If you're looking to experience Chongqing's most magical realism, this itinerary is a must! Staying at the FunGee Riverview Hotel, located next to Hongyadong Cave and boasting stunning river views, this itinerary combines the city's nightscape with its spectacular transportation. From the hotel, you'll be just a few steps from the bustling Jiefangbei Monument, and then just around the corner for a breathtaking journey to the Liziba Monorail viewing platform. This itinerary's key takeaway is its convenient transportation and incredibly comfortable hotels.

Recommended Attractions:
1. Liziba Monorail Observation Deck
Address: No. 62, Liziba Main Street, Yuzhong District, Chongqing
Opening Hours: 6:30 AM - 11:00 PM year-round
This area is known as Chongqing's "magical calling card." The subway and light rail line passes directly through the center of the residential building. Every time a train arrives, countless tourists snap photos with their cameras, making it a must-see for anyone wanting to check in to Chongqing. Visiting in the morning or evening is recommended to avoid the crowds. Transportation from Hongyadong and Jiefangbei is convenient. Take the subway directly to Liziba Station, and the observation deck is a short walk away. It's very user-friendly. There's an official photo booth and giant photo frame on site. For photography enthusiasts, don't forget to bring your flash or ultra-wide-angle lens!

2. FunGee Riverview Hotel (Chongqing Hongyadong Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street Branch)
Address: 21F, Building C, Goldman Sachs Chuangfu Center, 113 Binjiang Road
This riverview hotel is highly recommended! Upon arrival, you can enjoy the night view of the Jialing River. The twinkling lights outside the window are truly relaxing. The hotel's amenities are incredibly smart, with voice control, complimentary drinks, a mini-fridge, and thoughtful snacks like popcorn, ice cream, and nighttime porridge. You won't want to leave! The staff is also very attentive and responsive to any questions. The hotel is right next to Hongya Cave, so you can take photos of the cave's nightscape from the doorstep. Downstairs, you'll find a pedestrian street offering a wide range of dining, entertainment, and fun activities. Breakfast is open until 1 PM, so you don't have to worry about staying in. The freshly cooked Chongqing noodles are a must-try. The only caveat is that some guests have reported the soundproofing is average, but if you're mainly looking to explore and only consider the hotel a place to sleep, it won't be a problem at all.

Practical tips for your trip (based on my personal experience):
- From Hongya Cave to Liziba, I recommend taking the subway. Chongqing's transportation is so convenient these days that you rarely have to worry about getting lost.
- The hotel allows for late breakfast, so you can sleep in naturally. Free laundry and drying services are also available, making it very convenient for extended stays. - Comfortable shoes are essential, as Hongyadong and the surrounding pedestrian streets require some leg strength. Remember to bring a sunshade, as Chongqing can experience occasional sudden rain.
- If noise insulation is a concern during your stay, please contact the front desk in advance to adjust your room type.
- For photos of the Liziba Monorail crossing the building, it's recommended to plan your route well in advance, as the subway arrives at the station to capture the perfect "subway crossing" moment!

Transportation & Food Recommendations:
- Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street near Hongyadong offers a variety of delicious food. We recommend trying traditional hot pot, Chongqing noodles, and hot and sour noodles.
- Walk from the hotel to the Liziba Light Rail, or take Metro Line 2 for a quicker arrival. After your check-in, enjoy a visit to the nearby snack shops.
