Foreword:


I have experienced Hongya Cave in the Sleepless City, tasted local specialty noodles in Chongqing, and watched the light rail crossing through Liziba from afar. I believe that many people, like me, have endless feelings for the city of Chongqing. From the first time to the fourth time, every time I came to Chongqing, I still had an unknown freshness. In the eyes of many people, it is an Internet celebrity city, but in my impression, the mountain city of Chongqing is a particularly delicious city.


There have been many good movies in Chongqing, such as Crazy Rock, Hot Pot Hero, Curiosity Kills the Cat, etc., including the popular movie some time ago: The Teenager You. Each movie allows us to see a different side of Chongqing. However, I didn't come to Chongqing this time to find scenes in movies. It was announced by TOP10 that the most popular attraction was the most popular attraction in Chongqing. As an Internet celebrity city, there was only one attraction on the list. This really attracted my attention. I came to Chongqing before because I was timid and didn't dare to try it. This time, I finally got up the courage to experience another enthusiasm of the city: the Chongqing Ordovician.

This trip changed my impression of it. There was no need to be timid at all. I found that in addition to high-altitude stimulation projects, there were also ski hot springs and bear theaters suitable for the whole family to experience. You could also enjoy the beautiful cliff scenery. It is a scenic spot where you can enjoy yourself regardless of age.


Day1: In order to shoot a popular video with tens of millions of traffic, check in the Ordovician period on the edge of the cliff

The Ordovician is located in Wansheng District, Chongqing City, almost 110 kilometers away from Chongqing's Main City, and it takes about two hours to drive. In fact, there are many ways to get to the Ordovician period from the urban area. I booked a day's round-trip charter bus online one day in advance. Of course, I can drive here by myself. There are even buses to the Ordovician period in downtown Chongqing. Yes, there are so many ways to travel, so you must not miss it when you come to Chongqing during the Ordovician period.

If you didn't look at the guide map of the scenic spot, you wouldn't have known that the Ordovician was such a large area. If you wanted to experience each project, it would be the most reasonable time to arrange two days. The scenic spots are divided into West Gate and Middle Gate. Near the West Gate are high-altitude stimulation projects that are particularly popular when using Douyin. The Middle Gate also has pirate ships, high-altitude speed skating, 360-degree pendulum, and Mengxiong Theater.


The first exciting experience of the middle gate-rocket bungee jumping, jungle leap, high-altitude speed skating, test your courage


The bus is parked at the middle gate of the Ordovician period. There are special Ordovician souvenirs and thick coats rented at the door. Because this is a hill, the temperature is still a little low from afternoon to evening. The visitor center can find out which projects are open that day. What comes into view when you enter the middle gate is bungee jumping. It is not open yet, but its height is relatively low and not as exaggerated as we often see on TV. Therefore, if you want to challenge yourself, you must not miss this project when it opens.

Rocket bungee jumping is also one of the projects I personally recommend. The equipment will bring people around the world to the highest point, and then we will hand it to gravity. After the rapid fall, the traction rope pulls the world back, and it's just going back and forth., stimulating your nerves over and over again, screaming and adrenalin soaring, as passionate as riding a rocket.

There are food streets at the east and west gates of the scenic area. Chongqing noodles, rice noodles, fast food and other varieties are quite rich. Because we set off quite early in the morning, it was already noon when we arrived in the Ordovician. It was better to fill our stomach first and then play slowly. After a bowl of Chongqing noodles, they were resurrected full of blood.


Compared to some other thrilling projects, leaping in the jungle is much easier. You can shuttle between the woods by tying the ropes. Although the distance between the wooden boards is not too far apart, the Ordovician scenic area is halfway up the mountain, so walking on it is still quite nervous. The more important point is that there are several ways to play jungle leap: plum blossom piles, ropes, zip lines, etc., each of which is very exciting. If you bring your children here to play, you can choose the special Children's Happy Valley here.

Ordovician Joy Theater-Watch the wonderful performances of cute bears, from the afternoon to the night


Happy World is a newly opened project in the Ordovician period. There will be wonderful performances every afternoon and evening, which is more suitable for the whole family to experience. Here you can see the wonderful performances of cute bear and enjoy some other unknown surprises.

Short and powerful limbs dance to the music. What is unbelievable is that it can still support its body with its rear paws, and use its front paws and brain to sway with the rhythm like a human being. The surrounding staff and tourists have become supporting roles, and it is currently intoxicated in its hot dancing posture in the c position.

