Encountering Xiahaoli: The Charm of Slope and Steps at Entrance No. 3

Entrance No. 3 of Xiahaoli marks the starting point of the unique character of Chongqing, the mountain city. Rows of neat steps stretch upward like veins through which the city reaches for the sky. The prominent "Xiahaoli" signage at the entrance stands out amidst the lush greenery, exuding both artistic flair and cultural charm. Here, aged brick-paved pathways and wooden eaves coexist with striking modern art installations, such as the exaggerated oversized orange sphere. Strolling through the area, one can gaze up at the dappled shadows of the greenery and look down to see the cautionary words "No Delivery Within 50 Meters" carved into the stone slabs. This seamless blend of the old neighborhood's tranquility and the vibrancy of contemporary life tells the story of the mountain city with every step along the way. #hellohalloween
