Discover the Magic of Chongqing – The Mountain City by the River!

Chongqing, known as China’s “Mountain City” and “City of Bridges,” is a vibrant destination full of charm, culture, and jaw-dropping views. Whether you're into neon lights, riverside strolls, or historical walks, Chongqing has it all! 1. Hongyadong (洪崖洞) The most iconic spot in Chongqing! This 11-story stilt-style building complex lights up like a fairytale at night. Overlooking the Jialing River, it’s packed with shops, street food, and unbeatable photo ops—especially when the lights reflect on the river. 2. Mountain City Trail (山城步道) Explore Chongqing’s unique terrain through this scenic walking trail connecting the upper and lower parts of the city. Winding through neighborhoods, old staircases, and viewpoints, it’s a great way to feel the soul of the city. 3. Qiansimen Bridge (千厮门大桥) This iconic red bridge connects Jiefangbei CBD to Hongyadong. It offers panoramic views of the rivers and skyline—especially beautiful at night with the city lights glowing across the water. Other Must-Visit Places: Liziba Station: Where the train passes through a building—yes, literally! Eling Park: A peaceful hilltop park with panoramic views of the city and rivers. Yangtze and Jialing River Cruise: See Chongqing’s famous bridges and nightscape from the water. Ciqikou Ancient Town: A preserved Ming–Qing era town filled with snacks, souvenirs, and local vibes. Whether day or night, Chongqing is full of surprises—built on cliffs, full of flavors, and glowing with life. #ChongqingVibes #HongyadongNights #MountainCityTrails #CityOfBridges #ChongqingSkyline #ChinaHiddenGems #TrainThroughBuilding #RiversideMagic #CiqikouCharm #ExploreChongqing