After watching the cute bear dancing in disco, I had to jump myself no matter what. Drinking a glass of wine under the mountain breeze and moonlight at night and listening to the high music is as fun as Chongqing Ninth Street. It is a must-check place for Ordovician nightlife. After jumping off this cliff, you will be the most beautiful kid in this gai.

After experiencing all the projects in Zhongmen, you can take the sightseeing bus from the scenic area to the West Gate, which is about 15 minutes 'walk. The amusement projects at the West Gate should be among the most popular among the Ordovician scenic spots. The cliff swings that were popular on Douyin, the shocking steps by step, and the sky hanging corridor that won the world record are all here.


Ximen Screaming Harvester-hanging corridor in the sky, shocking step by step, terrifying swing, experience the most pleasure in the world


Step by Step Shocking should be something many people are looking forward to playing, but it is also one of the most afraid of. In fact, I first saw this thrilling project that was exciting to my throat when I was using Douyin. Since I am here, I will definitely shoot. Make arrangements. After lining up and putting on protective gear, you can walk at a height of 150 meters. At first, the distance between each of them was only about 0.5 meters. The farther you go, the greater the distance is. The farthest one is actually more than 1 meter. I don't know how the tourists experiencing it feel, but if it were me, my legs would have been out of control long ago. Anyway, I didn't go up to play, so I just took a video next to me. What if it became popular?

Most tourists come to the Ordovician to experience these exciting projects, but the prerequisite is that they need great psychological quality. You may think this is quite easy and simple when you stand on the side and watch it, but you only know how difficult it is when you stand on it yourself. But don't worry. The safety facilities in the scenic area are very good, and there are staff to guide and protect the whole process. So when you come here, you must muster the courage to cross over. You will find yourself really brave.

The Ordovician sky hanging corridor is definitely the most popular and popular project here. In fact, I have visited many scenic spots and experienced many glass plank roads over the years, but none of them can compete with the Ordovician sky hanging corridor. The sky hanging corridor is in the shape of an "A". The bridge deck is paved with transparent glass. The outer overhang is nearly 80 meters and the height reaches more than 300 meters. In 2017, it won the Guinness World Record and is a veritable world's first sky hanging corridor.

There are huge steel bars on both sides of the hanging corridor, so the outer cantilever can reach more than 80 meters. I was lucky when I went there. The entire hanging corridor had just been replaced with brand new glass. Standing on it and looking down, you could clearly see every grass and object at the bottom of the cliff. Although I was a little scared when walking on it, I was more excited. I enjoyed being between heaven and earth and the breeze blowing. What a wonderful and enjoyable moment.


If you really want to play every project in the Ordovician period, it will take about two days to finish. Tourists are relatively good during the week, but on the weekend, there are more people. Some popular events sometimes require a long queue. So, if you have more than two days of travel, you might as well save your time here and slowly experience these exciting projects. The Ordovician Scenic Area has supporting hotels and restaurants, so you can not only enjoy exciting and happy times when you come here, but also feel the peaceful life like a paradise.

Cliff jumping machines are also one of the must-experience projects in Ordovician scenic spots. Although we usually see them in amusement parks or parks, it feels a different feeling here. Think about the abyss next to you. Many tourists were still talking and laughing after the staff adjusted the safety facilities. In an instant, the cliff jumping machine rose rapidly, followed by various screams. Fortunately, the Ordovician cliff jumping machine took not long to rise and fall, otherwise people's hearts really couldn't stand it.

Ximen's thrilling projects were really one after another. When walking in the sky hanging corridor, I saw a person riding a swing on the edge of the cliff. The tourists watching next to me were so scared that they screamed. This was the most worthwhile experience. The most exciting project: the scary swing. This project is also the most popular project for filming Douyin. Since you are here, you must arrange it.

In fact, I have played a similar cliff swing in Fuxi Mountain in Zhengzhou before, but the level of excitement is not as high as here. The Ordovician cliff swings can be divided into several levels based on the weight of tourists. It is said that the maximum difficulty requirement rises to 21 meters. High, when the swing swings out quickly, I feel scared to think about it. However, only by personally experiencing the terrifying cliff swings of the Ordovician period can you feel the unforgettable pleasure of being between heaven and earth.

