| While
there is a large number and variety of cruise ships
sailing through marvelous Yangtze Gorges, we are proud
to feature one of the most valuable and most luxurious
& the fabulous "Yangtze Angel". Built
in 1995 and furbished in recent years, this five star
winning vessel combines sophistication and elegance,
well known for her novel design, graceful outline and
deluxe deco. At a length of 91.5 m and a width of 16.4
m with a draft of 2.65 m, she is installed with two
main engines of 3840 h.p in total, which makes it to
sail at a maximum speed of 30 km per hour in still water.
Same as the Blue Whale and others, this is the one we
keep receiving high scoring from our past clients? feedback
as well as a "best is here" promise from a
confident management team.
Being
one of the largest deluxe cruise ships on the Yangtze
waterway, the Angel was not designed for holding more
people but for giving people more space to stretch
out and explore. With a maximum capacity of 146 people,
it is "small" enough to be intimate and
personable. There are 2 luxurious and best located
president suites, 6 deluxe single suites, 6 deluxe
singles (including one specially designed for disables),
and 62 standard staterooms, 36 of which even have
a private balcony attached. All the suites and cabins
are superbly appointed, with private bathrooms, air-conditioning,
circuit TV, satellite telephone and all of the creature
comforts found on the Western style deluxe cruisers.
The public areas are well laid out and beautifully
furnished. This modern ship accommodates all aspects
of freestyle cruising with a variety of amenities,
such as gym, coffee house, video cinema, bar, ballroom,
karaoke, gift shop, beauty parlor, sauna and massage.
Eating
is always a favorite activity on cruises, and compliments
of an excellent culinary staff, the food aboard the
Angel is outstanding,. Both provincial gourmet dishes
from various regions of China and Western cuisine
are served to satisfy all tastes and appetites. There
are lots of entertainment activities such as "Taiji"
teaching, traditional opera, local dancing performance
and some games aboard day and night. The cruise staff
was very good C they let you know what was going on
but were never pushy or intrusive.
Everyone
was provided a welcoming, unpretentious environment,
feeling free to set his or her own pace.
For
a good time, the Angel has been successfully attracting
more tourists each year. With grand style, superior
design, well-appointed accommodations, attentive service
and award-winning cuisine, the Angel is truly a floating
luxury resort, filled with everything you ever could
imagine, to carry you on the journey of your dreams.
In the most of first half of 2003, the Angle will
be sailing between Yichang and Chongqing. In the second
half, it will be sailing between Shashi and Chongqing.
