It’s really worth to pay a visit to Chongqing zoo. Value for money. It’s really very chill at Chongqing zoo during this autumn season. Can see a lot of active pandas 🐼. One of my favorite places in Chongqing. The only issue is zoo F & B and merchandise stores are pricy compared to outside. But overall enjoy a lot. Coffee near the panda place not bad but pricy 😜
Quite alot of pandas available in this zoo. It's cool. Cheap and value for the ticket.

The story of entrusting an orphan to Baidi City has been passed down through the ages, and the Yanhuidui in Kuimen, Qutang Gorge of the Yangtze River is also well-known. With its natural scenery, cultural history, spectacular views, and wonderful exhibitions, it is one of the most worthwhile attractions in Fengjie. There is a direct bus from the high-speed rail station to the scenic area gate. After crossing the river, some scenic spots are connected to the top of the Three Gorges, which can be visited together.
The scenery was beautiful, but the weather wasn't ideal, with wind and rain. It started raining and blowing as soon as we entered the area. Since we were traveling light, we had to go back to the car to get an umbrella, tell the staff. The area is worth a visit, but the signage isn't very clear. For example, the boat ride directions are listed on the ticket, but there's no signage or explanation inside the area, which isn't very convenient for individual tourists, especially the elderly, unless they can understand the map.

Chongqing Happy Valley is quite fun, and even more kid-friendly than Shanghai's Happy Valley. The kids had a blast, and my girlfriends had a blast too. There's even a makeup area! The NPCs there are so pretty and cool!
Highly recommended! Chongqing Happy Valley! Whether it's Halloween 🎃👻 or just any other time!
Let's go!
Okay, here's my review of Chongqing Happy Valley, condensed to under 500 words:
Chongqing Happy Valley Highlights 🎢
Recommended Highlights ✨
1. Unique Mountain Coasters:
· "Wings Soaring" Wing Coaster: Soar through the air, nestled against the mountains and water, for a visual and sensory thrill! 🔥
· "Jungle Dragon" Wooden Roller Coaster: The wooden structure delivers a wild and raw thrill, zipping through the mountains and forests for a thrilling ride! 🤘
2. "Top of Chongqing" Ferris Wheel: 🎡 One of the tallest Ferris wheels in Southwest China, overlooking Lijia and the mountain city skyline. The evening and night views are stunning, a must-try for a romantic getaway! 🌆
3. Rich Themed Festival Atmosphere: Events like the Halloween Haunted House 👻 and the Summer Electronic Music Party 🎶 are incredibly popular and well-themed, making them worth a special trip.
Things to Note ⚠️
· Physically challenging: The park is built on a hillside, and the entire ride involves climbing a mountain 😫. Be sure to wear comfortable sneakers! 👟
· Long queues: Popular rides often require a 1-2 hour wait on holidays. We recommend planning ahead using the official app 📱.
· Weather: Summer is hot 🥵, so be sure to wear sunscreen. Winter is cloudy and rainy 🌧️, so some rides may be closed.
Helpful Tips 🗺️
· Visit on a weekday for a less crowded experience.
· Go for the featured rides as soon as the park opens to save time in line.
· Bring your own sealed snacks and water; food and beverage prices are relatively high.
Summary: Chongqing Happy Valley, with its unique mountain roller coaster and high-quality festivals, offers a unique thrilling experience, making it a must-see for amusement park lovers seeking a thrilling experience! 💯

I've always known the Three Gorges are beautiful, but the Little Three Gorges are even more beautiful, and the Mini Three Gorges are even more picturesque, but I always miss them. This time, I decided to go to the Little Three Gorges on a whim. The boat sailed through the Little Three Gorges (Daning River) to the entrance of the Mini Three Gorges (Madu River), then transferred to a smaller boat to enter the Little Three Gorges. After exploring the Little Three Gorges, I returned to the larger boat back to Wushan County. The entire journey took about four hours.
The kids had a lot of fun. The ticket included the Little Three Gorges and the Small Three Gorges. Although there were a lot of sales pitches, they were not forced and I felt it was okay. The only difference was that the canyon was not as steep after the water level rose, and the viewing experience was lower. There is no need to rush to the second floor. You can go to the first floor platform later. You can see the front and it may be better.