Step by Step is also a favorite event for tourists. For me, in terms of excitement and thrills, this event is comparable to a cliff swing. There are 4 different ways to play here, each of which is relatively difficult. Although there are staff cheering on the side, the trembling and shaking wooden boards make some people give up before they even start.

Standing next to me and watching other tourists play, I feel a little nervous. If you came to the Ordovician, would you dare to play such a project? If you don't dare to play, you can take a video and make a trembling sound, which makes people feel scared even across the screen.

A joyful journey to regain childlike innocence--merry-go-round, bumper cars, and dream ice and snow kingdom, the whole family is mobilized together


Don't think that the Ordovician tours are only suitable for adults. It is also a paradise for children and the elderly. Carousels, disco turntables, self-controlled aircraft, bumper cars, etc. These are all very suitable for them. So friends who bring their children here no longer have to worry about how to arrange their children's play style.

In the Dream Ice and Snow Kingdom, admiring the beautiful various ice sculptures is a wonderful ice and snow that you can experience without going to the Northeast. It is not exciting and full of enjoyment. The science fiction dream factory, night stone forest and other projects in the scenic area are both educational and adventurous, and are also very suitable for a large family to experience.

Two days in the Ordovician Period is really not a long time, and I personally haven't completely experienced every project. This is a very big regret for this trip to Chongqing, but it also leaves me with a reason to come to Chongqing again in the future.


Day2: Chongqing, it turns out that you and I have the same impression


The Yangtze River Cableway is a large-scale cross-river passenger ropeway designed and manufactured by China. It has been in operation for almost 30 years. I have basically heard stories about Chongqing when I first learned about it.

Line up to wait for the cable car, and then enter the cable car under the command of the staff. The cable car of the Yangtze River Cableway is much larger than the cable cars in many scenic spots today. It can accommodate almost 20-30 people in one carriage. The glass windows in the four directions, front, rear, left and right, all have viewing spaces of varying widths.

The speed of the cable car is faster than expected, especially since the slope is relatively large at the beginning and the sliding speed is also fast, but the smoothness is also quite high. When the cable car started to run, the crowd in the entire carriage began to scream. In fact, there was a sense of excitement in my heart. The opportunity to cross the mountain city and fly across the Yangtze River can only be realized in Chongqing.

The mountain city of Chongqing is indeed a magical city. It has two large urban areas across the Yangtze River. The starting point of the Yangtze River cableway is actually two dilapidated old buildings. It is precisely because of the Yangtze River cableway. Traveling in this way, you can see the changes of Chongqing as a city day and night. Of course, its safety is definitely guaranteed by being able to carry tourists back and forth for decades.


Any city that has its current prosperity must have a place that is gradually lonely. Chaotianmen Wharf is such a place. It can be said that this place truly witnesses the changes of Chongqing between ancient and present times. In the early days, it was also one of the tourist destinations for many tourists. Nowadays, very few tourists come here, except for some merchant ships and cruise ships that dock, but this does not diminish its historical status in my eyes.


Some people can still be seen holding long bamboo sticks and long ropes in their hands in the surrounding area or near the Chaotianmen Wharf in the urban area. Local people in Chongqing call them the Bangbang Army. When Chongqing's transportation was first underdeveloped, water transportation was mainly used. Many traders traded with more goods, so the baton army gradually emerged. It is a bit similar to our pole in the north, but its two ends are tied directly to the goods and then placed on your shoulders. In today's Chongqing, there are many channels for freight transportation, and the fees paid by this method are relatively small. Young people feel that this kind of work is hard and tiring, so there are fewer and fewer baton troops picking goods for a living.


The lonely Chaotianmen Wharf now seems somewhat out of place in the center of bustling Chongqing City. There are towering buildings on both sides of the Yangtze River, but perhaps it is this preserved alternation of the old and the new that makes me really like Chongqing. Of course, Chaotianmen Wharf cannot be said to be useless nowadays. Some boarding and cruise ships passing through Sichuan and Chongqing and surrounding areas also need to stop here. What we know is that we can take cruise ships to visit Wushan and the surrounding areas of Chongqing. There are many wholesale markets near Chaotianmen Wharf. Because of this, it has become one of the busiest places in the whole of Chongqing City.


We will see clubs or chambers of commerce in many domestic cities and Southeast Asian countries. Early in some cities, foreign merchants built places for better development. In fact, it has been preserved in many cities in China, and the Huguang Guild Hall in Chongqing is one of them.

