Der Yangtze-Fluss ist mit einer Gesamtlänge von 6300 km der längste Fluss Asiens und der drittgrößte Fluss der Welt. Er entspringt an der Südwestseite des Schneeberges Geladangdong, dem Hauptgipfel des Tanggula Gebirges und mündet dann ins Ost-Chinesische Meer nahe Shanghai. Andere Schreibweisen für Yangtze sind Yangtse, Jangtse, Yangkze und Yankzi.
Die Drei Yangtze-Schluchten: Die ca. 70 km lange und einst wegen ihrer gefährlichen Untiefen gefürchtete Xiling-Schlucht, die ca. 40 km lange Wu-Schlucht, und die ca. 8 km lange Qutang-Schlucht befinden sich zwischen Chongqing und Wuhan. Sie sind eine der wenigen Schluchten der Welt, die während der Yangtze-Reisen auf dem Passagierschiff bewundert werden können. Nach der begonnenen Stauung des Yangtze-Flusses hat sich die Landschaft entlang des Flusses nicht im wesentlichen verändert, da die Berge entlang des schönsten Teilstücks zwischen 1000 und 1500 Meter hoch sind. Hier ist nach wie vor ein atemberaubendes Landschaftsbild zu bewundern.
