BRISTOL POTTERUnited States

Let’s go! Chongqing is not what you think. It is worth your experience.

There is almost no flat land There are always endless slopes to climb⛰️ Road traffic🚠up to the sky and into the ground Can't tell which floor of the building🏢I am on Hot pot🍲so spicy that I doubt my life … These rough impressions were what I thought Chongqing was like, many of which came from fragmented information on the Internet and a few words from others, but is that all? Only after you have been there can you truly appreciate it. What I am used to is to turn off the navigation, hold the map in my hand 🗺️, use my feet 👣 to find the way, and capture close-up scenes with my eyes. I saw that the years have left a deep historical imprint on the bluestone road; the ancient city wall can vaguely see the style and majesty of the past; immigrants wrote the story of revival three hundred years ago in the amber yellow Chinese-style buildings 🎞️; the streets and alleys still have the figures of the "Bang Bang Army" who carry the world on their shoulders... Chongqing has too many mysteries worth exploring. Recommended attractions: ✔️Baixiang Street The most prosperous area in Chongqing during its opening period. The shop signs, windows, post offices, etc. are full of the style of the Republic of China, and every building exudes the breath of history. ✔️Huguang Guild Hall The building is built along the river and on the slope. The mountainous terrain gives the guild hall a spatial beauty that is difficult to create in a flat building complex. The decoration of the details such as the roof ridge and beams is even more exquisite. ✔️Dongshuimen Yangtze River Bridge Standing on the bridge🌁, you can see the bustling CBD🏙️ in the distance, traditional historical buildings🏯 nearby, and the "time-space shuttle" suspended in the air in the middle. It's like entering a wonderful world where time and space intersect. ✔️Hongya Cave Built on the edge of a 75-meter-high cliff, at night, the pavilions and towers are painted with golden and magnificent lights, as if it is a street market in the sky. ✔️Chongqing Shibati Traditional Style Area The old buildings with a strong symbol of the times are distributed in terraces. Going up along the stone steps, it seems like reading a history of Chongqing's Bayu local history, the history of the opening of the port, and the history of urban development. ✔️Jiefangbei Jiefangbei is to Chongqing what Tiananmen Square is to Beijing. The monument is made of stone, milky white in color, octagonal in shape, with several bells on the top. The area around the Liberation Monument is very prosperous. ✔️Bayi Road Food Street It gathers many Chongqing-style delicacies, including hot pot, noodles, soup noodles, spicy skewers, mountain city small glutinous rice balls, wonton, bangbang chicken, etc. ✔️Shanchengxiang Historical and Cultural Area Walk along this bluestone road built on the mountain⛰️ and along the cliff. Going up, the main street is on the left side of the cliff, overlooking the city and the Yangtze River🌊; on the right side, there are several small streets and lanes, distinctive residential buildings🏠, and deep air-raid shelters... ✔️Tongyuanmen Ancient City Wall Among the nine gates in Chongqing, it is the only ancient city gate that is not close to the river but only to the land. It is built of stone slabs, with double-layer arched doorways, and the city wall is built following the terrain of the mountain. ✔️Zaozigangya Trail in Time This slope decorates the mountain city in "time". The grooves on the wall record the image of old Chongqing; the reliefs of PHS and MP3 illustrate the changes in life over the past few decades; the spliced ​​stairs are painted with Chongqing's characteristic city cards such as the Yangtze River Cableway 🚠.
