The Yangtze River Cableway was originally built to facilitate residents 'lives, but now it has become a unique scenic spot in the city.

Because Chongqing is also a city built on mountains, many viaducts and light rail stations shuttle past residential buildings.

Exploiting the ins-style Cathay Pacific Art Center, many people who like to take photos come here to check in

High-rise buildings that continue to be built on land and land also witness the development of Chongqing

Several Internet celebrity light rail stations in Chongqing


I haven't updated my travel notes for a long time. I don't know where to start writing. Let's start with the light rail station in Chongqing. I heard that there is a light rail station called "Liziba" in Chongqing that is particularly popular. Tourists coming to Chongqing must go to the place to check in, and then take a photo with your mouth open to swallow the train. Just take the light rail directly to Liziba Light Rail Station and get out

Chongqing was still foggy in October, and I couldn't see much sunshine, blue skies and white clouds. I was a little uncomfortable at first, but after staying for a few more days, I gradually got used to it. I took these photos, and Li Ziba made a special trip to check in for me today.

When you get out of the light rail station, you need to walk down a few flights of stairs to reach the observation deck by the river. There are also two tour group buses below that specially bring tourists here to check in. A rough estimate of the number of people is about 100. Everyone is looking for their best shooting angle and then waiting for the arrival of the light rail train

It's coming, it's really coming. In just over 10 seconds, the picture has been stored in everyone's mobile phone.

I saw the world's longest escalator in Douyin Mountain, with a total length of 113 meters, so I couldn't escape the custom of running over and checking in. I was almost there from the light rail station at two intersections. When I saw the slogan,"Elevator in other cities can go up and down, and elevators in Chongqing can go up and down the mountain." Chongqing is so willful

The place where no one sells tickets is the entrance of the Crown Escalator. The one-way ticket price is 2 yuan, and the running time is 6:45-22:00. There are not many tourists coming. I guess it is because small local tourists cannot stay for too long. The escalator takes about 2 minutes to go down, which is really a bit long. I sat down and went back several times alone, and I came here to take pictures of it. I spent a total of 8 yuan back and forth. I guess the staff are used to it.

The escalator runs up and down, and down is a shopping mall selling things. I felt that there was nothing worth staying, so I came up again after taking pictures.

The console looks a bit old, with a lot of paint on the corners and corners. There is a phone on it, and I didn't look at the few buttons carefully. I rarely use them. I guess it will only be used in emergencies. Use it

After visiting the Crown escalator, the exit is a small vegetable market-like place. There are many people coming and going, and I also ate lunch here.

I took a turn on the light rail and came to this place nicknamed "Gas Stove". Some people also said that it is very similar to Chongqing Yuanyang Hotpot. It takes a few minutes to walk under Yangjiaping on the light rail. You can see it when you come out of the light rail station.

I specially found a high point to film this scene, but only after I finished filming and left, I realized that the stability period of my mobile phone had dropped. When I went back to look for it, I felt confused and felt sorry for myself for 5 seconds. I specially waited until the light rail passed by and took a few pictures. The video I took suddenly couldn't be turned on the Apple mobile phone in the last two days of the trip. Later, I went to after-sales maintenance and said that all the mobile phone information was lost. Alas, it really never rains alone. I also remind you to remember to back up important data you often take on your mobile phone. Remember... A lesson from the past

In fact, I spent a lot of time shooting videos here, but it was just for nothing because there was no backup.


A very interesting bookstore in Chongqing


Zhong Shuge is also very close to Yangjiaping Light Rail Station and stopped by to pull grass. In a shopping mall, you can also find it by following the navigation.

As soon as you arrive at the bookstore, you will be filled with a world of books and a sea of knowledge. It is very quiet inside, so if you are here specially to take photos, you must be quiet and not disturb others.

The stairs inside are also dazzling, and the reflection of the mirror shows books all over the world. Most of them are here to read and buy books. There are also some who come to check in and visit here like me. If there is enough time, I really want to stay here for a day, not think about anything, read books quietly, and finally buy my favorite book and leave

I became associated with bookstores when I was a child. No matter which city the channel was in, if it was convenient, I would go to 1-2 local bookstores.


