Welcome to Chongqing, the cyberpunk city

My chinese familiar once told me that Chongqing is the second most popular tourist destination in China after Beijing. And now I understand why. I was so impressed by this city! Endless skyscrapers, dramatic elevation changes, crisscrossing roads — how was this city even built? It’s a true marvel! I only spent two days here, but I would have gladly stayed longer. 📍My itinerary Day 1: • Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street • Harmay beauty store (very unique design) • Chongqing Art Gallery • Raffles City Observation Deck • Hongyadong Day 2: • Huguang Guild Hall • Yangtze River Cableway • Liziba Station • Chongqing Grand Theatre • Jiangbeizui Riverside Park 🏠Hotel recommendation: I stayed at Glenview ITC Plaza — an excellent 5-star hotel with panoramic city views and a great breakfast, all at a reasonable price. #localguides #historicallandmarks #chongqing #china #chinatrip #asiatrip #photography #scenicspotguide #architecture #instagramworthydestinations

Chongqing- the definition of a sprawling city is a great spot to spend a weekend. whether it’s the good food, the ancient temples or just the utter chaos that is walking around the city - it’s a great city break. the taxi rank is by the airport, the other 2 spots are at arhat temple in the middle of the city - 10/10 recommend. oh, don’t take the cable car, it’s a long wait and for something that you don’t need to be on it to see - in fact the view from the bridge itself, or the subway line that runs across it is just as good without the wait or the over expensive ticket price. #scenicspotguide#awesomepic#deliciousfood #instagrammable #chongqing #china

Hongya Cave

Hongya Cave (洪崖洞) is one of Chongqing’s most iconic attractions, combining traditional stilt-house architecture with a bustling hub of eateries, shops, and teahouses. Perched along the cliffs of the Jialing River, the 11-story complex recreates the charm of old Bayu-style dwellings. When night falls, its golden lights illuminate the entire façade, creating a spectacular scene often compared to the world of Spirited Away. To get the best perspective, I crossed to the opposite riverbank, a spot highly favored by photography enthusiasts. From there, you can take in the full panorama of Hongya Cave glowing against the city skyline — stilted wooden structures cascading down the cliff, framed by modern skyscrapers in the background. It’s the postcard-perfect image of Chongqing and a must for any traveler. #historicallandmarks#localguides#旅行酷体验#景点拍照指南#旅行灵感
