Lianglukou Crown Escalator

As a girl from Chongqing and a so-called professional photographer, it would be a bit embarrassing to say that I have never been to the Crown Escalator.

After Chongqing became a "web-famous Chongqing," the cable car price increased, and it's no longer the simple transportation option you used to be, where you just swipe your bus card and get on. However, the Crown Escalator remains the same.

The normal fare is 2 yuan, and 1.8 yuan with a Chongqing Bus Card. This is the one-way fare. To get on and off and back again, you need to pay twice and swipe your card twice.

Entering from Lianglukou, you will go down to Caiyuanba Station. Going up from Caiyuanba Station will lead you to Lianglukou Station.

There is a lonely Hong Kong style in the Crown Escalator, and you can take a blockbuster photo in minutes.

The premise is: Pay attention! Safety!

It's 112 meters long, 52.5 meters high, and has a 30-degree slope. If you're afraid of heights, it might be a little scary, so be careful when taking photos, videos, or posing.

I have to emphasize that I ate some noodles at the entrance of Lianglukou. They were called Wanzhou Zhajiangmian and they were really not tasty...

It is one of Chongqing's must-see destinations and is considered the best in China. The TV show "Go Fighting" has made it even more popular.

In fact, I believe that every tourist who comes to Chongqing will be curious and go to see what it is like. But after coming here, they will be satisfied after experiencing it, without any regrets. I am the same, haha.

But in fact, the escalator is just a means of transportation. You can buy tickets or use bus cards (discounts).

There is an introduction to the escalator at the entrance. The escalator is 112 meters long, 52.5 meters high, 1.3 meters wide, and has a slope of 30 degrees. It is the longest slope escalator in China and the second longest in Asia.

After the experience, I didn't feel that scary. However, the supporting facilities and equipment felt like they needed to be updated, as they were a bit old.

In short, if you come to Chongqing and pass by Lianglukou, you can come and see it and experience it. It is far away, so it is not recommended to rush to see it.

The Crown Escalator is located next to Lianglukou Station on the Chongqing Rail Transit Network, connecting Lianglukou and Caiyuanba Station. Before I even went there, I'd heard it was the second longest escalator in Asia, so I'd always wanted to see it.

Take the metro to Lianglukou Station and walk toward Exit 4. You'll see the entrance to the Crown Escalator before you even exit. This escalator is part of Chongqing's transportation system, making it a convenient way for countless Chongqing residents to get around. You need to pay a coin or swipe your bus card to ride it, which costs two yuan per person. It was also my first time riding a paid escalator.

The escalator is really long, and you can't see the end at a glance. I felt a little scared when I looked down from the escalator. The escalator is 150 meters long and 64 meters vertically. It runs very fast. A trip takes about 2 minutes. I was not satisfied after riding it from top to bottom once, so I spent two dollars to ride it from bottom to top again.

The ride was truly novel, fun, and a bit thrilling. It really allowed me to experience the unique character of Chongqing, a mountain city, and its unique topography and transportation. The escalator felt quite old, and it had a distinctly vintage feel. Taking photos on the escalator was quite cool, but please be careful.

I highly recommend going there to experience it. It only takes 5 minutes and 4 yuan to play twice. You can experience a feeling that you can't experience anywhere else.

Remember to hold on to the handrails when riding, pay attention to safety, and be careful if you are afraid of heights.

Because of my tight schedule, I almost skipped a particular spot, but I discovered the Lianglukou subway station is truly magical. Whether it's food or entertainment, it seems like it's always there, so it made sense to go. It's two yuan each way, not too expensive. You might initially think, "It's just a two-minute escalator ride, what's the point?" I was like that too. I peeked in at the elevator entrance and thought it was a waste of two yuan. My friend didn't want to go either (because the pictures in the attraction guide were so shabby). Ultimately, I went, thinking, "It's only a two-yuan loss."

But seriously, comrades, if you're in Chongqing, I highly recommend the cable car and the escalator. After all, these two unique modes of transportation aren't something you'll find in just any city! A half-hour mountain hike takes just two minutes, and then you'll realize you're a bit scared of escalators when you get on the elevator and look down. After all, we use elevators to handle such vertical height differences.

