Being one of the top Cruisers on Yangtze River, the Sunshine China was built in accordance with international five-star standard. Built and put into operation in 1996, it is 87 meters long, 16.4 meter wide with a draft of 2.6 meters. Installed with engines of 2690 h.p., it will be able to sail from Chongqing to Shanghai all the year around at a maximum speed of 28 km per hour in still water. There is 1 presidential suite, 6 spacious deluxe suites, 8 standard single cabins and 54 standard double-bed cabins. Total capacity is 136 passengers.

The ship’s public areas, whether indoor saloon or out on deck, are warm and inviting places for all the kinds of people to meet, relax and view the picturesque gorges of Yangtze River. Cabins are more like guestrooms in a fine home – beautifully furnished, comfortably arranged, and complete with the little extras one would expect from a thoughtful host. The cuisine is superb with Chinese Style and western style for people to choose, though we strongly suggest guests to try those China’s best local specialties. Beautifully decorated dining hall is large enough to accommodate all passengers in single leisurely seating. Friendly staff on board will pleasantly attend to every passenger’s request.

The ship’s facilities are for most convenience and comforts of guests: sauna and massage, gym, beauty salon, night club, sunbathe, gift shop, ballroom, business center, satellite communication systems, circuit TV and a lot more. Your Three-Gorge journey will be a dreamed one, especially when you have an exceptional experience aboard the Sunshine China!

The ship will be cruising between Yichang and Chongqing in first half of 2003 and between Shashi and Chongqing the next half of the year.
