Wuhan, Chibi, Jingzhou & Xiangyang Three Kingdoms

Follow the stories of the Three Kingdoms through Wuhan, Chibi, Jingzhou, Dangyang, and Xiangyang, relying mainly on high-speed rail and short-distance charters.

This itinerary follows the historical timeline of Chibi, Jingzhou, Changbanpo, and Longzhong, focusing on ancient battlefield ruins, city walls, and museums at a steady pace. Public transport is inconvenient in Chibi and Dangyang, so short-distance chartered cars are required.