Put away your things before going in and only take your camera. Portraits here are very effective, the depth of field is very good, and they look good no matter how you take them.

The Crown Escalator, located at Lianglukou in Yuzhong District, is a unique feature of Chongqing's mountainous city. It connects the Crown Building on one end to Caiyuanba Railway Station on the other. The escalator is approximately 112 meters long and takes about 2.5 minutes to operate.

The escalator is much faster than ordinary escalators, and with a 30-degree inclination angle, it is very visually stimulating.

In addition to the Yangtze River Cableway and the sightseeing light rail, Chongqing also has the Crown Escalator. The cable car has long been priced at 30 yuan per person by tourists, with queues often lasting at least an hour. Popular light rail stations are also crowded with people checking in. Fortunately, we have the Crown Escalator, which is priced at 2 yuan, making it a joy to ride!

Please be careful when taking photos. The elevator shakes slightly, and it is easy to fall to the ground if you are not steady. Don't let it cause a tragedy just for the sake of posing... (I think everyone can spend the 30 yuan for the cable car and play here until they vomit...)

The slope is really wide. If you don't know, you might think it's some kind of amusement park project. Haha, it's an ordinary commuting tool in Chongqing, but it has become popular. It's interesting.

It costs two yuan per ride. After I got on, I wanted to get off, but an older woman stopped me and told me to put in another two yuan before I could get off. Haha, I would be happy to put in twenty yuan. It was so fun.

There is a street inside the Crown Escalator. It is really a different world. Chongqing, you are worthy of being a 5D Magic City.

It's truly unique. My first time riding it, I was a little nervous, and my palms were sweating. If you go down, you'll be directly inside Lianglukou subway station. If you go up, you'll find the entrance to the underground passage below. I recommend going down the underground passage first, then taking the stairs. It's a long staircase surrounded by small restaurants and hotels. It's built just off Chongqing Station (Chongqing's oldest train station), and there's also a People's Police Monument.

Take Line 1 to Lianglukou and follow the signs on the wall to the Crown Escalator. It's incredibly long and steep, so be careful when riding it. I took a round trip for two yuan, and it was a completely different experience. I was a little worried when I looked back on the way up, especially when it was going up.

It is connected to the subway station [Lianglukou], 2 yuan/person/one way, it is recommended to prepare cash in advance

The same route as "Better Days" (with more walking): Take the subway to [Liziba] Station, check in the light rail through the building → Follow the navigation to walk to [Lianglukou] Subway Station (go through Xiangyang Tunnel halfway, only the east side is pedestrian-friendly! Lianglukou Subway Station is right after the tunnel) → Enter the Crown Escalator (going up) → Walk across the Caiyuanba Yangtze River Bridge → Arrive at [Tongyuanju] Subway Station. The whole journey is complete. After taking photos, you can take the bus from Tongyuanju Subway Station to the next attraction

The Crown Escalator, Asia's second-longest single-stage escalator, is 112 meters long, 52.5 meters high, and has a 30-degree slope. While considered a simple form of transportation by locals, it's well worth the experience. Currently, it doesn't accept mobile phone QR codes. Cash is 2 yuan per trip, and bus cards offer a 10% discount.

As soon as I stepped onto the escalator, I felt like I was moving at 2 times the speed. I couldn't see the end at a glance. It went from dark to bright and then back to dark. The surroundings felt a little old. I only dared to take pictures forward with my camera or mobile phone. I felt uneasy when I looked back.

The Crown Escalator at Lianglukou is an extra-long escalator with no end in sight. It's approximately 112 meters long, 52.5 meters high, and has a 30-degree incline. The journey takes about 2.5 minutes. A one-way ticket requires 2 yuan in cash, and staff will collect the money at the entrance and provide change.

