The Eastern Star capsized last week in bad weather, killing 1 more than 400 people onboard. It was pulled by a tugboat to calmer waters around 10 km upstream from its accident site.
The Ministry 2 of Transport says removing the ship from the edge of the main channel will also facilitate navigation on the Yangtze.
Families of the victims have meanwhile begun collecting the personal belongings 3 of their loved ones at a funeral parlor 4 in Jianli County in central China's Hubei Province.
Only 14 people survived the maritime 5 disaster, with eight others still unaccounted for.
