🌶️ Chongqing 3D Magic Guide! 8D City Walking Tour🚠  
🔥 Must-Visit Reasons  
The top-tier mountain city! A cyberpunk metropolis where hotpot meets monorails piercing through buildings!  
🚇 Transportation Tips  
📍 Monorail covers the entire main city area! Recommended lines: 1/2/3/6  
📍 Take Line 10 from Jiangbei Airport T3 directly to downtown  
🚶 Walking Route  
1️⃣ Liziba Monorail Station  
Marvel at the monorail passing through a building! Take forced-perspective "eating the monorail" photos at Exit A viewing platform  
📸 Tips: Best lighting before 10 AM  
2️⃣ Liberation Monument → Hongya Cave  
Liberation Monument: Chongqing's landmark! Snap photos then head to Bayi Delicious Street  
Hongya Cave: Real-life "Spirited Away," stunning night views but super crowded!  
⚠️ Avoid scams: Don’t fall for "fast track" offers—enter via Cangbai Road side gate  
3️⃣ Yangtze River Cableway  
The "sky bus"! Recommended to board from Nan'an Shangxinjie Station (less crowded)  
🕒 Hours: 7:30 AM–10:30 PM (best night views after 7:00 PM)  
🍲 Food Blitz  
▪️ Sister Pei’s Hotpot: Tear-inducing spicy nine-grid hotpot  
▪️ Haoyoulai Sour & Spicy Noodles: Must-try at Liberation Monument! ¥8/bowl  
▪️ One Yogurt Cow: Purple rice yogurt—cool and refreshing to counter the spice  
📸 Hidden Photo Spots  
① Grand Theater Riverside: Capture Hongya Cave + Qiansimen Bridge panorama  
② Baixiangju: Viral residential complex for cableway-through-building shots  
💥 Scam Prevention Guide  
✔️ Frequent GPS failures—ask locals for directions  
✔️ Avoid street photographers at Hongya Cave  
✔️ Order mild spice for hotpot (Chongqing’s "mild" = extra spicy elsewhere)
