     Perhaps the most interesting stop was Zigui, a county seat where we docked for the second night of the cruise. A famous poet and statesman, Qu Yuan, committed suicide in about 288 B.C. by leaping into the river here. His suicide is commemmorated each spring with dragon boat races, held especially for tourists, who can participate, whenever a cruise boat pulls up. It's all rather hokey, but everybody seemed to have fun. We also explored Zigui and visited a temple honoring Qu Yuan.
