3/5
It is totally touristic attraction, crowded and noisy, selling regular touristic colorful but useless stuff. Sichuan style street food is obviously spicy, but delicious, so if you decided to come here, better try one. This place is usually highly recommended, but to be honest, you won't loose much if you'll decide not to visit it. Just one of checkpoints in Chongqing. Yes, it has its charming atmospher in certain degree, but if you are expecting to dive into 'Chinese historic village', better not😉

    40 minutes by boat, the scenery on both sides is good, that is, the two stations are notified to get on the bus, and the one is told. The pick-up bus has also passed. The arrangement is not right and not detailed. The bear children are too many now, unruly, noisy and running around, wearing shoes and kicking people, can't say, parents are protecting and waiting for social discipline.

    The ancient town of the mountain city is different. Although there are many people, the scenery on the mountain is really beautiful. The ancient town without a small bridge and flowing water is still beautiful.
