Three Kingdoms is a 4-star standard ship cruising on the Yangtze River. The 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. Looking like an Eastern Han Dynasty warship with watch towers, musts, fluttering banners, forest of swords and spears, Three Kingdoms offers a magnificent sight. The interior includes a castle-like entrance hall, a ceiling inlaid with the stars and constellations, replica of Chibi cliff done with canny workmanship, unique reed pipes and bronze bells and an eye-catching Shopping corridor in Han dynasty style. All reflect the life style in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

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. 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 shown 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 China.
