Photos from a three week land and
cruise on the Yangtze River in June 2006 - a study in contrasts - old
and young - rural and city - rich and poor - ancient and modern. We took
a 15-night adventure exploring China’s cradle of culture with a 9-night
cruise on the Yangtze all the way from Chongqing to Nanjing. We saw the
many wonders of Beijing, Xian and Shanghai, plus visited the roots of
Chinese civilization from Jingdezhen, birthplace of porcelain, to Mt.
Jiu Hua’s remote Buddhist Temple complex, to Nanjing, former capital of
ancient China, and Suzhou with its famed gardens. This adventure is for
those who want to really understand the origins of Chinese culture.
