The ultimate Chongqing Citywalk! A breathtaking 4km hike!

Help! I've discovered a heavenly hiking route in Chongqing! It combines spring romance, stunning river views, and cultural charm. The entire 4 km route is easy on the legs, and every shot is a social media sensation! Save this now👇 🚇 Transportation Guide Take Metro Line 1 to Gaomiaocun Station, Exit 2, and navigate to "Pingdingshan Park." It's a 10-minute walk to the starting point! Great for lazy people: there's no backtracking on the entire route, and you can "retreat" at any time from Hongyancun Light Rail Station, Hutouyan Park, and other stations. It's perfect for a spontaneous Citywalk! 🌉 Must-See Attractions 1. Pingdingshan Park Viewing Platform: You'll be amazed as soon as you enter the park! A huge lawn + viewing platform offers a panoramic view of the skyscrapers and river views of Shapingba and Jiangbei. It's the perfect place for a spring picnic! Lay out a picnic mat, bask in the sun, and enjoy the breeze. Even daydreaming here is super therapeutic. 2. Cliffside River View Spot: A hidden gem with a mountain backdrop and river view! The spring water of the Jialing River meanders like a silk ribbon, and the prosperity of Jiangbei New Area on the opposite bank is fully visible. Every shot is a "river view masterpiece"! 3. Longquan Cave: A hidden ancient architectural secret in the mountains! With its upturned eaves and red walls, the entrance is marked by a boundary monument between Shapingba and Yuzhong districts. It's a must-see for ancient style enthusiasts! Wear Hanfu for photos and travel back a thousand years in an instant. 4. Hongyancun Bridge Viewing Point: The bridgehead corridor is a natural photo studio! The unique bridge design, combined with the river view, is full of futuristic vibes. You can easily capture industrial and Japanese styles! If you get tired, you can take the light rail from Hongyancun Station to return. 5. Cliffside Hollow Plank Road: Chongqing's 8D magical feel is on full display! Light rail cars whiz by under your feet, and the canopy of banyan trees overhead, with distant skyscrapers and river views intertwined, make you feel like you've stepped into a real-life Spirited Away! 6. Halfway Up the Mountain Red Wall (End Point): The spring atmosphere is simply divine! The red wall paired with tender green buds and dappled light and shadows creates a super story-like feel. Back shots and side profiles are absolutely stunning, and you can directly gather enough material for nine photos for your social media feed! 🌟 Useful Tips ✅ Outfit Suggestions: Wear light-colored clothes for better photos, and pair them with white sneakers or sports shoes for a relaxed and comfortable experience! ✅ Sun Protection: The sun's ultraviolet rays are strong on sunny days, so sunscreen, sun hats, and sunglasses are essential! ✅ Personal Items: Bring a bottle of water + small snacks. There are supply points along the way. Bring a picnic mat so you can lie down on the lawn at any time! ✅ Pet-Friendly: You can bring your furry friends to run around, but remember to keep them on a leash and be a responsible pet owner. 💥 Summary: This Citywalk route is simply the ultimate spring hike! It's 4 km and easy on the feet, with beautiful scenery at every step. From river views to ancient buildings, from nature to culture, you can experience Chongqing's many charms in one go! Whether it's for taking photos, walking with kids, or a girls' day out, it's perfect! Take advantage of the beautiful spring weather and invite your friends to set off!
