From one legend to countless legends

Time flies. Chongqing, which has undergone several changes in the course of history, keeps pace with the times and has re-evaluated the Twelve Scenic Spots of Ancient Ba-Yu three times. It has also continuously expanded the natural, cultural, urban construction and other aspects of its landscape connotation, allowing the "Twelve Scenic Spots of Ba-Yu" to continue and be passed on in the new era, becoming a famous cultural business card of Chongqing. Among them, the mother city of Yuzhong, which gathers the "four sceneries" of the "Twelve Sceneries of Bayu", condenses the essence of mountain city, river city and city that never sleeps. It is like a shining pearl, stirring up the unique scenery of mountains, rivers and humanities. The surging Yangtze River and Jialing River meet here, accumulating and nurturing Chongqing's cultural heritage and being the "root" and "source" of Chongqing. Today, the comprehensively upgraded Yuzhong District is constantly accelerating its construction from the depths of historical memory, geographical location and cultural environment to showcase the new look of Yuzhong. A new "Yuzhong Panoramic Atlas" was derived from the "Twelve Scenic Spots of Bayu", allowing the existing and more emerging Yuzhong scenic spots to once again come into the eyes of the world and witness the unparalleled romance and beauty of the mother city of Chongqing.

Jialing River

The Jialing River in Chongqing is an unmissable photo spot in the city. The scenery along the coast blends Chongqing’s charming mountains and rivers with the bustling city atmosphere. It is especially suitable for strolling or taking a cruise to enjoy the neon and city views on the other side. There are also popular attractions Liberation Monument, Hongya Cave, and the second factory, a gathering place for hipsters, which connects an essential Chongqing photo-taking route. Recommended route gameplay: From the Jialing Riverside Road, take a slow walk along the riverside to overlook the river and the brilliant lights on both sides. It is recommended to arrive before evening and wait until nightfall when the lights of Hongya Cave are lit for the most shocking visual effect. Then walk to Liberation Monument to feel the commercial vitality of Chongqing. Finally, go to “Factory Two” to take trendy photos and enjoy a specialty cafe or small shop. Must-play items: 1. Photography on Jialing River Binjiang Road — Shooting river views and night scenes, especially the background of Hongya Cave at night. 2. Boat Night Cruise — You can opt for a Jialing River cruise to enjoy the city night and the unique mountain city skyline. 3. Second Factory Cultural and Creative Park—feel the cultural and artistic atmosphere of Chongqing, check-in fashionistas must-visit handicraft shop, life pavilion. 4. Liberation Monument — Iconic attraction, shopping district shopping and food exploration. 5. Hongya Cave — The rich Chongqing-style stilt building and night light show are definitely a must-see background in Chongqing. Check-in location recommendation: The section of Jialing Riverside Road near Hongyadong is the most popular photo spot, with river water, stilt buildings and city reflections in the background. The big screen in Liberation Monument Square is also the first choice for taking pictures at landmarks; the old factory buildings and graffiti walls in the park of the second factory are most suitable for taking hipster photos. Attraction Tips: 1. The Jialing River is open all day all year round, and it is recommended to visit at dusk or night for the most beautiful views. 2. Cruise boats are generally busier in the evenings and it is recommended to book seats in advance on trip.com. 3. Hong Cliff Cave and Liberation Monument are more crowded during the holidays and it is recommended to avoid peak hours. 4. The second factory building is more scattered, it is best to reserve time to slowly explore, stroll the characteristic small shops. 5. There are ramps along the river, free walking need to wear comfortable shoes, rainy days pay attention to non-slip. Notes: Some areas along the riverside and Hongya Cave are crowded at night. Pay attention to safety when taking pictures and don't get too close to the edge of the river bank. It is recommended to arrange your trip in advance during peak hours.
