Chongqing Scenery

First time in Chongqing and I already got dizzy walking! The 3D magic city truly lives up to its reputation with endless slopes and stairs everywhere🤯. But don't worry, here's the ultimate mountain city walking route to help you explore Chongqing efficiently~ 🚶🏻♀️3-Day Intensive Walking Route Day 1: Liberation Monument → Bayi Delicious Street → Yangtze River Cableway → Hongya Cave Night View The Liberation Monument and Bayi Delicious Street are connected - perfect for lunch; Book Yangtze River Cableway tickets online in advance as holiday queues are terrifying; For Hongya Cave, go to the roadside at the bottom for panoramic shots with fewer crowds! Day 2: Liziba Light Rail Through Buildings → Eling 2nd Factory → Mountain City Trail → One Tree on Nanshan Must visit Eling before Liziba❗️This way it's all downhill; Visit Mountain City Trail at dusk for breathtaking sunset views; Bring a jacket for Nanshan night view as mountain winds get chilly~ Day 3: Ciqikou Ancient Town → Sichuan Fine Arts Institute Huxi Campus → Traffic Teahouse Ciqikou is very commercialized - just browse casually; Huxi Campus's colorful terraces are perfect for photos; Must experience the authentic old teahouse atmosphere at Traffic Teahouse! 🔥Must-Try Food List ✅Liberation Monument Food Street: Ghost Crispy Pork, Dragon Claw Chicken, One Yogurt Cow ✅Hongya Cave: Shuizhu Qingchuan Hotpot, Gua Xixi Hotpot ✅Nanshan: Nanshan Spring Chicken (reservation recommended) 💡Practical Tips ⚠️Chongqing metro is super convenient - get a transportation card ⚠️Navigation apps often fail here - ask locals for directions ⚠️Wear comfortable sneakers or you'll regret it after 20,000 steps daily

Hotel stay in jiefangbei , its cheaper.