Eling No. 2 Factory-Chongqing's Beijing 798 Art District


Every city has a cultural and creative industry and art district. Eling No. 2 Factory was transformed into this abandoned printing factory area. The address is located at No. 1 Eling Zheng Street, with a total construction area of 30,000 square meters. Now it has become a place for many young people to take photos and check in. There are now many craft shops, cafes, and restaurants in it. It is a bit similar to Beijing's 798. If you just stroll around for an hour, it is enough.

Fortunately, I chose to take a taxi and get off the bus and see the name of this No. 2 factory. Other buses and light rail took a little longer. I felt that the house was built with some history and looked a little dilapidated, but the large and small shops on the first floor were very conspicuous.

If you are tired and come here for a walk, it is a good choice to take photos and chat with friends. It is very quiet here

In 1953, the Banknote Printing Factory of the Central Bank of the Republic of China was renamed Chongqing No. 2 Printing Factory. The predecessor of Chongqing No. 2 Printing Factory was the Banknote Printing Factory of the Central Bank of the Republic of China, and later renamed Chongqing No. 2 Printing Factory.

At the end of the park, you can still see part of Chongqing's urban appearance. The weather is still the same foggy weather. When I came back, I couldn't feel how to adjust the color of the photos taken here. In the end, I chose this darker color tone. It's just right.

Walking around inside, I found that it is a good place to take photos. Many of them are suitable props for taking photos. For me, who came alone, I can only take some still lifes, so just make do with it.

After walking around twice, I accidentally saw this staircase and found that there were quite a lot of people. Most of them were taking photos. Some of them were professional and casual taking photos with friends, but it was very lively.

I still feel nostalgic when I see these old TVs. There are different scenery everywhere

Another place that I have to mention here is the rooftop where the movie "Passing Through Your World" is set. There is a cafe on the rooftop. I wanted to go up and have a look, but the service staff said that I needed to buy a ticket to enter, and it was the same for going to the cafe. I suddenly lost the interest in playing, so I hurried downstairs and left to be disappointed

There is an Eling Park not far from Eling No. 2 Factory. You can visit it on the way. It is only a few minutes 'walk from the gate to the top of the mountain. There is also a building on the top of the mountain that allows you to climb and have a long-term view. It's really worth visiting. You can overlook Chongqing's Main City, but unfortunately the weather is not good


Chongqing People's Auditorium. three Gorges Museum



Chongqing People's Auditorium is under construction or is it temporarily closed to the public for some reason? However, I have gained something different here.

The Chongqing parade float array during the National Day military parade unexpectedly appeared here for a period of time. It was an unexpected gain. The float was a collection of many representative architectural designs in Chongqing. It also looked spectacular. Many tourists and friends competed to take photos and reminisce...

After watching the float, you can also visit the Three Gorges Museum of China in Chongqing. The opening hours are closed from 9:00 to 16:00. It mainly tells the history and humanities of the Yangtze River and the history of the Anti-Japanese War in Chongqing during the Republic of China. It is also a way to understand the historical changes of Chongqing. window


Chongqing's CBD Jiefangbei Commercial District


When talking about Chongqing, we have to mention the Liberation Monument. It witnesses the great changes of Chongqing in the past 70 years. During the National Day holiday, it was also crowded with people. The five-star red flags fluttering in the wind add unique charm to the city.

Construction of the Anti-Japanese War Victory Monument and the People's Liberation Monument started on October 31, 1946 and was completed in August 1947. After the liberation of Chongqing in 1949, the "Anti-Japanese War Victory Monument" was renamed the "People's Liberation Monument", which Chongqing people called "Liberation Monument". Until 1982, Jiefang Monument maintained the "first height" of its area, overlooking the "mother city" of Chongqing. It is still a landmark building in Chongqing, with the name of the "People's Liberation Monument" inscribed by Marshal Liu Bocheng

Nowadays, skyscrapers have risen from the ground here in Jiefangbei, and it has become a famous Jiefangbei business district. The economy plays a decisive role in Yuzhong District and has also witnessed Chongqing's rapid development over the years.

There is a Cathay Pacific Art Center far away from Jiefang Monument. The main body of the art center is red, like a burning "bonfire" or a ship setting sail. Some people say that this side of it looks like a large ship made of red and black chopsticks. It has become another check-in place in Chongqing because of its unique shape. I really didn't pay attention to this when I came to Chongqing before.

