The Chaotianmen Square was built in 1998, and the five big characters we see in front of it were personally inscribed by Jiang Zemin, the then General Secretary of the Communist Party of China. The back of the inscription records the construction process of the square.

Continuing to walk to the center of the square, we can see a 5-meter diameter sign with a 1.5-centimeter diameter dot embedded in the middle. This is the zero kilometer mark of Chongqing, a symbol of the city center. The "zero kilometer" symbol in China has been determined to be located in the middle of the central axis of Tiananmen Square, while Shanghai has set the zero kilometer at People's Square.

In the past, one could take a boat here to travel to various places. Now, Chaotianmen Pier is also the starting point for the Two Rivers and Three Gorges tours. Whenever night falls, boarding a boat from the pier here allows one to experience the extraordinary momentum and beautiful scenery of Chongqing's "traveling thousands of miles to reach the vast expanse".

The lobby is used for various exhibitions, surrounded by the Chongqing local specialty souvenir area and famous local snacks, including traditional time-honored brands such as Bafangpin, Yuji Laopuzi, Wanqiantang, Tang Xiaozu, etc. Therefore, after visiting the entire scenic area of Chongqing Raffles City, you can also take away the most memorable Chongqing flavor here.