The Lianglukou Crown Escalator is Asia's second-longest single-stage, sloped escalator. The escalator requires a 2 RMB ticket. They accept bus cards but not Alipay, so I had to pay in cash, which was a good thing I had some money with me. The escalator feels just like any other escalator in a shopping mall, but don't bother with your phone. Look up and take in the scenery. Sunlight streams through the ceiling, creating a crisscross pattern of three-dimensional lines. The color scheme of the walls reminds me of a classic film, perhaps even a sci-fi one.

It's truly impressively tall, but visitors might be a bit disappointed. Besides this, it's just a short drive from the train station and Caiyuanba Bus Station, so people use it as a mere tool. It's probably not recommended for those who visit specifically to check in, unless you're planning to visit nearby attractions.

I stayed at a Home Inn near Niujiaotuo, got up early, had some famous noodles at Lianglukou, and then walked to the Crown Escalator... I experienced the locals' mode of transportation in this mountain city. It was quite interesting!

This is a popular online attraction, but it's nothing special except for a long elevator, which is 112 meters long and costs 2 yuan per ride. Chongqing's public transportation, in addition to subways and buses, also includes cable cars and elevators, which are rare in other cities.

I don't think it's necessary to go. I feel that the escalator is not as fast as it is said to be, not as shaky, and not as scary... The subway station in Moscow feels deeper and faster than this escalator. It costs two yuan to go up and two yuan to go down. There is a train station outside. There is not much to see. It is not necessary to go there specifically. However, it is quite close to Liziba. If you have more time and have never seen a long escalator, you can go there.

The longest elevator in Asia, a super exciting experience

It's quite boring. It's just a place to punch in. It costs two yuan to go up and two yuan to go down. It's just a little longer than a normal elevator.

It's worth going, you can experience the life of the locals~

It's worth a visit. It's a rare sight in other cities. It costs 2 yuan one way (1.8 yuan by card). I didn't feel anything when I first went down. But when I looked back halfway down, it was really scary. It was very steep.

It's the kind where you can't clearly see where the end is in the video, and you can't see where it ends before you buy the ticket. Then after buying the ticket and entering, it doesn't seem very long... I don't know why others say it's a tourist attraction and recommend that people who are afraid of heights don't go. Scariness level: Try standing on a regular desk. If you find it difficult to breathe and your heart rate speeds up, you can try taking the escalator, because I think standing on a desk is much more thrilling 😂

😂 Well, I can only say that the escalator is very long. Because I had to take the light rail, I had no choice but to take the return trip. One way 2 yuan

The Crown Escalator is a major intersection escalator in Chongqing, connecting Lianglukou and Caiyuanba Railway Station. It is a unique feature of Chongqing's transportation system. With a total length of 112 meters, a width of 1.3 meters, a height of 52.7 meters, and a 30-degree incline, it is the second-longest single-stage escalator on a slope in Asia.

It costs 2 yuan to take the elevator. It is very old, but there is no need to use it for sightseeing.

You can experience the internet-famous escalator for just two dollars. It’s quite good and very long.

It’s okay, the second longest escalator in Asia. If you have time, you can go and see it as a souvenir.

The frequent and extremely convenient flow of people between the two places has earned it the nickname "money transport machine" by the locals. It may be the most profitable escalator in the world today.

Chongqing, known as the 8D city, boasts a unique form of transportation, not just the usual transportation options found in other cities. The Crown Escalator takes two and a half minutes to complete, requiring a 2-yuan coin to board, much like a bus. We rode from the top to the bottom, and by the time we exited, the entrance was no longer visible.

After visiting Liziba Station, I didn't stop and went to Lianglukou subway station. I followed the crowd and found the Crown Escalator. This escalator actually charges a fee of two yuan. Before you can come to your senses, you are already standing on the long escalator. The escalator is the second longest ascending slope escalator in Asia, with a total length of 112 meters. Standing on it gives you a feeling of traveling through time and space. "Go Fighting" was once filmed here. Do you still remember the scene where the little sheep Zhang once asked the sisters for the longest eggplant while standing on the escalator? If you don't remember it, it doesn't matter. It will be shown to you here at the Crown Escalator. Haha, does it sound like advertising? The exit of the escalator is connected to a train station. The environment is a bit dirty and messy, so after visiting this attraction, you can spend another 2 yuan and return the same way. I guess few locals are willing to spend 2 yuan to experience this escalator~

Experience the Crown Escalator, which is actually just an escalator, but it is very long and steep, and a bit dizzy.