Project 816, a national megaproject in the 1970s and 1980s, rivaled other national projects like the Three Gorges Dam and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. From the moment you step into the cave entrance, you're struck by the awe-inspiring experience, earning it the nickname "The Three Gorges in the Cave." As you delve deeper, you'll increasingly appreciate the immense effort put into building such a monumental project by over 60,000 builders, given the technological limitations of the time. The only downside is that it's a bit lacking in interest for children, but otherwise, it's excellent.
There is nothing to say about the construction, after all, it is a top-secret project of the country, but the explanation is really average, and the total effective time is only about 15 minutes. . . . . . .

The Earth's Core Valley is generally very good. The overall tour route is very simple and easy. The scenery along the way is beautiful, with surging canyon streams, steep mountains, strange-shaped rocks, and fragrant air. It is especially suitable for family visits. The celebrity check-in spots are very interesting, and the overall duration is appropriate.
I brought my family here to play during the National Day holiday. The park shuttle bus is very convenient. Except for a section of the Bayan Ancient Road, the rest of the route is basically very flat. The scenery along the way is very beautiful, with canyons, mountain streams, strong winds and high waves, and waves crashing on the shore. Walking in the mountains through the clouds, you can feel the wonders of nature. After walking across the magic carpet in the air and then walking a distance, you will reach the sightseeing elevator, and then you will reach the shuttle bus.

I went there during the May Day holiday. There were relatively more people and cars, but the scenic area was well managed and everything was in good order. The floating bridge on the car was quite safe, not as exciting as I imagined. Instead, speeding across the stream made the adults and children in the car scream constantly. The scenery was nice👍
This "dancing" canyon road, nestled amidst the emerald waters, creates a stunning landscape painting in every snap. Walking on the water, swimming within the painting itself is a truly creative experience, and with no need to backtrack, it's definitely worth the experience. The ticket price is a bit pricey, though.

Stepping into the Chongqing Museum is like stepping into the long history of Ba-Yu. Bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties bear the patina of time, relics from the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression tell of wartime, and the Three Gorges rocks still bear the marks of rivers. The exhibition hall design cleverly integrates the mountain city's topography, and every step tells a story. A swipe across the digital screen brings millennia of culture to life, and you'll leave feeling unsatisfied, filled with a new appreciation for this land.
Would you like me to compile a list of the Chongqing Museum's core exhibits and recommend the best time to visit?
The Chongqing China Three Gorges Museum is located at 236 Renmin Road, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, adjacent to the Chongqing Municipal People's Government and facing the Chongqing People's Great Hall. It is one of the first national first-class museums, jointly established by the central and local governments. It is a comprehensive museum dedicated to the collection, preservation, research, exhibition, and dissemination of Ba-Yu culture, Three Gorges culture, rear-area anti-Japanese war culture, immigrant culture, and united front culture.

It's a five-star scenic area. The road there is a winding mountain road, but the road conditions are good. The scenic area's transportation facilities are well-planned and constructed. The scenery at the lowest point of the canyon is average, but there are monkeys playing on the mountain and things may fall down.
The environment is quiet, the scenic area is large, and there are few people. It's very relaxing to wander around the mountain. It's also very nice to take pictures because there are not many people around, which makes it very easy to take pictures. The Great Rift Valley is also very impressive. It's definitely worth a visit.

Great place. We spent a wonderful morning. It was just 8 people on deck. Nice view
Definitely recommend doing this. Was so much fun. I’m from the UK and need to stress that THE ENTRANCE IS ON 1F of raffles city mall and was hard to find as a tourist, so go early to make sure you find it! There is no specific time for your tickets, but would recommend going up at sundown so you get views of the city in the day and in the night. Handy info for tourists: the glass bottom area is free (currently as of August 2025), the lockers are free for bags and wallets etc but are small so don’t bring much with you, there are big lockers but the system is in Chinese so be prepared to translate it all. The skywalk is a separate price from just going up to the observation deck and is worth paying for as there’s not much price difference. You can take a phone out and up with you so you can take photos. You can get the iconic sitting down shot halfway down the platform don’t crowd the turning as people often do this, and if you go further down you will have more time for photos! Enjoy
