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 2009 and between Shashi and Chongqing the next half of the
year. |
