The most unforgettable trip to Yichang: the Yangtze River at night, crossing Gezhouba, the real version of the rising tide lifts all boats.

This is my first visit to Yichang, Hubei.

This second largest city in Hubei is known as the "gateway to the Three Gorges" and the "throat of Sichuan and Hubei". The world-famous Gezhouba and Three Gorges Dam are located here and are known as the "hydropower capital of the world".

Travel in Yichang, punch in the nine cave restaurants in the world-Weng Fang Restaurant. The whole restaurant is built around a hole in the mountain, and there is a plank road on the cliff. After crossing the plank road, there is a hole in the sky.

Standing in the window of the restaurant, opposite the beautiful scenery, there is also a bungee jumping platform, where you can watch the brave jump while eating.

I also tasted Yichang's famous dish: original fat fish, which was really delicious. Although a catty of fish costs 198 yuan, the pot of fish is close to 400 yuan.

The wild vegetable cake pioneered by the restaurant owner is also very recommended, so you should eat it while it is hot.

I also went to the Three Gorges residence in Xiling Gorge, which is the most dreamy and magnificent of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and a national 5A-level tourist attraction. Every 50 steps, there are surprises waiting for you.

Feel the ancient and mysterious Bachu culture step by step.

Long-lost ancient sailboats, girls washing clothes by the stream, fishermen casting nets for fishing ... this scenic spot is really beautiful.

Through the combination of boat tour and walking, first take a cruise from the pier and feel the original ecological natural scenery on both sides of the Three Gorges. Then walk after the cruise ship arrives at the scenic spot.

Immersive scene design, every scene is picturesque.

But the most unforgettable experience of this trip to Yichang is the night tour of the Yangtze River.

This is a wonderful night. The whole night tour route in Yichang is: Three Gorges Tourist Center-Natural Tower-Crossing Gezhouba Ship Lock-getting off at Huangbai.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, after dinner, we arrived at the pier with two dams, one gorge and nine piers and boarded a luxury cruise ship.

This is a luxury cruise ship of the Yangtze Three Gorges series, equipped with sightseeing deck, restaurant, tea bar, bar, luxury private room, multi-function hall and other luxury leisure facilities.

When you enter the cruise ship, you will start to cross and make you forget everything that happened today.

Just sitting down in the pavilion, Qu Yuan and Zhao Jun took a cruise.

The cruise ship started slowly, the river breeze caressed, and the bright night scenes of the cities on both sides of the strait merged with the scenery of the Xiajiang River, and the heart was full of romance.

The cruise ship passes through the landmark natural tower of Yiling ancient city; Yiling Yangtze River Bridge, modern technology and art complement each other; Mount Moggi, which has a peak overlooking the whole city; Zhenjiang attic is magnificent and awesome. ......

The whole process gives you a certain understanding of the city.

During the period, there were wonderful song and dance performances, stories of Qu Yuan and Zhao Jun, which were performed on the stage, and finally there was a particularly funny crossing dance.

Qu Yuan and Zhao Jun are both from Yichang, Hubei Province, where they met.

As we all know, Qu Yuan was a poet and politician of Chu in the Warring States Period. After the capital of Chu was breached by Qin Jun, he threw himself into the Miluo River and died for Chu.

Qu Yuan is a great patriotic poet in the history of China and the founder of romantic literature in China. The appearance of Qu Yuan's works marks that China's poetry has entered a new era from elegant harmony to romantic originality.

Through the actor's physical deduction, he was moved by the feelings of patriotic poets.

Returning to the deck after the performance, the night became more and more charming.

The night tour of Yichang Yangtze River shows Yichang's diverse customs, high-rise buildings, gurgling rivers under its feet and beautiful scenery on both sides of the strait from a new perspective, which makes people see things in a blur.

The most surprising thing about the night tour of the Yangtze River is that it finally passed the Gezhouba dam, the first dam of the Yangtze River, and experienced the crossing of dams and gates, feeling the rising tide lifts all boats, and realizing the pride of "crossing this gate and caring for home".

A few minutes later, our cruise ship arrived at the top of Gezhouba dam, marveling at the wisdom of the builders.

Gezhouba is the first large-scale hydropower station on the Yangtze River, and the largest runoff hydropower station with low head and large flow in the world. The maximum dam is 47 meters high, but it only takes a few minutes to turn over the gate to fill the dam.

That night, I was lucky enough to record the whole process from the perspective of the captain, from closing the gate, injecting water and opening the gate.

Relying on the night view along the river and crossing the Gezhouba lock at night as the highlight, this is a modern urban feast of the world hydropower city, and I really recommend it to you.
