I just got off the boat and I can't wait to share!
Don't 🙅 just focus on Hongyadong when you come to Chongqing.
This time, a local friend took me on the Two Rivers Ferry and the Peninsula Ferry, and they were truly amazing!
1️⃣ Two Rivers Ferry
This is a unique form of water transportation in old Chongqing. In the past, ferries served as a vital link connecting life on both sides of the river.✌️ I recommend boarding the ship 🚢 in the afternoon to watch the sunset glow on the Qiansimen Bridge. It's incredibly atmospheric, and your social media posts are sure to get tons of likes.👍🏻
👀 Departing from Pier 2 at Hongyadong, you can cross the Yangtze River to Danzishi Old Street in just a few minutes. There's a delicious mango shaved ice shop near the Danzishi pier.😋 From there, walk to the Changjiahui Viewing Platform to admire the magical dividing line where the two rivers meet.

2️⃣ Peninsula Ferry
From Hongyadong to Jiulongpo Ferry Terminal, 🌉 the ferry passes by the Grand Theatre, Chaotian Yangfan, Dongshuimen Yangtze River Bridge, Huguang Guild Hall, Yangtze River Cableway, Nanyu Park on Nanbin Road, Shanhu Dam, Chongqing Yangtze River Bridge, Caiyuanba Railway Station, Egongyan Yangtze River Bridge, and the Fuxian Bridge. 
👉 I suggest first taking a round trip on the "Two Rivers Ferry" from Hongyadong Pier. After returning to Hongyadong Pier, take the "Peninsula Ferry" (one-way) to Jiulongpo Ferry Terminal.🛳️
⚠️ Tips:
✔️ Remember to wear non-slip shoes~
✔️ The "Sunset Viewing Platform" on the second deck + the retro green leather seats in the cabin are super photogenic.
When you're in Chongqing, you must experience these two retro ferry routes. It's a different way to experience the magic of 8D Chongqing!‼️