The Huguang Guild Hall in Chongqing has a long history. It was built during the Qianlong period and was later restored during the Daoguang period. Today, it retains the Guangdong Guild Hall, Jiangnan Guild Hall, Lianghu Guild Hall, Jiangxi Guild Hall and four theater buildings, including Guangdong Guild Hall and Qi 'an Guild Hall. Although it is located in the center of a lively and bustling city, such a building group also seems to have a unique beauty.

Huguang Guild Hall has a history of more than 300 years. Walking through the courtyard, you can find that all the buildings are very special and extremely complete. It is not easy to retain them to this day. There is a small exhibition hall at the entrance of the guild hall, which tells the past and present life of the Huguang Guild Hall in the form of pictures, texts and videos.

In fact, I have been to Huguang Guild Hall twice. It is really a very nice place. Especially to avoid the popular tourist times, look at the buildings left over by the years here and listen to the tranquility of every place here. The mottled and mossy walls fill this place with a thick sense of history. Walking from this part of the courtyard to the other end of the courtyard may take a long time, because there are too many places to look back and look forward to along the way.

If you can stay here for more time, you will definitely find that the architectural characteristics here are somewhat different. The interior and courtyard are designed in Jiangnan style gardens, and each courtyard is basically separated by only one wall. You can still see the theater building left behind in the Huguang Guild Hall. The mountains, rivers, birds and birds carved on it are lifelike and lifelike. This also shows that the craftsmen of long ago had superb carving skills.

Huguang Guild Hall is a representative of the architectural art of southern China during the Ming and Qing Dynasties in China. It is also a miniature of Chongqing's commercial prosperity in history. It is precisely because of the various opportunities brought to Chongqing by businessmen from all over the world at the earliest stage that Chongqing can have its own status and influence in many cities over the years.


Naturally, you can't miss the night view here when you come to Chongqing. The night view here is known as Little Hong Kong. At this time, the surrounding towering buildings have all turned on with lights. Chongqing is really lively at night, with bustling crowds. Among the many buildings, the most distinctive one should be this Chongqing Art Museum. Although I didn't enter the museum. Visiting, it's amazing to see such an appearance.

Because I came to Chongqing, I still slowed down and slowly felt the charm of the mountain city. The Hongya Cave in the distance has now been replaced with golden exterior, forming a unique contrast with the modern buildings behind it. This is the impression of the mountain city in my heart. During the day, I can see the charm of the fusion of the new city and the old buildings, and at night I stand beside the Jialing River and enjoy the dimly lit night view.

This is Chaotianmen Wharf at night, and it is dark. Only the passing cruise ships dotted the place.


Day3: The mountain city of Chongqing, the night when I miss you


When I go to any city, I always like to visit local museums, such as the History Museum in Shaanxi, the Forbidden City in Beijing, etc. In my eyes, I want to understand the past and present of this city. There are detailed interpretations there, and even some things we have never heard of before and learned in textbooks. The museum is a living history textbook. It may be pictures, videos, or just paragraphs of text, but only with in-depth understanding and experience can we understand it.

Chongqing China Three Gorges Museum is located in the center of Chongqing City. It is integrated with People's Square and Chongqing People's Auditorium. This museum was established in 1951. At that time, it was not its current name to the public. It was called Southwest Museum. In 2000, with the approval of the General Office of the State Council, it was officially named: Chongqing China Three Gorges Museum. When you walk into the museum, you will be attracted by every cultural relic preserved here. They seem to tell us their stories from afar.

To understand the cultural roots of Bayu, we must trace back to more than 3000 years ago. Many cultural relics left from the Stone Age and Bronze Age are collected in the museum. When I saw these exhibits with my own eyes, I was still impressed by the wisdom of my ancestors. Every cultural relic was so beautifully made. Not only were the words and patterns on the utensils carved lifelike, but I also believed that modern technology may not be able to achieve it.

In fact, I still have feelings for bronzes, because my hometown Baoji is known as the hometown of bronzes and the birthplace of Western Qin Dynasty. There are countless bronzes unearthed in Baoji, and there is also a Bronze Ware Museum. It is the only museum in China named after bronzes. It displays bronzes of different eras and uses. The treasure of the museum: He Zun, is also a masterpiece among them, because it was found in He Zun, the bronze ware when Chinese words first appeared in history.

