Standing on the top of Eling hill gives a 360 degree view of the city. Indulge in winding steps down the hillside through places untraversed by others. Getting lost on one of the many abandoned paths looking over the rivers and city below is a very Chongqing thing to do. #givethanks

Being such a humid city, a small rooftop cafe on Eling hill is bound to be wet on such a night. The wind carried water up the side of the building, leaving me drenched pleasantly on the temperate night. The Eling tower on top of the hill glowed as the wind wiped water through the air between us. Definitely a night to remember #givethanks

It was a trip to Chongqing, China 🇨🇳It is a city like no other, built on mountains ⛰️ filled with mist, and packed with neon-lit skyscrapers, historic streets, and stunning river views. We explored some of the best spots for photography 📸 and found the perfect times to visit for incredible shots. We started our adventure at Hongya Cave, one of the most famous spots in Chongqing 😍 The best time to visit is just before sunset 🌇 so you can capture both daytime and nighttime shots. As the sun ☀️ goes down, the cave-like structures light up with golden neon, creating a scene straight out of a cyberpunk movie. The reflections on the Jialing River make the photos even more stunning ✨ We also walked over to Chaotianmen Dock, where the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers meet. At night 🌙 the city skyline glows beautifully, and we highly recommend taking a river cruise for an incredible perspective of Chongqing’s illuminated skyline 🏙️ 📍88 Jiabin Rd, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, China, 400010 Chongqing’s Liziba Monorail Station is an absolute must for photographers 📸 We arrived early ⛅️ to capture the monorail train passing through a residential building, a sight you won’t see anywhere else! The train emerges from the 6th floor of an apartment complex, making it a truly unique urban shot 🙌 We also visited Eling Park, which offers one of the best panoramic views of Chongqing. We went around 5 PM so we could capture both sunset 🌇 and the city lights turning on. From the observation deck, we got a breathtaking 360-degree view of Chongqing’s mountain-like skyline ⛰️ 📍39 Liziba Zheng St, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, China, 400060 We also stepped back in time at Ciqikou Ancient Town, a well-preserved old town with narrow alleyways, traditional wooden 🪵 buildings, and beautiful hanging lanterns. The best time for photos is in the morning ☀️ before the crowds arrive. The tea houses 🏘️ and local street food stalls made for great cultural shots 📸 📍Ciqikou, Shapingba District, Chongqing, China, 400030 Chongqing is a dream destination for photographers, with its futuristic skyline, historic streets, and natural wonders 🙌🙌🙌 #discoverchina #travel #Vacation

🚗Suggested Route: Yangtze River Cableway (South Station) - Jiefangbei - Kuixing Tower - Daijia Alley Trail - Liangjiang Ferry - Danzishi Old Street - Longmenhao Old Street - Nanbin Road ✅There are so many people queuing for the Yangtze River Cableway at the north station. Taking it from the south station will save you a lot of time. Remember to book in advance! ✅Walk from Jiefangbei to Kuixing Tower, then down Daijia Alley Trail to the Liangjiang Ferry pier. It's an easy downhill walk (I have to say, the Liangjiang Ferry is a much better experience than the Yangtze River Cableway!). - Getting off the light rail on the 7th floor, you have to take five long escalators up to finally reach the exit, only to find yourself on a street on the 3rd floor. Entering Chongqing is like stepping from a three-dimensional world into an eight-dimensional one. - Endless ups and downs, malfunctioning map navigation... 500 meters on your phone might mean a long, 45-degree slope followed by four flights of stairs. Here, it feels like two time-spaces exist, where you can be on the 1st and 22nd floors simultaneously. - Take the Yangtze River Cableway, crossing the river, soaring through the clouds, and journeying through a forest of steel. Hop on the Liangjiang Ferry, and with the wind of the Jialing River, perhaps you can meet your longing.

Chongqing, an 8D city surrounded by flowers, is full of charm. Walking on the streets of Huangjueping, the bougainvillea on the graffiti wall is in full bloom, and each flower seems to be telling the vitality and enthusiasm of this city. The pear trees along the mountain city trails, with clusters of white flowers, contrast beautifully with the quaint green tile stone walls, adding a touch of gentleness and tenderness to the city. Coming to Eling Park is like being in a fairyland. The cherry blossoms there are in full bloom under the warm spring sun, like pink clouds, intoxicating. Wandering in it, it feels like being in a dreamy fairy tale world, 🧚‍♂️ making people linger. Whether it is the warm bougainvillea, the gentle pear blossoms, or the romantic cherry blossoms, they are all blooming in the streets and alleys of Chongqing, adding unique color and romance to the city. In Chongqing, every encounter with flowers is an affectionate dialogue with this city. Every flower is writing a story about Chongqing. They are the unique footnotes of this city and the infinite romance in our hearts.

Eling Park Travel Guide Pre-trip Preparations Eling Park is open year-round and free of charge. The recommended visiting time is 2–4 hours. The scenery is most charming in spring and summer when the park is lush with trees and flowers. Check the weather in advance and choose a sunny day for your visit to take beautiful photos. Take Metro Line 1 to Eling Station, exit from Exit 2, and walk for a few minutes to reach the park. Tour Route After entering the park, head to the Kansheng Tower, the park's landmark building. Ascend the 7-story tower and gaze into the distance to take in the panoramic beauty of the mountain city. Capture the scattered buildings and the winding Yangtze and Jialing Rivers with your camera. Descend from Kansheng Tower and stroll along the winding paths to reach the Exiang Villa. The villa retains its ancient architectural style and offers a tranquil atmosphere. Wandering among the pavilions and towers feels like traveling back in time, making it a perfect spot for fans of ancient styles to take photos. Continue to the Lotus Pond, where lotus leaves spread across the water's surface. When the lotus flowers are in full bloom, the pond is filled with fragrance. The winding corridors along the pond offer a charming view reminiscent of a water town in southern China. Follow the Lotus Pond and pass by the Feige Pavilion, a uniquely designed building perched on the cliff. Here, you can enjoy the river view while feeling the refreshing mountain breeze. Park Facilities The park has several rest pavilions and benches where you can take a break. There are also small shops selling drinks and snacks to replenish your energy. In addition, the park is shaded by lush trees, providing ample shade even on hot summer days. Nearby Food After your visit, try some of the local delicacies.
