Remember the first trip of 2021

the epidemic in 2020
Made the days on the road last year extremely difficult
Missed the cherry blossoms in South Korea
Missed the long-awaited graduation trip...
time flies
one year has passed
This time in early 2021
I hope to start the new year with a brand new trip

Impressions of Chongqing

The reason why I will choose Chongqing for my first trip in 2021 is because it is really convenient from Chengdu to Chongqing, so I usually have the opportunity to visit Chongqing often, but I never tire of going to Chongqing. In addition, as the Spring Festival is approaching under the epidemic, I am afraid that there will be emergencies when traveling far away.

I remember that I came to Hongyadong every time I went to Chongqing. My friends in the circle of friends also said this. I can always come here by accident, but even if it is the same place, I seem to have fun every time I come. This may be the charm of Chongqing.

Evaluate Chongqing in four words: "Love and hate"!

The reason why I love it is not just the above mentioned. Although I have been to Chongqing many times, I will find new discoveries every time. Newly discovered hot pot restaurants, newly discovered aircraft seats, and newly discovered street corners. I enjoy exploring a city. The satisfaction brought to me in the process.

And I hate it no less than I love it. The less pleasant weather, the panting of climbing up and down, and the helplessness of walking more unjust roads make my feelings for it complex. I say I like it, but I don't seem to like it so much. I say I don't like it and I want to go to Chongqing from time to time.

It makes me a contradiction.

Chongqing debris

"Walking in Chongqing is like walking between reality and dream."

? Movies and magazines all love you

Do you still remember how Huang Bo looked like running crazily on the crisscrossing overpass?

In 2006,"Crazy Stone" made Chongqing popular, and Chongqing has been closely associated with movies since then.

From "Crazy Rock","Passing Through Your World","Hot Pot Hero" to "Teenager You", more and more movies are in love with Chongqing, and more and more people are making a movie again. Chongqing.

A director said: "Chongqing is a mixture of new and old. You can see different buildings of various styles and ages in one block, but they naturally blend into one without being abrupt. There is a chaotic order in this city, which is quite surreal in itself and cannot be seen anywhere else. This creates great tension in both content and form."

TFboys is the spokesperson of Chongqing's popularity. Every movie and magazine of them attracts countless people to Chongqing to check in. Today, we will join everyone to follow the footsteps of Yi Yang Qianxi, Wang Junkai and Wang Yuan?

Yi Yang Qianxi: I came to chase "Young You"

Once "Young You" was broadcast in 2019, Chongqing was pushed to another peak.

At that time, in the movie theater, I immediately recognized that the filming place was in Chongqing. Otherwise, which city would have such tall and low scattered houses, as if they were unique to the mountain city. The big city gave people the feeling of a certain distance. Compared with the mountain city, the mountain city seems more realistic and more lively, and it is also in line with the temperament of this movie.

The director said: "Chongqing has many large overpasses, high-rise buildings, and alleys. It's like a maze. Putting the characters here gives you the feeling that you can't escape this place. This helps the film present the inescapable melancholy of adolescence."

"If you move forward, I will definitely be behind you."
"Chen Nian, you are the first person to ask me if it hurts."
"Even if we live in a gutter, we must remember to look up at the stars."

Every day after school, Xiaobei would silently accompany Chen Nian along the road near the Railway Middle School;
Under the Sujiaba Bridge, Xiaobei lives alone;
The encounter between Xiao Bei and Chen Nian in the toy carriage city;
Chen Nian's figure returning home at the Tongyuan Bureau subway station...

·Haitang Creek Tongzi Building

[Address]: Haitangxi Main Street, Nan 'an District

In fact, I had been to this tube-shaped building before the movie was released. At that time, it was a relatively small place. Who knew that I came here again for the second time after the movie was broadcast? Many students came to the usually quiet and deserted tube-shaped building. Take photos.

This is a local residential building with a sense of the times. It is also Chen Nian's home in the movie. It can't be seen from the outside, but it really has a different world after entering it.

This reminds me of what Chen Nian wrote in his textbook: "We are all in the gutter of life, but there are always people looking up at the stars."

The entrance is on the upper and middle floors of the entire tube-shaped building. The octagonal well-shaped building and the old stairs are full of traces of time.

However, you will feel depressed when you first enter because the light is very dark, like a deep well, isolated from the outside world.

(Movie picture VS real picture)

If you can't find it here, you can ask on the nearby street. Basically, you can take photos at the iron gate at the entrance, and you can easily get emotional photos.

There are still many similar tube-shaped buildings in Chongqing today, which form a strong contrast with modern skyscrapers. It is hoped that these buildings will not be demolished or rebuilt, and that Chongqing will be preserved as it is. The older generation of Chongqing people are their common witnesses.

·Crown escalator

[Address]: 1st Floor, Crown Building, No. 107 Zhongshan 3rd Road, Liangkou

I was deeply impressed by the Crown Escalator because when I first came to Chongqing, the hotel was booked near the intersection of the two intersections, and then I had to cross the Crown Escalator, but I was shocked that the elevator was so deep.

(Taken in the summer of 2017)

The Crown Escalator has a total length of 112 meters, a width of 1.3 meters, and an elevated height of 52.7 meters. It runs for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. It is the second longest escalator in Asia and one of the most distinctive transportation in Chongqing.

