Chinese river cruise company Century Cruises is launching a new river cruise ship for the Yangtze River, Century Voyage, in September.
The 15,000-ton ship is nearly 150 metres and over 21 metres wide and will feature 236 cabins, each of which will offer more than 26 square metres of space. The ship will also include the Sisi Lounge, a two-deck venue at the front of the vessel where guests can view the passing scenery of the Yangtze River. Local cuisine will be prepared onboard by international chefs, as well as locally-influenced entertainment and cultural activities.
