Little Gorges
Next stop along the Chiang Jiang (Yangzi) River Cruise was at the Little Gorges. At this point you get off the boat for what must have been 5 hours. Some people decide to just hang around town, but the best thing to do is take the optional tour to see the Little Gorges. This was one of the highlights on my short trip to China. You see so many wonderful cliffs. In short, you get up close and personal with the little gorges, while on the larger ones you just see them from the boat. Also, you get to see many of the tourists (chinese and others) wonder about the sights so it's great to people watch too.
