Source Scenic Area (Baoji, Shaanxi) The river’s upper reaches near the source in the Qinling Mountains are lush, mountainous, often with forest, waterfalls, clear mountain streams. Good for hiking, nature walks.
Cities along its Course Towns such as Guangyuan, Langzhong, Nanchong, and ultimately Chongqing – each give different river‑scenery vistas (urban & natural).
Chongqing “Two Rivers Night Cruise” One popular activity is the night cruise in Chongqing, going along the Jialing River and also where it meets the Yangtze: views of city lights, bridges, architecture.
Bridges / Riverside Promenades In urban Chongqing, there are major bridges across the Jialing, + riverside road & parks which give good vantage points for river + city skyline scenery. Example: Hongyancun Jialing River Bridge and other structures.