Exiting Caiyuanba Exit 3, signposts guide you along the way. Once you reach the escalator, a ticket vendor will sell you tickets for 2 yuan each way. The escalator runs much faster than a typical escalator. As soon as you step onto the steps, you feel a pep in your step. The escalator itself is so deep, you'll be amazed at the complexity of Chongqing's transportation options.

The special thing about the Crown Escalator is probably that it is the second longest escalator in Asia. Well, it is indeed very long, but it is just an escalator after all.

It's just a little longer than the shabby escalators in most old shopping malls.

I really felt the cruelty of reality, which was quite different from the pictures on the Internet. It felt like old Hong Kong. It was really long, 2.5 minutes in total. I didn't dare to look back, and I felt a little dizzy looking down.

The Crown Escalator is a large escalator at an intersection in Chongqing, connecting Lianglukou and Caiyuanba Railway Station. It is a unique transportation feature of Chongqing. A one-way fare is 2 yuan.

When you take the Crown Escalator, you find yourself at ground level, and then when you come out of the escalator after 112 meters, you find yourself at ground level again.

It feels very wonderful

The Crown Escalator is one of Chongqing's three distinctive transportation features. It connects Lianglukou and Caiyuanba Station and is the second longest single-stage slope escalator in Asia.

The escalator is located at Lianglukou Station on Line 1. After exiting the station, follow the signs to reach the escalator's downstairs. The one-way fare is 2 yuan, and you can use the bus card. I once again felt that it was wise to apply for a bus card.

I didn't feel satisfied after riding it from the top down once, so I rode it from the bottom up again. It felt really long, the slope was really steep, and it was really old. I felt like it was a product of the 1980s. It is worth experiencing.

An episode of the TV series "Go Fighting" was filmed in Chongqing! One of the challenges featured this escalator, Asia's longest, which became a huge hit! From the escalator, you can't even see the top. A one-way trip costs 2 yuan per person. Get to Exit 4 of the Lianglukou Light Rail Station, and you'll see signs directing you there.

The entire journey takes about 2 minutes. This escalator is faster than usual, so be careful and don't take risks just to take pictures.

Warm reminder: The lighting environment of the escalator is really poor, and the light is also very strange. The travel time is limited, so if you can use your mobile phone to take pictures, you should take more pictures with your mobile phone. We came to this conclusion from the horror ghost movie photos we took later.

It's spectacular, it feels like there's no end in sight, it's very shocking!

It's a dirty and messy place at the bottom. Unless you have nothing to do, there's really no need to join in the fun.

This internet-famous attraction is truly unbearable to complain about. The first time we took the elevator, we were charged a fee, and we even took a round trip. It was only 2 yuan per trip, just for the claim of being the second longest in Asia. We spent ages searching for the elevator, and finally entered through an entrance in China Plaza.

Do not recommend this "attraction"

This escalator costs 2 yuan. It's really... high... and... long...

After we got off, we immediately spent 2 yuan to get back on so we could experience both directions. For locals, taking the escalator is a means of transportation, but for tourists like us, the escalator is a tourist attraction, and many people come to check it out.

It costs 4 RMB round trip, it's worth the experience.

The most boring tourist attraction in Chongqing, you have to pay for the elevator the first time...

A large escalator at an intersection in Chongqing connects two intersections and Chongqing Railway Caiyuanba Station, and is one of Chongqing's characteristic transportation features.

