. But my husband isn’t a stupid man. He knew that I didn’t really want to go, so he booked a trip that was a little out of scope of your standard travel. Instead of just flying over and taking tours within the country, he booked a Yangtze River cruise. I’d never heard of river cruising before and knew little about the Yangtze. I do enjoy cruises so this sweetened the deal a bit for me.

From the minute we arrived and boarded the ship, I was impressed with the accommodations and the countryside of China. Seeing the sites from the Yangtze River changed my perspective on Eastern culture and spawned a new-found love for the people. Going on this cruise was the greatest thing I could have done. If you’re thinking about visiting China, I definitely recommend seeing it from the Yangtze River.
