Chongqing as hot as her hotpot 🔥🥘🌶️

Just spent a dreamy weekend in Chongqing — a vibrant city with jaw-dropping night views, spicy eats, and some of China’s friendliest locals 🌃🔥 Top Spots to Visit in Chongqing 1. Stay: Shouxiang· Hotel in Hongyadong, Jie Fangbei Address: No. 8, 14th Floor, 222 Xinhua Road, Jiefangbei Street, Yuzhong District This is the ultimate base for your city adventure! You’ll love the ultra-clean rooms, super modern feel, and absolutely killer night views right from your window. Perfect for night-owl cityscape photography or just soaking in Chongqing’s electric energy. 2. Must-Try Food: Hotpot at PIPAYUAN Address: Wenfeng Zhengjie Old Factory Jinzhu Village You’re not in Chongqing if you skip hotpot 😋. PIPAYUAN has the brothy spice you dream about — and dipping in with locals is half the fun. (If you’re not used to Sichuan spice, ask for the “mild” option — trust me!) 3.