The Crown Escalator is a major escalator at an intersection in Chongqing, connecting Lianglukou and Caiyuanba Railway Station. It is a unique feature of Chongqing's transportation system. A one-way fare is 2 yuan. Construction began in February 1993 and the escalator was completed and put into operation on February 18, 1996. It is 112 meters long, 1.3 meters wide, and has a height of 52.7 meters. It has an incline of 30 degrees, travels at 0.75 meters per second, and has a full journey time of 2 minutes and 30 seconds. It consists of three escalators: an ascending escalator, a descending escalator, and a backup escalator. Each escalator has a maximum passenger capacity of 13,000 passengers per hour, making it the second-longest single-stage escalator on a slope in Asia.

You have to pay to ride the Crown Escalator.

Fortunately, it is only a few dollars, usually half of it

Come to the so-called "Internet celebrity" [Crown Escalator], 2 yuan per trip, it's better not to go

Nowadays, there are many escalators in China that are longer and more beautiful than this one.

For locals, it is just a means of transportation. It takes about 20 minutes to go up and down. The elevator is really long.

2 yuan per time, about 1.2 minutes! It doesn't matter whether you try it or not. In addition, the first shop that sells fruits and snacks is very rude! She changed the fruit I picked, and then I went to find her. She asked me to take it from her, saying that she actually picked it herself. When she was full, she even removed a few, and there were several missing. It was a very bad impression.

One of the most bizarre means of transportation, it's worth a try

The Crown Escalator costs 2 yuan one way. You can experience it. Only by sitting from the bottom up can you take a picture of the middle.

The elevator is really high and shaking, and my friends who are afraid of heights are shaking.

The Crown Escalator is really just an escalator, a really long escalator... This is clearly a clickbait title! How can it even be listed as one of the top ten attractions?!

This is the longest sloped escalator in China and the second longest in Asia. The longest in Asia is said to be in North Korea, but it seems you won't be able to experience it anytime soon. The 112-meter-long elevator, with a 30-degree slope, connects Lianglukou and Caiyuanba Railway Station. Perhaps only in 8D fantasy cities like Chongqing can such a large elevator be found in China. There are three elevators, each capable of transporting 13,500 passengers per hour. Renovations are reportedly underway soon, so if you're interested, check it out now.

It was afternoon when we arrived and the sun was shining brightly. The one-way fare was two yuan in cash, and the ride was indeed three or four minutes long, so the local aunt sat directly on the elevator. The middle of the elevator was made of transparent glass, which let in light, which was also a magical experience.

It is the second longest single-stage escalator in Asia. The escalator is much faster than ordinary escalators, but even so, it still takes more than 2 minutes to reach the full length.

It's interesting, very long, and I feel dizzy when I do it. If you can't find it, ask the light rail staff and just follow the signs. It costs two yuan per person per trip.

Between Lianglukou and Caiyuanba, if you don't want to climb the fatal slope, take the elevator. The bus card is 1.8 yuan and can be used to transfer to buses and subways. The elevator runs very fast, and it's a bit nervous if you don't pull it properly.

It's a really long escalator, and the staff reminded me very well.

Take bus No. 829 from Eling No. 2 Factory and you will get directly to Lianglukou. Find the subway entrance and there will be a sign for the Crown Escalator. Follow the sign and you will reach the Crown Escalator without any effort.

It is very long, but not as steep or scary as rumored. I spent four dollars for a round trip ride, which was pretty fun.

It is a special transportation in Chongqing. It costs two yuan to ride it. You can take the downward escalator at the second exit of Metro Line 1. There are a lot of people on the escalator like me holding up their mobile phones to take pictures. They are obviously from other places. The locals just use this escalator as a means of transportation.

The ticketing is unmanned, with coin-operated service. The price is 2 yuan per person per visit. It's best to have plenty of change. Although there are people on hand to give you change, you'll inevitably end up with a lot of loose change. Looking down at it is a little scary.

A two-and-a-half-minute escalator that would make people afraid of heights. When I got out, I was actually on the first floor. The difference in height was really huge. Then I climbed countless steps to the so-called ground. I never knew which floor I was on. I climbed the stairs for a long time. I laughed and said that I didn't have altitude sickness in Tibet, but I almost got altitude sickness after climbing the stairs in Chongqing.

One of Chongqing's unique transportation features is its long escalators, a highlight of the city's unique topography. A one-way fare is 2 yuan, with a fee for both going up and down.