At first, the Crown Escalator was built to make it easier for Chongqing people to go up and down the mountain. The two intersections were on the mountain, and Caiyuan Dam was at the foot of the mountain. Later, with the increase of tourists, it became more and more popular. Huang Bo once challenged the escalator here in "Extreme Challenge". task.

In addition, I believe that friends who have watched "Young You" are also familiar with this place. In the film, Xiao Bei silently protects Chen Nian is to stand on the elevator next to Chen Nian and follow Chen Nian to and from school.

We also filmed a few short clips in imitation of the movie. Isn't it very interesting?

Need to be reminded that there will be a charge for taking the elevator here. The ticket price is 2 yuan and you need to use cash. Make preparations in advance before going ~

·Zhongshan 4th Road

[Address]: Zhongshan 4th Road, Yuzhong District

Zhongshan Fourth Road is known as the most beautiful road in Chongqing. This road, which is only 800 meters long, has quietly spanned three centuries.

The name of Zhong34 Road first appeared on the map in the 1930s. Since then, it has been destined to be inseparable from history and represents Chongqing's past and present life. Guiyuan, Teyuan, Zhougongguan, Zhangxiang Mansion... These old sites are scattered scattered along the road.

The whole street is full of literature and art, shaded by trees, and full of depth and mystery. It has a completely different feeling from other Chongqing streets, quiet and unique.

There are many yellow jue trees along Zhongshan Fourth Road. Yellow jue trees are Chongqing's city trees. They are tenacious and can jump out of the stone cracks in the walls.

(Movie picture VS real picture)

In the last scene of the movie "Teenage You", the adult Xiao Bei was still guarding behind Chen Nian, adding a warmth to the somewhat oppressive atmosphere.

After watching "Young You", it is worth going to Zhongshan Fourth Road to relive the movie, so that you can continue to have hope for life.

"If you move forward, I will definitely be behind you."

·Kuixing Building

[Address]: No. 17, Datang Plaza, Linjiangmen, Yuzhong District

Kuixing Tower is located at Linjiangmen. It is very flat when viewed from the spacious square, but the square is connected to the newly built high-rise building next to it by an overpass. Under the overpass is a "cliff" more than 20 stories high!

Therefore, this place is also known as the "disappeared horizon".

There are two suspended flyovers here. You can stand on one side of the flyover and take pictures on the other side, but people who are afraid of heights should not look down.

(Movie picture VS real picture)

Under the overpass is the place where Xiao Bei, the most popular movie poster, walked around the corner. When he went there, he lined up to check in!

(Movie Picture)

(Real photo)

(Real photo)

This angle is really a bit shocking. It was cloudy when I went there, and when the weather is good, the sun can shine down just obliquely, 100% restoring the movie poster.

Walking down from here is Hongya Cave not far away.

Wang Junkai: Hidden corners of residential buildings

White Elephant House is one of my favorite places recently. There is no reason why this treasure residential building should not be popular.

Legend has it that Baixiang Street is named after the "White Elephant Temple" in the street. There is a pool in the temple. There are stone elephants carved from white jade of the Han Dynasty. In the pool, they are diametrically opposed to a pair of green stone lions at Xuantan Temple on the south bank, forming the "Green Lion and White Elephant Lock the Yangtze River" trend, which not only locks Chongqing's wealth, but also blesses Chongqing's good weather.

White Elephant Residence is named because it is close to White Elephant Street.

A White Elephant Street, half of Chongqing's history.
It witnessed the Southern Song Dynasty's anti-Mongolian struggle and the opening of the "Eastern Wall Street". It has 9 cultural relics and buildings and 2 ancient city wall ruins. It is a microcosm of Chongqing's development history.

If you can't find the specific location of White Elephant House, you can first locate it to the nearby Yonghui Supermarket. There is a white elephant sculpture opposite the supermarket. This is a very obvious sign. Then walk behind the white elephant and follow the road. Not far away is White Elephant House.

Can you imagine the experience of this residential building without an elevator from the first floor to the 24th floor?

At first, I thought that these residents were too awesome. Aren't they tired of climbing up and down? Later, I learned that there were entrances and exits to the outside world on multiple floors. In that era when there were no elevators, the wisdom of Chongqing people was vividly reflected.

In 1994, Baixiangju won the first prize for Chongqing Outstanding Architectural Design.

It was first known to the public as a classic movie "Hot Pot Hero" in 2016. In the movie, Liu Bo was chased and blocked because of debt, and was beaten in the corridor between the covered bridges of the White Elephant Residence.

(Magazine pictures VS real pictures)

(Magazine pictures VS real pictures)

Now, because Wang Junkai came here to shoot magazines, Bai Xiangju has become popular again. In fact, he wanted to come here to check in as early as last year, but every time he came to Chongqing, the time was relatively tight and eventually it was lost. This time, priority was given.

This is the hottest spot in White Elephant House. On this nearly 90-degree ramp, pick up your mobile phone and face the sky, waiting for the cable car on the Yangtze River cableway to pass by.

There is an old residential building in front and the Raffles Building faintly visible behind, forming a sharp contrast.

By the window of the corridor, the bridge is clearly visible and the view is very wide.

"You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery, and the people watching the scenery look at you upstairs."

The weather was good on the day I went, and the breeze was blowing. I wanted to freeze the time at this moment.

At the corner, the staircase behind is the scene of "Hidden Corner". In addition, there are local residents playing cards and mahjong in the corridor. Clothes dried on the public terrace and debris piled up in the corner are full of traces of life.

Wang Yuan: The hottest street convenience store in the country

This is the hottest convenience store in the country!