The Three Gorges Museum of China in Chongqing, like other museums, displays on different themes. Four themed exhibition areas include the magnificent Three Gorges, ancient Bayu, the Anti-Japanese War, and the Road to the City. Visiting from the first floor can gradually understand Chongqing's past and present life. The magnificent Three Gorges and the ancient Bayu tell the story of the earliest changes in this land, and the exhibition halls in the latter two parts describe the modern characters of Chongqing people very clearly. In fact, I believe many people who have been to Chongqing can feel that the people in this city are very different from many places in China. What impressed me most is that the people living here always have a Jianghu atmosphere, including their straightforward character and enthusiastic attitude.

In the exhibition hall during the Anti-Japanese War, you can see many photos of Chongqing's early cities, including people and scenery. Compare Chongqing in the early days with Chongqing today, and you will find that not much has changed. Chaotianmen Wharf, Old Street and Lane Tail, etc. have always existed. Chongqing is also a city with outstanding talents. Many famous soldiers and soldiers were born here. During the Chinese War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, they made contributions and sacrifices to the city of Chongqing, its people, and the cause of peace and progress of mankind.

The entire museum has a total of more than 100,000 cultural relics, and there are also many treasures of important historical and artistic value, including more than 500 Sichuan Paleolithic artifacts, more than 1000 Bashu cultural relics, more than 100 Han Dynasty stone reliefs and portrait bricks, more than 4000 famous kiln ceramics from past dynasties, and more than 5000 calligraphy and paintings by famous artists since the Song and Yuan Dynasties. In addition, there are also works by painters such as Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Xu Beihong, Zhu Xuanxian, and Su Baozhen. It is really a priceless treasure house of art.

Chongqing people's attitude towards life can be found in People's Square. At any time when you come here, you can see people chatting leisurely, children playing, and hawkers commuting to and from the crowd. There is no pressure or helplessness in life on their faces, but more optimism and enjoyment of life.

Chongqing, a municipality directly under the Central Government of China, is also internationally famous. Many magical buildings have stunned foreign friends. Some time ago, a video of a light rail passing through a building became popular on the Internet. Netizens became uneasy and felt that it could be summarized in the word magic. Therefore, this time when I came to Chongqing, I certainly wouldn't miss a close view of the light rail passing through the building. opportunity.

There are reasons for the magic of nature. Liziba Station of Chongqing Rail Transit Line 2 is the first straddle monorail elevated station in China that co-exists with commercial and residential buildings. When I arrived at Liziba Station from People's Square, it was already full of tourists, and a light rail would come in about 5 minutes. The light rail runs through the building. The biggest question many people have is whether people living here will find it noisy? In fact, because of the shock absorption and noise reduction treatment, the residents here are still living a good life.

After seeing the magical light rail passing through the building at Liziba Station, you naturally can't miss it and experience it for yourself. However, it is still a bit difficult to get to the platform because there are many stairs and turning around is still a bit boring.

If you want to ask me what are the most beautiful city night views in China, then apart from Hong Kong and Shanghai, there must be no better than Chongqing. Many people come to Chongqing to pursue the culture here, others come to Chongqing to find food that satisfies their taste buds, and more people come to Chongqing to enjoy the night view here.


Because of the Yangtze River and Jialing River, Chongqing is divided into two cities. Due to the rapid development of economy and tourism here, various high-rise buildings have risen along the banks of Hongyadong. Many skyscrapers have risen from the ground and are distributed around the two rivers. The city is full of modern atmosphere during the day. When night comes, the lights are brightly lit. The whole city seems to be dressed in gorgeous costumes. When viewed from a distance, it is dazzling.

It is not easy to walk Hongya Cave completely, because it has 11 floors above and below, and it is not directly from one floor to the bottom. Some floors have elevators, and some floors require walking steps. However, every place has unique content. The nights here really bring together a variety of lifestyles such as food, bars, and cruise ships, so this is also a must-visit for many tourists and one of the favorite places to go.


Chongqing is a city that needs to be slowly refined. Maybe you don't have much surprises when you first come here. Walk slowly, slowly discover its slow life, slowly integrate into the local people's lifestyle, and you will find yourself gradually falling in love with this city. There is a cool wind blowing on the river at night, and there is still an endless stream of tourists from Hongya Cave. At this time, the nightlife in the mountain city of Chongqing has just begun.