Chongqing Guotai Art Center passed by and took a few photos and walked to Hongyadong in Chongqing. After crossing a pedestrian overpass, it was almost there. However, the good viewing positions on the roadside were basically occupied by restaurants and others. Fortunately, the time I arrived was already past the meal time. There weren't many people. I remember when I came to Chongqing in summer, the weather was blue sky and white clouds every day. Now I feel nostalgic for the past when I see this weather

You need to take the corridor or elevator to get down to the riverside above Hongya Cave. Generally, you can't wait for the elevator at night, because there are too many people coming every day. This time the weather is normal, I can't be bothered to go down and take photos. Qianzamen Bridge is still very spectacular. It is said that during the National Day, the traffic police even specially closed the bridge for tourists and friends who come to Chongqing to visit it. Please don't be so willful, okay?


Revisit the old place along the mountain city trail


It is said that to experience the most authentic street life, you must go to the mountain city trails in Chongqing. It is so quiet. I suggest that if you come, you should walk slowly to slowly feel and return to your original simple and simple life.


Getting to transportation: You can exit Exit 5 of Bichangkou Station on Light Rail Line 1 and walk a few hundred meters. However, the tunnel at Exit 5 is also very long. Hahaha, of course, you can also take a bus and get off at Shibanpo Station. It's not far away. If it's the rush hour, I suggest not taking the bus. The traffic jam is really serious...

When I got off the bus, I passed a place like an air-raid shelter. I didn't expect that someone was still using it. During the Republic of China, Chongqing was also violently bombed by enemy aircraft. Many places were translated as flat land, but with these large and small Shandong, we could avoid many sacrifices.

There is an eye-catching "Horseshoe Street" sign at the entrance of the mountain city trail. Seeing this gate means you are here.

There are still changes here compared to when I came here in 14 years. There are many more delicious food and snack bars. I remember that it used to be just a canteen, and there are also many graffiti on the walls that reflect the atmosphere of daily life in Chongqing.

Seeing these are all memories of childhood? Gathering with friends on weekends and dating, I feel like coming here is a great place. It's very comfortable to find a roadside shop to drink tea and chat. What do you think?

What you see ahead is the Chongqing Yangtze River Bridge, the first Yangtze River Bridge in Chongqing. Under the bridge, there is a sand bar. It is a sand island formed by the sedimentation of the Yangtze River channel. It is called Coral Dam. Walking on the trail doesn't feel tired at all. The cool breeze is very pleasant...

The mountain city trail is quiet. You can't feel the time passing by without realizing it.


Huangjueping-Sichuan-American Graffiti Street


Graffiti Street is located just outside Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts (Huangjueping Campus). Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts has two campuses. The old campus is located in Huangjueping. The Graffiti Street is 1.25 kilometers long and has a total area of about 50,000 square meters. It is claimed to be the largest graffiti art work in China and even the world today


Transportation: Take a bus and get off at Huangjueping

When I arrived at the graffiti street, I saw dense graffiti everywhere. Shops and residential buildings were filled with graffiti of large and small. It looked very art. It took a lot of effort to persuade local residents to convert these graffiti.

The representatives of the Graffiti Street regard this residential building as the most conspicuous and have forgotten what words to use to describe it. The graffiti on both sides of the street is not very suitable for taking photos. If you want to take some fun photos, you can go to the nearby Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts (Huangjueping Campus) to check in, which contains many fun art statues and graffiti.

The only thing I thought of when I saw these places was to bring a model to a cool set of photos. Unfortunately, I came in a hurry and didn't have time to make an appointment in advance. It was a mistake. It seems that in the future, I will find a girlfriend who loves taking photos. It's more reliable, so that there can be models anytime and anywhere. Hahahaha, single dogs who like to take photos sometimes like to fantasize wildly.


ciqikou

If there is another place in Chongqing that you don't like to visit very much, it's Ciqikou. Let's not talk about the distance. The key point is that so far I haven't found anything that is fun and particularly worth visiting. Every time I come, it's crowded with people. If you want to take some good photos, I suggest you not coming.