Several beverage cabinets are lined side by side against the facade wall of the ramp outside the store. The beverage racks in the store can be seen through the glass. Various colors are intertwined to form a messy aesthetic feeling, which is really similar to the style of vending machines on the streets of Hong Kong.

This convenience store, established in 2016, is open 24 hours a day and sells tobacco, alcohol and beverages. It was originally ordinary. Later, because the store was too small and the drinks couldn't be put in, they had to pile them outside the store and overlap them at the door. Unexpectedly, this unintentional move unexpectedly became popular.

After Wang Yuanlai photographed the magazine, hundreds of people came to check in every day. It is said that the boss can make thousands of profits a day. The star effect is really good!

We finished eating hot pot nearby that day, but we went because it was nearby and it rained. We thought that there should be no one else there to take pictures when it rained.

The entire convenience store is at the entrance of a garage. It is inconspicuous from a distance, but it will make your eyes shine when you get closer.

Well, as expected, there was no one. We were the home court tonight!

Because the convenience store is on the ramp, you can choose to shoot from the bottom up to make people taller.

I don't know if you have noticed the words "Take a photo to buy water" next to it. In fact, the store does not insist on buying water when taking pictures. It's just that there are too many people here and it's a bit blocked, but those who come here to take pictures usually buy a bottle of water.

Because it is more Hong Kong style, you can use some film or retro filters. Polaroid can also be a good background here ~

Let's take a photo shoot, haha. It's so hard to deceive. The rain is getting heavier and heavier, my shoes are getting wet, and the next day my sister even caught a cold...

? Night is the eternal theme song of the misty city

If I want to say which city in China has the most beautiful night view, then I think Chongqing definitely ranks first!

There is no night view, not Chongqing. Buildings and water intersect, the levels are gradually beautiful, the two rivers meet each other, and the lanterns are on, showing Chongqing's night aesthetics.

The night in Chongqing is the feeling of Hongya Cave that "the crowd is looking for him thousands of times, and when I look back, the man is in the dim lights";
The night in Chongqing is the brilliance of a tree in Nanshan overlooking the entire Yuzhong Peninsula;
The night in Chongqing is the splendor of cruise ships and high-rise buildings under the Qianzaimen Bridge;
Night in Chongqing is a street lamp at the corner of Shancheng Pedestrian Road;
……

In the city clouds, from dusk to dusk

That afternoon, there was a little sunshine in the thick clouds in Chongqing's sky. I left the hotel at 5 o'clock to the nearby United Nations office building to climb the stairs to overlook the entire city of Chongqing.

Xiaoshizi Subway Station is not far away. When you go downstairs, take the elevator to the 47th floor, and then take the elevator to the 67th floor. You will see the ticket office on your right hand when you exit the elevator, and then enter from the side.

Entering from the entrance, there is a small art exhibition. If you have enough time, you can rest and stroll here, and then enter the rooftop from the staircase at Zemian.

There are instructions on the floor. Follow them to a rainbow staircase. Exit the elevator and you will find the rooftop.

Then from the red staircase built on the rooftop, we reached the highest tarmac. By the time we went there, some tourists had arrived, and there was also a photographer who was filming the delay.

At that time, the sunset just turned a little pink, and later it became heavier, and gentle city photos came out ~

There are red spiral stairs on both sides of the tarmac. On one side is the river view of the Dongshuimen Yangtze River Bridge, and on the other side is the urban landscape of the Westin Jiefangbei and the WFC Global Financial Center.

At night, the scenery will be even better, and you will have a panoramic view of the night view of Chongqing city!

Personally, I feel that the experience is better than many other high-rise observation towers, because the observation towers here are semi-open design. Unlike high-rise observation towers in other cities, which are mostly closed by glass due to safety considerations, which can allow you to experience the shock of high altitude.

The stairs here are the best place to take photos. The city scenery behind makes the photos more large. However, it started to fog at night and didn't get the ideal results.

If you look down from the red stairs for a long time, your legs will go soft, so just look ahead and walk. In addition, you can also take pictures from top to bottom. You are sitting on the stairs and half-lying on the stairs. It is also very impressive ~

More dreamy than Shanghai, an excellent viewing platform opposite Raffles

I used to think that the night view of Hongya Cave was dreamy enough. When I learned that I came to Nanbin Road opposite Raffles to take pictures of Raffles this time, I realized that it was even more dreamy here!

Raffles can be said to be a landmark building in Chongqing. Raffles, the most beautiful night scene in Chongqing, must have a name!

After eating hot pot in the evening, you can come for a walk on Nanbin Road. The beautiful night scenery and the breeze along the river make your mood feel better. You can look at the Chongqing Peninsula urban landscape across from you. The above picture can see the Qianzaimen Bridge and Hongya Cave. The angle is not wider ~

Raffles is shaped like a sailboat. I don't know why every time I see it, I think of the Burj Hotel in Dubai. The entire building lights up in different colors at night.

Located at the intersection of the Yangtze River and the Jialing River, the two rivers sandwich the "sailboats", which has a bit of momentum to ride the wind and waves ~

Not far downstream of Nanbin Road, there is a circular landmark on the street. Through this circle? Seeing Raffles has a different feeling.

In fact, I originally wanted to come here to take photos of the arch below, but I didn't expect that the entrance to the entrance would be sealed when I went, otherwise the photos would be even more dreamy.

Apart from Qianzaimen, what bridge is worth visiting?

