Go to Chongqing!

Chongqing has become an incredibly popular tourist city in recent years, with light rail passing through buildings; The first floor you are on may also be the top floor of the neighboring building... In short, there are too many pitfalls and strategies about this city on the internet! With the arrival of summer vacation, a wave of travel has begun again. How should I play when I first arrive in Chongqing? I filtered through a massive amount of information and found the strategy I wanted. Free a summer and come to the mountain city to explore! The "taste" here is hot pot and the dazzling night scenery of Hongyadong, both of which are the most unique imprints of Chongqing city. Take you on a trip, go travel now!

Follow the movie to visit the Goose Ridge Second Factory

In recent years, Chongqing has not only become a popular tourist destination, but also a popular filming location for movies, from the earlier "Hot Pot Hero" and "Passing Through Your World" to the recent "Young You" and so on. For me, aside from the plot and ratings of the movie, what impressed me the most were the various scenes in "Passing by Your World", and the second factory in E Ling was one of them.

The Erling Second Factory Cultural and Creative Park is a free to visit neighborhood, and when you see the convenience store at the entrance, you can see that the scene from the movie is correct. The scene here is very artistic. If you want to check in for the same rooftop in the movie, you have to pay an additional 30 yuan. If you don't have any special feelings, taking photos everywhere is already very beautiful.

There are a lot of delicious food to experience in the cultural and creative park of Erchang. I have to say that Chongqing is too friendly to me. I found an online celebrity store called "Dawang deep-fried dough sticks", ordered a very exquisite set meal, and took photos before eating~

Spend 20 yuan to ride the Yangtze River Cableway once

I think the only one that can transform transportation into a popular tourist experience is the Yangtze River Cableway in Chongqing. I came to experience it after finishing dinner at the Erling Second Factory. We took the cableway from Shangxin Road Station, where there are fewer tourists. It costs 20 yuan to get to Xinhua Road Station across the street. It is said that in the past, cable cars were as cheap as buses, but now their functions have been replaced by bridges. However, they can still continue to shine and heat up as a tourist experience, which is also a good inheritance

When taking the cableway, it is actually very crowded. It is best to stand on the side for a better viewing effect. The cable appears to sink in a U-shape, but it does not experience weightlessness at a slower speed, so tourists who are afraid of heights can still ride on it. If you want to shoot the cableway, I think the perspective of Xinhua Road Station is better. You can walk down the small path next to the station's bathroom, pass through a small door, and there is a tea room. Ordering a cup of tea on the observation deck can make you more comfortable waiting for the cableway to come over. If you don't want to spend money, it's okay.

Eating hotpot in the alley

If you don't go for an authentic Chongqing hotpot while traveling to Chongqing, you can say that you haven't been there before! Where should I go for hotpot in Chongqing? Many tourists from other places may go to Hongya Cave and Monument to the people's Liberation, but local friends told me that what they found in the alleys in residential areas was eaten by local people. So, I found this restaurant in a corner - Nan Hotpot.

Hotpot originated from the port culture of Chongqing and was initially a relatively common delicacy. Nowadays, many brands package it as very high-end, but in fact, it has lost its inherent flavor. The space of this hotpot restaurant is not large, and the seats are even a bit crowded, but this feeling is the true Chongqing old hotpot. I learned the meaning and correct operation of the "Nine Palace Grid" hotpot on the wall of the hotpot restaurant. I won't go into too much detail about the specific content. Let's take a look at it ourselves!

After learning the correct way to eat Jiugongge hotpot, my friends and I calmly followed the steps of a table of delicious food, like a child who has just learned to write, every stroke is full of ceremony. Perhaps this is the unique feature of Chongqing hotpot, isn't it? If you also want to taste authentic Chongqing hotpot, remember to go to the alleys in residential areas.

Finally, authentic Chongqing hotpot doesn't sell Double-flavor hot pot. If you can't eat spicy food, please order two more bowls of ice powder! The Mein mein ice of Nan Hotpot is a special feature. To be frank, it is very refreshing to put the smoothies in brown sugar water, and it is also very spicy. I ate two bowls, so I would like to recommend it.

Tip: The hot pot restaurant is located in Building 3, Huayuan Wucun, Nan'an District (near the Industry and Trade Station of Metro Line 3). There are quite a few parking lots around, but it's difficult to park by taking advantage of every opportunity. The parking fee is only 5 yuan, which is very cheap.

Stay at Hongyadong Internet Celebrity Hotel

After dinner, I went to the hotel where I checked in, packed my luggage, and went to Hongyadong to squeeze people. So this time, the hotel was set at the Home Inn beside Hongya Cave - Chongqing Monument to the people's Liberation Hongya Cave Pedestrian Street. The hotel is very close to Hongyadong, within walking distance, and there is also a river view room with a 360 degree night view. We strongly recommend this room type.

The intelligent voice assistant can be controlled through voice in the room, and then the TV, curtains, etc. can be turned on and off by shouting the password. When the curtains of the room were pulled open, I was truly amazed. The entire wall was covered in floor to ceiling glass windows, and I could enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jialing River. The Qiansimen Bridge was right next to it. Soaking in the bathtub, I was able to appreciate the scenery.

Because it is a special period to stay in the hotel, I believe everyone, like me, will have some concerns. First Travel Home seems to have also reminded us of this point. All hotels under its umbrella have launched a series of measures called "Trusted Hotels", from the lobby to the elevator to the rooms, equipped with thoughtful disinfectant items. Even the elevator buttons have disposable tissues that can be used to minimize direct contact with others. It's really great!

Appreciating the splendid night scenery at Hongya Cave

When traveling to Chongqing, the night view of Hongyadong must be the highlight. I came from the most popular Monument to the people's Liberation business district in Chongqing. It was clearly walking along the ground, but when it reached Hongya Cave, it became the top floor? This is really a wonderful feeling, so you have to walk down layer by layer to reach the bottom floor for taking photos (because there are too many tourists and it's difficult to wait for the elevator). Walking up the stairs about ten floors is definitely an individual effort, but seeing the scene below is definitely worth it.

Hongyadong is essentially one of the city gates of ancient Chongqing, located at the confluence of the Yangtze River and Jialing River. It is mainly composed of suspended buildings, antique commercial streets and other landscapes. Therefore, in addition to taking photos of the building itself, the commercial street in Hongyadong is also very easy to explore, where you can buy many local specialties and various delicacies.

Do you remember the hotpot I mentioned earlier? It's best not to eat here, as the experience may be compromised. But as a tourist, I inevitably fall out of fashion. Taking a night view just in time for dinner, I naturally had another hot pot here. This red nine grid old hot pot may not have the down-to-earth atmosphere of the previous Nan hot pot, with more exquisite decoration and higher prices, but it still has a good taste. Perhaps Chongqing doesn't have any unappetizing hotpot, does it? Perhaps cities like Chongqing are full of surprises and naturally have distinct differences from other cities, right? I don't know if you have been to Chongqing before. What does Chongqing look like in your eyes?
