While the Yangtze River Cruise was a nice break from the fast-paced activity of the first few weeks, there were still plenty of opportunities to experience China and all of its beauty. During one of the few days it didn’t rain during the cruise, we passed by many other ships and under a couple of bridges. Near one of the bridges was located a couple small lighthouses. Although simplistic in its design, this particular lighthouse showcases China’s engineering ability to build a large enough lighthouse on the side of a river as well as a way for people to easily reach the lighthouse regardless of the river water levels.