- "What are the beautiful bridges in Chongqing?"
- "Qianzamen Bridge."
- "What else?"
- "Uh, I don't know."

Sure enough, tourists only know how to go to the Qianzaimen Bridge to take night pictures. This time, I went for a walk on Nanbin Road and met the Dongshuimen Bridge. The main reason is that there are almost no people on the roadside, only sporadic pedestrians passing by.

Will you mistake it for Qianzamen Bridge at first glance?

In fact, Dongshuimen Bridge and Qianzaimen Bridge are "sister bridges", namely,"Chongqing Liangjiang Bridge". The Dongshuimen Bridge connects Yuzhong and South Bank. The towers of the two bridges are spatial curved and beautiful. The construction method of the "Twin Bridges" is unique in the world and is also a characteristic of Chongqing.

We walked down Longmen Road that night and walked to Nanbin Road. On the way, we could see the Yangtze River cableway. It was also a good view here, very Chongqing.

Walking further down is the Dongshuimen Bridge. It took five years to complete and open to traffic in 2014 and was elected as one of the top ten "most beautiful bridges" in Chongqing.

Chongqing's ancient city gates have the saying of "nine opens and eight closes". There are a total of 17 city gates. Currently, there are still two ancient city gates left in Chongqing, one is Renhe Gate and the other is Dongshuimen. The Dongshuimen Bridge was built near Dongshuimen, hence its name.

The main span of the bridge is 520 meters, the deck width is 21 meters, and the total length is 1000 meters. It is divided into two floors, the upper layer is a sidewalk and two-way four-lane, and the lower layer is a two-way track line.

In addition, in summer, walking on the Dongshuimen Yangtze River Bridge, you can not only feel the coolness brought by the oncoming river breeze, but also enjoy the beautiful night view on both sides of the Yangtze River in Chongqing. It is also a good viewing platform.

If you come to Chongqing to travel, I may not recommend you to spend money to take the Yangtze River cableway, but I would recommend you to go for a walk on the Dongshuimen Bridge and Qianzaimen Bridge to slowly appreciate the beautiful night view of Chongqing.

A niche perspective of Dazhong Hongya Cave

When traveling to Chongqing, one of the indispensable check-in points is Hongyadong.

Especially at night, looking across the river is like being in the soup house of my mother-in-law in the middle of a thousand years. It is full of dreams and is one of the most landmark buildings.

Hongya Cave is an old Internet celebrity attraction in Chongqing. It seems that people who have been to Hongya Cave don't want to go to Hongya Cave again. First, they have been there, and second, they are because Hongya Cave is crowded with people.

I have been to Chongqing many times, and I will go to Hongya Cave every time (I don't know why). Today, I would like to recommend some niche views of Hongya Cave for the public. You must not have been there ~

In fact, Hongya Cave was photographed more brilliantly by a Japanese photographer before. It was photographed inside the scenic area. If you are interested, you can go and look for it. In addition to his position, I would recommend this spot inside Hongya Cave. Beside the wooden bridge, looking from this angle, there is a hanging tower building in Hongya Cave. There are bridges echoing far and near, and there is a contrast between warm and cold lights.

Then you can go to the Qianzaimen Bridge. It is unique to take pictures of Hongya Cave obliquely from the bridge. You can set up a tripod to take time-delay or light tracks, both of which are very beautiful.

Many people only know how to take photos on the road below Hongya Cave. In fact, the opposite side of Hongya Cave is the best position to take a full picture of Hongya Cave (walk along the Qianzaimen Bridge). The bridge, Hongya Cave and the city behind them are integrated into one. This sense of hierarchy is even more dreamy.

Finally, this is the place I want to talk about the most. In a small place along the Jialing River and diagonally opposite the Hongya Cave, you can see the Qianzaimen Bridge and the Hongya Cave Scenic Area at the same time, plus the distant high-rise buildings and boats on the river., very three-dimensional!

You can reach this place by walking a few hundred meters directly opposite Hongya Cave to the lower reaches of the river. There are basically no people, so you can pose for photos at will.

When you look at it from here, it's simply beautiful!! Let you become the most beautiful guy in your circle of friends ~

I only recommend that you go at night, not during the day. If you go during the day, you will not feel anything at all. Only when you take pictures at night can you have that dreamy and futuristic feeling.

Use the blurred lights of the bridge and tall buildings behind to create the background, and then take a silhouette to easily release the film.

[Warm Reminder]:
1?? Be sure to pay attention to safety!! There may be broken glass bottles, branches, small stones, etc. by the riverside. It is best to turn on the flashlight of your mobile phone? Look more at your feet;
2?? Although there will be basically no wind and waves, it is best not to get too close to the river to prevent accidentally falling into the river;
3?? If you have friends with you, it's best to go together. It is not recommended to take photos and check in alone ~
4?? Follow the suggested time I said, don't shoot too late, the road may be difficult.
5?? Go to the riverside to take photos and don't produce garbage! If garbage occurs, please bring your own pocket to put it in, and take it up and throw it in the trash can? In this country, it is everyone's responsibility to take care of the environment ~

It turns out that there is another Miyazaki fairy tale hidden in the mountain city

In addition to Hongya Cave, here I found a fairy tale world in the mountains and alleys!

I discovered that it was a video of a Chongqing photographer I accidentally saw, and I made arrangements to come to Chongqing this time.

