China Travel Tips
Serenity
Star: 
Built in 1993 and last furbished in 2003, MS. Serenity (Pinghu) distinguishes herself from other same class Yangtze cruise ships by providing considerably larger cabins. Her hull is made of closed glass curtain wall, which gives her a highly faired style possessed only by the luxurious ocean liners. The US ¨C made glass curtain walls with a green coating, continuously reflecting the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Yangtze River.