There are three escalators, each 112 meters long, 52.7 meters high, and 1.3 meters wide, with a 30-degree slope. The journey takes 2 minutes and 30 seconds. The Crown Escalator is the second longest in Asia. Because it was built a long time ago, it looks a bit old. There is a fee for riding it, 3 yuan one way. It's just a daily means of transportation for locals, nothing special, so if you're busy, you can skip it.

The escalator is indeed very long, and both sides of the escalator are covered with photos of the variety show "Go Fighting" when it came here.

I remember that there seemed to be an escalator as high as three or four floors in a shopping mall in Guangzhou, but the difference between the two was that the escalator at the intersection was built in a narrow passage, and the limited field of vision also created a feeling of length and depth of the escalator; but the escalator in the Guangzhou shopping mall was different, it was rising from the ground, connecting directly from the first floor to the third and fourth floors, with open space all around, and there were reference points for each next floor, so you wouldn't have the illusion of the escalator's length because you felt like you were always going down.

The riding instructions state: Due to the steep slope and high speed, it is recommended that drunk people, hypertensive patients, people with acrophobia, mental patients, and critically ill patients do not ride.

It sounds quite dangerous, but it was actually okay when I went down from the top. It didn't feel very fast, and I wasn't so scared that I didn't even dare to raise my camera.

But when I was going up, I tried to look back, and then my legs felt weak for some reason.

Since our hot pot restaurant was right next to the "Crown Escalator," we decided to check it out. It's a five-minute walk to the left from the hotel. This escalator connects Lianglukou to Chongqing Caiyuanba Railway Station. Alternatively, you can climb the hill to Lianglukou. It's similar to the Mid-Levels Escalator in Hong Kong, but the former charges a fee (2 yuan) while the latter is free. The former is steep, enclosed, and dated, while the latter is gentler and more open to the street. It's certainly quite long, making it Asia's longest escalator.

The Crown Escalator. There aren't any other particularly exciting attractions around here, so I came here specifically for the elevator. It cost 2 yuan. I forgot how long it was, but it was quite long.

It is said to be the second longest slope escalator in Asia. Chongqing Station is right below the escalator. As you can imagine, Chongqing is truly worthy of the name of a mountain city.

The escalator is so steep and long that you can't see the end at all.

The Crown Escalator is really high and steep, but not too amazing. It costs two yuan one way.

The Crown Escalator is even more remarkable. Enter at Lianglukou and exit at Caiyuanba. As you exit, you'll see the historic Chongqing Old Railway Station. Looking back, you'll realize you've actually run from the top of the mountain to the bottom. A two-minute ride covers a half-hour mountain journey, and for a 2-yuan fare, it really feels like buying time.

This escalator is incredibly long, reaching a vertical height of 64 meters and a length of 150 meters. It's tilted at a 30-degree angle, and it's a bit faster than a typical escalator. I turned back to take a few photos on the way up and realized I was actually feeling a bit dizzy. The only thing that makes me dizzy is a ship, and the second thing is this giant escalator. It's incredible!

I paid the fare at the escalator entrance, two yuan per person, one way. First, we went down. Down below, we found a commercial street selling snacks, clothes, and local specialties. The exit was Caiyuanba Railway Station. We paid another two yuan each to go back up. My friend asked me what the fun was, and after a while, I figured it was just spending eight yuan to stand still for five minutes.

It's located at one of the exits of the Lianglukou subway station. The slope is 30°, and the total length is 112 meters, the second steepest in Asia. Standing at the escalator, you can't see the end. It's faster than a regular escalator, takes about 2-3 minutes, and costs 2 yuan one way (bring cash). I'd read in travel guides that people with acrophobia shouldn't ride this, but it's actually quite comfortable. Just don't stare too much at what's in front of you, take some photos and videos, and it's gone by quickly. Mr. Lu and I even filmed a video imitating TikTok, but the transition wasn't quite right, so it was a bit funny. For safety's sake, it's best to hold onto the handrails the entire time.