This alley is in Ma 'anshan Community Park on Shangxin Street, Nan' an District. It is open to the public for free. Come and check in while it is not occupied by tourists.

Within a minute's walk from the main street, you will see a footpath ladder with Chongqing characteristics. On both sides are old houses in Chongqing. The road paved with bluestone slabs retains the original appearance of Chongqing. If you are Chongqing people, you will have a feeling of returning to childhood.

There is also an old guide sign on the roadside, which is very nostalgic.

You can see Coco's Chinchilla at the entrance of the alley. Although it is not very exquisitely made, it integrates well with the environment and is not obtrusive, adding the beauty of cartoon fantasy to this "Mountain City Walking Road".

There are also colorful flowers on the roadside. Under the illumination of the lights, a close look gives you the feeling of walking into a miniature fairy tale world.

In addition, various old objects such as nostalgic TVs and warm water bottles are placed next to them. Pedestrians are walking up and down, hazy ones, etc., and the hot pot next to it is full of fireworks.

? Going abroad, suddenly

Chongqing has a strong local atmosphere, and many places will bring their own Chongqing characteristics, as if Chongqing is everywhere you go.

But these days when I was traveling in Chongqing, I spent a lot of time looking for some B-side scenery that ran counter to the characteristics of the mountain city. I think this should be an interesting experience?

So, the foreign chapter of "Chongqing Forest" is here!

It's like a subway station in Japan, it's actually here

[Address]: Daxigou Subway Station on Line 2

I really want to travel to Japan, but unfortunately...

However, this newly discovered ultra-small photo location in Chongqing is really amazing. Traveling to Tokyo in one second, Chongqing finally has a Japanese photo location!

I insisted on going even when it rained that night, otherwise I wouldn't have time to check in Chongqing. Haha, it was at the Daxigou Light Rail Station on Rail Line 2. This is the picture when you exit the subway station.

The exit of this station is relatively small, and I am not afraid of people constantly influencing the photos. This time, the props I brought included umbrellas and fill light. People were holding umbrellas downstairs, giving me a quiet and lonely beauty at night.

My brother, and my sister each went to take a picture. We all took it on our mobile phones. The pictures were taken in minutes. There were other buildings on the right side, but later we removed it, so that the picture would be cleaner.

Daxigou Light Rail Station itself has a Japanese-style platform with more green elements, simplicity and refreshing. I really like it very much. You can also take Japanese-style photos in the station ~

In addition, it's also good to go out to another exit under the subway to take photos. Outside is the zebra crossing, and behind is the river and high-rise buildings. It's more interesting to use the blurred vehicles as the background

Let's hurry up and check in before the fire starts. Finally, we have to say that every time we go to Chongqing, we will have surprises!

??? ???? Chongqing Yuyue

[Address]: Bayi Road, Yuzhong District

Moving the camera to the other side of the ocean, Chongqing also has the shadow of the United States.

Passing by here by chance, it feels different from the streets before. Looking at China Everbright Bank through the gaps between the buildings on the street, I feel like a sudden foreign country.

If you go further, you will see the high-rise building in the New York Tower. The top is sharp and easy to identify. When Chongqing's "little yellow car" passes by here and is captured, you will instantly feel like you are on the streets of New York.

Medieval castle, mysterious church in city park

[Address]: Central Park, Jiangbeizui Central Business District

On the way back to the hotel, you will pass a park. There is a Christian church in the park, which is particularly eye-catching under the light.

It was built by American missionaries in 1894 and the church was not originally here.

Ma Jiali, an American missionary and director of Chongqing Kuanren Hospital (now the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University), sent people to buy a shop on Jiangbei Shuyuan Street to preach in the name of practicing medicine. Due to conflicts with local people (historically known as the Jiangbei Case Plan), the church received compensation, and the Methodist Church used this compensation to build the Gospel Church and Jiangbei Medical Center. Ma Jiali was appointed as the first priest of Jiangbei Gospel Church.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the church carried out various patriotic anti-Japanese propaganda activities, and the church's book reading room was expanded into a "wartime national salvation library" to organize book clubs.

The patriotic groups active in this hall include the National Salvation Association, the Student Rescue Association, the Student Federation, the Jiangbei Women's Comfort Branch, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Group of the Aviation Training Class, and the Wartime Book and Newspaper Supply Society.

In 2005, Jiangbeizui announced that it had entered a stage of large-scale construction. Gospel Church, together with some old buildings in Jiangbeizui, was listed as the first batch of retained and relocated catalogs, and the relocation and reconstruction project began in 2006.

This is the newly completed Gospel Church. It combines classical and modern religious architectural styles. It not only retains and inherits Chongqing's historical architectural culture, but also adds a cultural landscape to the modern Jiangbei CBD financial center.

At present, it is very small, and almost only some nearby locals come for a walk around.

During the day, it is plain and ordinary, but at night, because it is not in the downtown area, it feels like it has an isolated beauty.

Under the light, it looks like a castle in a fairy tale, covering this park with a mysterious veil.

In addition, people hold weddings here occasionally. If you go during the day, you can wear brightly colored clothes (such as red), which will be more suitable ~

? Flavor World, Flavor Chongqing

The so-called delicious food is just a meeting again and again.
We take you through mountains and seas, occasionally taking root, achieving thousands of food changes, and then turning into a rolling red world, crossing the spice fork road. After several times of night rain in the Jianghu, thousands of lights are lit up.
In this wonderful flavor journey, you bring laughter, and I am fortunate to receive it.
--"Flavor World"

Chongqing, like Chengdu, is a city that can go simply for food. It is a city business card and the pride of every Chongqing person.

