Recommendations for Yichang Three Gorges Tour (Affordable Route)

2 days is plenty of time.

Yichang is not big, but the main attractions are still not in and around the city.

Going to Yichang is still the main tour of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and the Three Gorges Dam altar ridge scenic area (this own ticket, casual visitors can not go up, it is recommended that you still go with the group is more appropriate.)

In fact, I also recommend that you go with the group, Yichang City, although the public bus system is very convenient, but there are no classic attractions in the city, and secondly, you are not familiar with the city, then there will be a lot of time wasted in looking for attractions and transportation above, very uneconomical.

Scenic area near the food is more expensive, this is the same everywhere in China.

Upstairs two people recommended, a lot of actually you can go to play at night, downtown well.
