You may have noticed that we haven't been able to update this lately - the internet connection on the boat was slow - so sorry! We'll have to try and explain how incredible the last 3 days on the Yangtze were...
We left from Chongqing after dinner - and straight to bed the first night - so nothing exciting.... But the next day...
A misty visit to the Ghost City of Feng du seemed so fitting... The city of Feng Du was one of the towns relocated (over 150,000 people were relocated due to the higher water levels due to the new dam) - but they left the Temples of Death - that were at the pinnacle of the mountain. There were two ways to get up, walk or by cable car - which was actually just like a ski lift!!
Once up there - there were many temples - all beautiful, with many Buddhas... The god of Hell is the black figure - even though he is not supposed to be scary - his presence and temple with his 18 horrible disciples was quite chilling for all!