There is no joy without spicy food, and there is no Chongqing without spicy food.

hotpot| Only after coming to Chongqing to eat hot pot is considered complete

When it comes to Chongqing, everyone's first reaction must not be Hongyadong or Light Rail, but hot pot!!!

Since you are in Chongqing, how can you say that you have visited Chongqing without eating two hot pot meals? Here, I would like to recommend three hot pot restaurants that I think are excellent, located in Nan 'an District, Shapingba and Yuzhong District. Without saying much, make arrangements!

??? Nan hot pot???
? Nan Hotpot (Fourth Community Main Store)
? Address: No. 1-4, Unit 3, No. 3, Garden Fifth Village, 236 Nancheng Avenue
? Transportation: 930 meters walk from Exit 3 of Nanhu Station on Metro Loop Line

Nan Hotpot has always been very popular. Previously, Nan Hotpot from Chongqing came to Chengdu, and it was great to ask a friend to have a meal! But a friend said that he had eaten Chongqing's food was better. It was said that Chongqing's Nan Hotpot started queuing after four o'clock!

In order to taste the legendary queuing Wang Nan hotpot, I arrived at 4 o'clock and waited for the hot pot restaurant to open. As it is worthy of its reputation, there are already people waiting?

This store is very popular in Chongqing. The main store in the four sub-districts is actually a small hot pot restaurant opened under the residents 'buildings. It is very market-oriented and authentic!

It is a dessert shop that was delayed by hot pot. Last time we ate in Chengdu, we ordered four extra large portions of shaved ice. It was really amazing. The extra large portions were very rich. Because the portions were too large, we just had one for each of us this time. It feels so good, and I still want to drink it after drinking it!!

? [Stewed Vegetable Series]: Rake chicken feet, rake pig's feet, rake beef, and stewed fat sausage. They can all be eaten directly with stewed or put into the pot. The stewed is very delicious
? [Double Pepper Beef]: Recommended by wall cracking, the meat is very tender and tender, and the taste is very good. Don't miss those who like spicy food!
? [Freshly fried crispy meat]: Its crispy meat is excellent, with a crisp and thin skin and not oily at all

In addition, there are beef tendons, duck blood, spicy ribs, etc. It's so happy ~

When traveling to Chongqing, you really, really don't miss this store. Even if you queue up, it's worth it. Go early, go early, go early, and tell the important things three times!

??? Principal halogen???
? Marinated Principal Old Hot Pot·Everything can be hot (Shapingba Store)
? Address: No. 64 Yubei Road, Shapingba District
? Transportation: Metro Line 1/Ring Line Shapingba Station Exit 440 meters walk

Haha, this time I came to Chongqing to check in again, Principal Lu! I have eaten this restaurant several times in Chengdu, and I especially want to experience Chongqing's stewed principals!

This time I went to Shapingba Store, which was also the first hot pot I came to Chongqing. When I came out of the West Railway Station, I went straight to the hot pot restaurant. At first glance, I saw the Hongyadong, which looked a little like a miniature version. It was a retro style hot pot restaurant opened in the Diaojiaolou Tower. It was very Chongqing!

The decoration design of this house is super sensational. Walking in from the door is like walking through. The colorful neon lights, various nostalgic signs, and green and red walls are full of retro flavor. It is very lively, and it explodes the circle of friends in minutes ~

My impression of the principal is not hot pot, but dessert! Every time I go to eat stewed, the principal has to eat a lot of desserts. Haha, there are more than ten kinds of desserts for you to choose from for free. There are also 5 different flavors of super sized shaved ice. The beauty is amazing. The key is that it is free. Value!

I ate the signature spicy stewed chicken feet, spicy stewed tofu, spicy stewed pork ribs, and lunch meat. In his stewed hot pot, you can eat stewed vegetables directly or cook hot pot. I personally prefer to cook them in hot pot. After all, I am here to eat hot pot. If you want to eat hot pot next time I go to Chongqing, I will eat this restaurant again?

I ate here with my friends for two or three hours. It was so great. This restaurant has been listed on the list of inviting friends to dinner next time. Haha, fun!

??? Second Brother Harao???
? Harao Erge Waist King Old Hotpot (Jiefangbei Store)
? Address: No. 45, First Floor, Ping Street, World Trade Center, 129-131 Zourong Road
? Transportation: 90 meters walk from Exit B of Linjiangmen Station on Metro Line 2

Last time my classmates went to Chongqing, they checked in for this famous waist slices hot pot. It can be said to be a time-honored brand in Chongqing. Before going there, many people recommended Second Brother Harao. There are many people who went to Nanping Store. This time I went to check in Jiefangbei Store.

I don't know the best hot pot in Chongqing, but the best waist slices hot pot must have a name ~

I went late, but there were still many people in the store. Chongqing should have a proper hot pot meal at night.

The name of the store is called "King of Waist Pieces", which shows Second Brother Hara's confidence in his own waist slices? His waist slices are cut evenly, with superb knife skills, and the waist slices are delicate and have a great taste. It is enjoyable to match with his dry chili plates!!!

