Three Gorges Dam Five-Step Ship Lock

Three Gorges Dam Ship Lock: Watch Giant Boats Go Up & Down

4.8 (236)

Watching a massive cruise ship descend through these five-stage locks is oddly satisfying engineering porn. Most people catch this during a 4D3N Yangtze cruise from Chongqing, but the logistics of the transit take about three hours. Don't bother with the premium boat view tickets if you're already on a luxury line like the Victoria or Century series; just grab a spot on the deck. It moves slow, so bring a portable charger and patience.
