🌆 重庆 Chongqing – The Mountain City That Defies Gravity 🚇🌉🔥
Chongqing isn’t just a city — it’s a vertical experience. Built on cliffs, hills, and fog-covered rivers, Chongqing feels more like a futuristic maze than a traditional city. And no trip here is complete without visiting Hongyadong, Qiansimen Bridge, and the famous Liziba Metro Station — three of the city’s most mind-blowing landmarks.
⸻
🏮 Hongyadong (洪崖洞)
This 11-story stilted building clings to the mountain and overlooks the Jialing River — by day it’s a bustling street food market, and by night it becomes a glowing cyberpunk palace straight out of a movie. Think: Spirited Away meets Blade Runner.
💡 Go after sunset for the lights — and don’t miss the 4th-floor entrance that feels like the ground floor due to Chongqing’s insane elevation shifts.
⸻
🌉 Qiansimen Bridge (千厮门大桥)
Chongqing’s iconic red bridge offers panoramic views of Hongyadong and both rivers. Walk across it at night for stunning skyline photos. It’s also the best spot for drone shots and romantic selfies.
⸻
🚇 Liziba Metro Station (李子坝轻轨站)
Where else in the world does a train pass through a residential building? Stand on the observation platform and wait for the light rail to fly through — it’s surreal and completely unique to Chongqing.

✅ Travel Tips:
• Best photo time: sunset to 9pm
• Use the CRT Light Rail to get around — Line 2 to Liziba is a must
• Try Chongqing hotpot after sightseeing — spicy, numbing, unforgettable
Chongqing is a city that doesn’t follow the rules of space — and that’s exactly what makes it magical.