In addition to waist slices, I recommend a few favorite dishes
① [Cold Pot Duck Blood]: After putting in the pot, you can eat it when it floats up. The entrance is tender and smooth. It is really a must-order!
② [Homemade luncheon meat]: The slices are very thick, the meat is solid, the taste is good, and chewy
③ [Spicy Beef]: Beef that you will never forget when eating hot pot. The beef is very fresh, the more spicy you eat, and the more you want to eat it
④ [Waist Slice Companion]: As the name suggests, it is a must-have to eat waist slices. Dip the waist slices that have just come out of the pot and eat them spicy and delicious, and you will get the best.
?? In addition,[Squid],[Hand-made Jaw-handed],[Wheat Rake] and so on are all excellent

This wonton is not bad. Now I like to order one even when eating hot pot.

If you like to eat waist slices, you must come here to check in ~

brochette| Chengdu people eat skewers for the first time in Chongqing

Can you see hot pot restaurants everywhere in Chongqing?
But you rarely see a chain shop?
After eating too much hot pot, I really want to try skewers
The last day after leaving Chongqing
I actually found a treasure chain store?
I will definitely brush it again next time I come to Chongqing!!!

There are two stores in Shidatian Street. The one I went to was the second store. It was on the second floor. It didn't look very eye-catching from downstairs, but there was a unique place after going upstairs!

The restaurant is very spacious and bright. The decoration inside is super retro Hong Kong. It is surrounded by various slogans and neon lights. It really feels like how to take pictures. It is especially suitable for taking photos and checking in!

The open refrigerator is filled with fog and is particularly fairy, with a complete range of choices ~

[9 Flavors of Palm Treasure]: Because I went late, the Palm Treasure was sold out after 1 o'clock in the afternoon because it was sold out? My friend said it was a pity that I would definitely make up for it next time! There are many flavors including spicy, garlic, pickled peppers, rattan peppers, etc. There are many choices, mainly garlic?

[Beef skewers]: Must eat!!! I ate dozens of roots, It's really delicious and tender. I have to order it. I feel that the beef tastes more delicious with the skewers.

The sour plum juice drink has sorbet in it, which is refreshing and super spicy!

[Xiaojun Liver]: When eating skewers, you must eat Xiaojun Liver. It has a crisp taste and is super elastic!

In addition to the treasures in the palm, various other meat and vegetable dishes are very rich, and there are also a variety of ice glutinous rice balls that don't feel too good after eating spicy food!!

Sichuan cuisine| No. 1 Jianghu Cuisine in my Heart

I can't stand it after eating a few hot pot meals in Chongqing? If you want to eat food for a change of taste, many people will have this problem when traveling to Chongqing. If you don't want to eat hot pot and want Sichuan cuisine,"Yangjilong Mansion" can arrange it!

This house is next to Chongqing Guotai Art Center, very close to Jiefangbei Hongya Cave and super convenient, and the entrance looks very grand.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most exquisite and unique Jianghu restaurant I have ever seen in Chongqing. It is truly the most popular king of Chongqing Jianghu cuisine!

Because we came early and wanted to check in at several places in the afternoon, we came to the restaurant for dinner at 11 o'clock. There were not many people in the restaurant and the atmosphere was just right.

The inside is huge and spacious, and the decoration is in the Chinese style of the Republic of China. It is antique and very stylish. Carved wooden tables and chairs, and lanterns can be seen everywhere. The environment is very comfortable!

The three of me sat in a private room by the window. The weather in Chongqing was good that day and the sun shone in. The waiter was also very warm and thoughtful. I felt like I had discovered the Treasure Restaurant!

[National Chili Chicken]: This store's TOP1 sign is bright and appetizing. Fried peppers and diced chicken with onions and ginger are fried until fragrant. It is the most popular and classic dish in Jianghu cuisine ~

[Brown sugar yin rice porridge]: I wanted to nourish my stomach after eating too much hot pot, so I ordered this. It is thick and fragrant, very delicious, and very suitable for appetizing before meals.

[Mapo Tofu]: It is a dish that goes well with rice. It is authentic Sichuan flavor and has a lot of portions. I also like spicy tofu very much.

[Yangji Private Room Stewed Goose]: A very exquisite and creative dish. This is a dish placed in a bird cage. I also ordered this dish for face value. It is fairy, the goose meat is firm and very delicious ~

Each of us ordered a bottle of home-made drink. We could take it away if we couldn't finish it. It was not only sufficient but also delicious. It was so refreshing!

There are just too many others. If I hadn't eaten too much, I would have kept eating it. It's so suitable for the taste of Hechuan Yu!!!

Finally, I have to say that Yang Jilong Mansion is really the front of Chongqing Jianghu cuisine, and it is a great treat for guests and parties!

? Yangji Longfu (Jiefangbei Main Store)
? Address: No. 32 - 7 Linjiang Branch Road (next to the traffic light behind Wangfujing Department Store at the intersection of Cangbai Road and Linjiang Branch Road)
? Transportation: 470 meters walk from Exit D of Linjiangmen Station on Metro Line 2

Taro balls| Grandpa Age has none of the best taro rounds

It is the most popular taro round in Chongqing. I went to Chongqing and asked friends in Chongqing if they had any recommended snacks, and they all recommended it.

This is a small taro shop opened by a Taiwanese grandfather. Friends used to go to the fish cave to eat, but now branches have been opened in various major business districts.

The old grandfather insisted on making all raw materials by hand, without using any added gas, and using simple raw materials to make the best taste.

Handmade taro rounds taste more chewy. A full bowl is full of happiness!