Of course, Ciqikou is not useless, and it has a high historical value. It is praised as "Little Chongqing" and has more than 1000 years of Ming and Qing style buildings. There is also Gudu Wharf for transporting materials during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and stone roads witness the historical rings here.


The mountain city of Chongqing becomes more and more beautiful at night


The most worthwhile part of traveling to Chongqing is, of course, climbing the stairs. It is said that many buildings that can be photographed now depend on connections and fate. Of course, it is no problem to go to one or two of them. Especially if you want to take good city scenery and night scenes, you still need to step in in advance. I knew that I couldn't take too many big films because of the weather, so I still took some photos as a souvenir.

Seeing this weather, I was thinking how beautiful the night scene would be if there were blue skies and white clouds. I look forward to taking better photos next time.

Finally, when night fell, I took 2 photos hastily without bringing a tripod, so you can make do with it. Of course, there are still people who will continue to take night pictures later.

I have seen a lot of night scenes in Chongqing on the Internet before. It's just that these days in Chongqing are either rainy or foggy. It still takes fate to take a particularly beautiful night scene. After waiting for 2 days, the day is a bit too far away. I still cherish it very much. I ran back to get a tripod and took the light rail to the Grand Theater Station to start taking night scenes

The night view of Qianzaimen Bridge in Chongqing is quite beautiful, but the angles that can be photographed are limited. The shooting time is just right and not too late. The sky is not completely dark yet.

After several years, a new Raffles Building has been built in Chaotianmen, and it has also become a new urban landmark. The night view is generally not very good because the lighting effects are not very good, so I don't take much photos. You need to come to Chaotianmen Pier for a night boat trip to Chongqing.

I also took a random photo of the Chaotianmen Yangtze River Bridge. It is estimated that it will be very beautiful with a good shooting position.

The Hongya Cave across the river is brightly lit. It is very eye-catching when viewed from afar, but it is also extremely beautiful. The bank of the river I photographed is actually a construction site still under construction. I wonder what changes have happened to Chongqing next time.

After taking the night view of Hongya Cave opposite me, I walked through Qianzaimen Bridge and came to Hongya Cave to continue my night view shooting. The scenery from the bridge was good, but it was not very friendly for me to carry a tripod and wanted to find a suitable position to take the night view. It took about 10 minutes to go to the opposite side, and the sky was completely dark. I barely took a few more night views of Qianzaimen Bridge. There are light rail trains below, and the bridge door and private cars can be used. If you remember correctly, the bridge lights on the light is around 7:30 pm

The last photo of Hongya Cave was really hard-won. It can be said that I walked through the sea of people to the first floor and then passed across the road. I remember that there were no guardrails to isolate it. It took me more than 10 minutes to get across the road. I found that it was already crowded here. It was not easy to find a suitable seat. There were many photographers on the roadside who charged to take night portraits. After barely taking this photo, I felt that I would never come here to trouble myself. No wonder it is true that Chongqing people don't like going to Hongyadong now.


Do you have to eat hot pot when you come to Chongqing?


Going to the mountain city of Chongqing without eating hot pot means never going to Chongqing? Every time I go to Chongqing, I have the impression that the city is full of hot pot. This time, I ate an old hot pot restaurant with boiled water and youth. It opened in 2015. The decoration style inside is also a memory of many young people born in the 1980s. This store is also recommended by local friends in Chongqing

Store address: No. 114 Mingzu Road, Yuzhong District, opposite Xiaoshizi Station. You can reach the store name by mobile phone navigation. The store has two front and rear doors, and it is also very close to walking from Hongyadong
Recommendation index: 5 stars, old hot pot hidden in the alley

Taste of dishes: Friends recommend that you must order fresh duck blood first. It is really too tender and smooth and delicious. You can also eat tripe with special attention. You can almost eat it with 7 ups and 8 downs. It is also a must-order for hot pot. The shrimp is also delicious and delicious at the entrance, and the dry tribute dishes are also crispy. By the way, there is also free ice powder in the store that is also a must-eat. Other dishes are also very fresh and delicious
Recommended dishes: tripe, shrimp paste, fresh duck blood, dried tribute vegetables, bamboo shoots
Per capita consumption: about 80 yuan

I still have some friends I have made when I came to Chongqing several times. This time, I also made a date with 2 friends. I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I'd like to meet and catch up with each other.

