"Sanguo"
means Three Kingdoms in Chinese, which was dated back to 220 A.D. and was one of the most
well-know periods in China¡¯s history when troops of Wei, Shu and Wu kingdoms into which
the country was divided fought fierce battles against each other. Some of the famous
battlefields and other historic sites are scattered along the Yangtze River. This 92
meters long, 16.8 meters wide deluxe cruise ship is a replica of an ancient warship then,
a mixture of most modern techniques and ancient atmosphere and surroundings. Aboard the
Three Kingdoms, you are starting a"warship"voyage along the Yangtze River. There
are archaistic lookout towers, masts, fluttering banners and flags, and forest of swords
and spears; ashore visits to Chibi, Yiling and Zhandao (all are old battlefields or sites
in that period); ancient songs played by an orchestra that have bamboo flutes, reed pipes,
drums and other traditional Chinese instruments. They all lead you back to a life in later
years of Eastern Han Dynasty. This definitely is an extra and valuable bonus on your Three
Gorges trip.
Though it seems that you are playing a role in old time of China aboard, do not forget
you are served by a group of well-trained people, with many most advanced facilities
around you. The ship has 2 Presidential Suites, 7 Deluxe Suites and 67 Standard Cabins.
The average size of a Standard Cabin is 16.7 square meters. On-board facilities include a
viewing tower, a sun-deck, bar & coffee shop, night club, sauna, beauty salon, gift
shop, satellite communications systems, in-house movie and cable, stereo music channel,
laundry and clinic with massage service.
During the voyage, passengers will be invited to various activities according to
personal interests. Martial arts performances are given everyday. Qigong masters will show
their stunts. More mind blowing moment comes before the end of the trip: the captain will
host a gala-party for all guests on board, which is also a replica of palace banquet in ancient