This store is not big, with orange color as the main theme, fresh healing, and the style of a small shop in an old street in Taiwan. The price is not expensive. Don't miss it ~

? Yage Taiwanese famous snack
? Address: 6-5 Beicang Wenchuang Street, No. 55 Xingta Road (next to Guanyinqiao Middle School)
? Transportation: 1 kilometer walk from Exit 5 of Guanyin Bridge on Metro Line 3

potato| 9 out of 10 Chongqing people have eaten it

It is said that the Dingjiapo potatoes hidden under the Dazu residential building have always been imitated and have never been surpassed. This time, I made a special trip to try them.

You can see potatoes, bean skins and pepper sauces in the window, and I can't help but drool!

There are only three ingredients here: potato slices, potato nuggets and bean skins. Potato skins and bean skins are specially prepared by the boss. You can't stop eating it once.

Personally, I think the best thing is the potato nuggets, which are cotton and soft, and very delicious.

The potato slices are crisp and delicious and have a good taste.

Bean skin is the most spicy, but for people with strong flavors, it will still feel a little light, but it is suitable for most people.

When you come to Chongqing, it is definitely a must-miss snack!

Xiao noodles| Chongqing's Soul Snacks

"Every morning, the spicy smell begins to fill the streets and alleys, but at this time, almost all the hot pot restaurants and Sichuan cuisine restaurants all over the city have not yet opened. The source of my mind is the earliest noodle restaurants opened near various residential areas."
--"China on the Bite of China"

(The picture is taken during the previous summer vacation)

"The small face is so small that it is a familiar daily element in Chongqing people's lives; so big that almost everyone in this city with a population of tens of millions loves it."
--"China on the Bite of China"

It is Chongqing's soul-class food. In the morning, you can start with a bowl of noodles and end with a bowl of noodles late at night.

When I was in Chongqing, I would eat a bowl of two or two small noodles every day. It was so delicious ~

--Epilogue--

The first city to travel in 2021 is Chongqing, so what about you?

◆ 30 things to pay attention to when traveling to Chongqing

Travel

Chongqing is a 3D magic city. Don't trust the positioning. Maybe you are on the tenth floor and the driver is on the first floor.
Navigation software may not be useful in Chongqing, so it is better to ask passers-by. If you must use it, remember to open a facade map!
It is recommended to take the Yangtze River cableway in off-season, and take it from the opposite direction, so that the queue will not take long.
Sichuan Beauty has two campuses, one is the old campus in Huangjueping and the other is the new campus in Huxi.
Nanzhishan Bookstore is a bookstore where you can see the scenery. It has both good looks and scholarly charm.
A tree in Nanshan is the best place to enjoy the night view in Chongqing, but there are many people. If you want to grab a good position, it is recommended to go early.
Ciqikou is as crowded as Hongya Cave. It is recommended to go there in the morning to avoid the flow of people; Hongya Cave is only suitable for going there at night.
Chongqing's subway is very convenient. You can complete the subway in one day in the city.
You must check in at the Crown Escalator. It is known as the longest escalator in Asia and the location of "Young You".
In addition to the Graffiti Street, Huangjueping also has a traffic teahouse. It is an old teahouse with a long history and has Chongqing characteristics.
Zhongshuge, the most beautiful bookstore in Chongqing, has a three-dimensional design that is very consistent with Chongqing's temperament.
Eling No. 2 Factory, as the location where "Passing Through Your World" is filmed, is a popular place for young literary and artistic people.
Huasheng Garden Dream Castle is super suitable for taking photos. Girls are heart-warming and are the favorite of fairies.
At Liziba Subway Station, which passes through the residential building, there is a viewing platform on the road opposite Exit A for taking photos.
If you want to take a better picture of Hongya Cave, you don't have to go to Hongya Cave. It's also great to take pictures on Qianzaimen or opposite Hongya Cave.
There is a colorful wall painting on the new campus of Sichuan-American Huxi, a must-go!
Even if you are not interested in history, Zhongshan Fourth Road is still worth owning.
Girls must wear flat shoes!
If you have enough time, the Wansheng Ordovician, which is three hours 'drive from Chongqing, is worth a visit, but can be a day's round trip.
Wulong, around Chongqing, is also very recommended. The beautiful mountains and rivers, magical caves, and secluded Grand Canyon make this trip worthwhile

Food

Jiefangbei Bayi Delicious Street and Guanyinqiao Delicious Street have many specialty snacks.
You don't need to find the ones mentioned online in Chongqing noodles. Those in old streets and alleys often taste good!
A yogurt cow recommended the taste of purple rice dew, which is super delicious.
Restaurants with many queues will be delicious, remember to make an appointment!
Chongqing specialty recommendations: Chen Ma Hua, Hechuan peach slices, hot pot base, Jiangjin rice candy.

Accommodation

It is recommended to live near Jiefangbei, Guanyin Bridge, and Liangkou. The transportation is convenient and the scenic spots are relatively concentrated.
Shapingba area is an area where Chongqing universities gather, and there are many scenic spots, making it more suitable for students and tourists.
If you want to see the river scenery, choose Beibin Road, Jialing River Riverside Road, and Yangtze River Binjiang Road.
If you get up early and go to the airport to catch a plane, it is better to live in Jiangbei area.
There are many characteristic B & Bs in Chongqing, which are very suitable for staying when visiting together. You can try a river view room.
Because Chongqing is close to Chengdu, it is so convenient to go to Chongqing. Although I have been there many times, I have a different feeling every time. I still like Chongqing very much ~