Because I don't take too many facial photos while eating, because people think my expression is exaggerated when eating, and it's not very good to take pictures.

Do people who come to Chongqing eat hot pot every day? If one meal is not enough, eat two meals! I have been to this restaurant twice and haven't had enough. This time I still ate authentic Jiuge Palace hot pot. It is a road away from Hongya Cave and very close to Xiaoshizi Light Rail Station. The interior decoration of the store is also in the style of literary and artistic youth. The service staff will say hello to you as soon as you enter the door. It is not small. The open-plan kitchen, the old TV in the lobby are also very contemporary, and the service staff are also very thoughtful
Store address: No. 75 Cangbai Road (opposite Hongyadong Starbucks), near Linjiangmen Exit D and Xiaoshizi Light Rail Station

Taste of the dish: Of course, tripe is a must-order. Rice field frog is also worth eating. It is very fresh. Fresh duck blood is simply tender and tender in the mouth. It is also my favorite. The beef is also very strong. The handmade shrimp is also tender and delicious. It is a dish that is too small to eat.
Recommended dishes: tripe, rice field frog, fresh duck blood, spicy beef, handmade fish and shrimp slippery
Per capita consumption: about 84 yuan
Recommendation index: 5 stars, a hot pot worth visiting?

The wall of the hall is also interesting. It shows Jay Chou's sunny day. There was a person who loved you for a long time, and it seems that it would be good to take pictures. The self-service selection desk is also a place where items are placed in a very orderly manner, and the retro TV wall is also very touching.

Don't ask me why I'm drinking, because Chongqing is not a suitable place for self-driving, so I parked my car in the underground garage where my friends lived for a few days in Chongqing. It was very comfortable to meet friends in Chongqing and have a drink. Chongqing's Guobin Beer tastes good, and it is worth tasting.

When traveling in Chongqing, I really have a hot pot every day. I really don't get tired of eating it. This Dongzi Li tripe hot pot is famous for its signature tripe. In order to ensure the best taste, it is delivered to the store as quickly as possible to preserve the freshness and taste of the tripe to the greatest extent. Fruits, snacks, and dried fruits can be eaten for free. This is too willful. The business is too good. I have no place to wait for a while. Just after filming the night view of Chongqing, I was thirsty and eating watermelon. It was so comfortable in Sichuan dialect, and the service staff had a great service attitude.
Store address: No. 66 Datong Road, Jiefangbei

Taste of the dish: Soak the signature tripe in soda water and add ice cubes for 1 minute, which can increase the crispness and keep fresh. Put it in the pan and blanch for 9 seconds, and serve on a special oil dish. It is refreshing and appetizing and has endless aftertaste...
Recommended dishes: signature tripe, hand-cut beef, fresh duck sausage, stewed duck blood, stewed chicken feet, tribute dishes?
Per capita consumption: about 82 yuan
The recommendation index is 5 stars. Speaking of which, I start to miss it again.

The little brother in the kitchen tore the tripe on the spot when serving the food. The boss also believed in his own strength and claimed: "The tripe is not crispy, the boss will refund it."

This tribute dish is also worth recommending. It is very refreshing and crispy. It is recommended that anyone who has the opportunity to eat can order one. Of course, other dishes are also good. I have expected it before, so I won't introduce them one by one.

I won't tell you that I ate it all by myself.

If you finally ask me whether Chongqing is worth visiting, then I will tell you that it will not be enough to go several times
If you finally asked me if Chongqing Hotpot was delicious, then I would tell you that it would not be enough to eat it several times
If you finally ask me whether Chongqing hotpot is spicy, then I will tell you that Hunan people are not afraid of spicy food, are they afraid of spicy food?
If you want to ask me what's so interesting about Chongqing in the end, then I'll tell you that you can experience it until you go there.
If in the end you still want to ask me that Chongqing is full of beautiful women on the streets, then I am really not lying to tell you this
If you end up asking me how beautiful the night view of Chongqing is, then I will tell you to find the right weather and plane flight, so beautiful it is so beautiful that it is crying.
