Great places to go during the Dragon Boat Festival ⛱️A guide to a multi-day trip to Chongqing!

#Dragon Boat Festival good places 🌟 Trip Highlights 1️⃣ Concentrated essence of the mountain city: check in at Jiefangbei, Hongyadong, and Liziba light rail passing through the building! 2️⃣ Avoid the crowds: Locals’ private camera spots + niche routes! 3️⃣ Eat your way through Chongqing: a guide to air-raid shelter hotpot, river view cliff hotpot, and street snacks! 🍲 Food Red and Black List ✅ Must-eat list: Hotpot: Dongtingxian (a time-honored brand in the air-raid shelter), Jiangfeng Huozao (with river views and cliffs), Tianbang Laohuopot (with a community atmosphere). Snacks: Jiucun roasted brain flower, Shibati Dengdeng noodles, and Bayi delicious street ghost crispy meat. Jianghu cuisine: No. 66 Mafangwan, Yangji Longfu (spicy and delicious chicken). ❌ Avoid: "Golden Plums" (pigmented fruits) and smoking ice cream (hurts your tongue) at the entrance of the scenic area! 📸 Popular photography tips Hongyadong: Take a panoramic photo of the middle section of Qiansimen Bridge and use a telephoto lens to compress the sense of space! Baixiangju: The corridor of Building No. 3 frames the Yangtze River Cableway + Raffles, retro filter + wide-angle lens 1. Longmenhao Old Street: Take a silhouette shot of the stone door frame under the Dongshuimen Bridge, it looks so high-end! Dressing suggestions: hot girl outfit + Martin boots (no need to feel tired when climbing uphill), or retro cheongsam with old street view! 💡 Locals’ hidden recommendations Transportation: Wear flat shoes! Choose Didi if you want to take a taxi, as the taxi may take a detour. Accommodation: Near Jiefangbei, it is recommended to stay at S Hotel, which is a 10-minute walk to Hongyadong. Niche experience: Jianchuan Museum's "Battle in the Sky" MR project, virtual battleships fighting aliens is super cool! "The romance of Chongqing is the fireworks of the light rail passing through the building, the boiling rivers and lakes in the shelter, and the 1st floor that you meet when you turn around from the 22nd floor. There is no 8D magic that can be conquered by navigation, only surprises that come with every step."✨ Tags: #Chongqing Travel Guide #Hongyadong Night View #Chongqing Hotpot #Niche Travel Destinations #Mountain City Check-in

Hongya Cave

The city of Chongqing really makes people “get lost” a little: the layers of architecture are filled with the feeling of a whimsical world day and night. This trip mainly revolves around Hong Ya Cave Folk Scenery Area Explosion + Stay FunGee Joyful River View Hotel, Hong Ya Cave is clearly layered, under the light and shadow becomes "realistic version of Thousand and One Nights", every corner is worth slowly strolling; A sneak peek of the highlights of the trip 1. Night view of Hongya Cave! Not only Dajiang Hualan, but also different floors overlooking the Jialing River, the city skyline 2. Stay at FunGee Joyful River View Hotel, smart facilities, window views, attentive service 3. The itinerary can be completed on foot, with Hongya Cave, Jiefangbei and Pedestrian Street within easy reach Hong Ya Cave one-day check-in recommendation Hongyadong Folk Scenery Area (No. 88, Jialingjiang Binjiang Road, Chaotianmen Street, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, open all day long) is known as one of the most iconic attractions in Chongqing! It is recommended to enter from the lower level entrance and go up the stairs. Each floor has a different angle to enjoy the view of the Jialing River, especially at night when the lights are lit up, the atmosphere is super romantic! 1. Almost every floor is equipped with a snack bar, souvenirs and specialty souvenirs to slowly sweep the streets. 2. The highest floor overlooks the entire river view, whether checking in or taking pictures beyond the video! Note that different positions can produce different compositions. 3. It is recommended to come back at night and walk again to feel the sea of ​​​​lights in Hongya Cave and the reflection on the river. FunGee Joyful River View Hotel Experience Sharing 📍Address: 21st Floor, Building C, Goldman Sachs Wealth Creation Center, 113 Binjiang Road, Chongqing The hotel is right next to Hongya Cave. It is super convenient to walk to Jiefangbei Business District and Chaotianmen!   The best thing is that you can see the night view of the Jialing River outside the window, the room facilities are very smart (voice control, free drinks, small refrigerator), and free popcorn, ice cream and good night porridge. The breakfast is super sincere, especially freshly cooked Chongqing noodles. I'd be sorry if I don't eat. (Breakfast is open until 1pm! No need to get up early is OK) There is also a free washing and drying service, which is super courteous to long-distance tourists. The staff service is enthusiastic and proactive, will help immediately if needed, suitable for families, couples, girlfriends to live together. The only small suggestion is that the sound insulation can be improved again (some guests give advice) and you can ask about the room type specifications when booking in advance. Practical itinerary tips 1. Hongya cave up and down different locations, enjoy the scenery from different angles, it is recommended to walk up from the low level and then back to the outside, layers of check-in, the most beautiful effect. 2. The evening light show is lively and crowded, if you want to avoid the crowd in the morning or afternoon first walk, then in the evening again to take the night view. 3. The hotel comes with a washing machine, perfect for long journey travelers. 4. If you want to stroll several celebrity attractions at once, there are also Liberation Monument Pedestrian Street and Chaotian Gate next door, all of which can be covered by foot. Transportation guide The hotel is close to the main city area, easy to take a taxi / subway; most recommended to walk directly from the hotel to the major attractions, in the evening after the night view and then walk back to the accommodation, warm and comfortable. Food recommendations In addition to the hotel breakfast Chongqing noodles, each floor of Hongya Cave has authentic cuisine, be sure to try Chongqing skewers, sour and spicy noodles, nearby Liberation Monument also has a hot pot old brand, taste buds can not stop! #Hongyadong night view #Chongqing photo guide #Jiangjing hotel recommendation #Chongqing food #practical travel itinerary tips
