The focus of this trip, of cou

The focus of this trip, of course, is to explore the mother city of Chongqing - the Yuzhong Peninsula. Many friends who come to Chongqing will definitely take pictures of Hongya Cave and Liberation Monument, but in fact, Yuzhong is one of the areas with the deepest historical and cultural heritage in Chongqing, and is also the most prosperous and classic landmark in the city. This time I chose to stay at FunGee Joyful River View Hotel (Chongqing Hongyadong Liberation Monument Pedestrian Street Branch), the biggest reason is that its location is amazing, staying there can easily enjoy the city's most essential location and night view.

The FunGee Joyful River View Hotel itself is next to Hongya Cave, and it only takes a few minutes to walk to the Liberation Monument. The hotel is located on the 21st floor of Building C of Goldman Sachs Creative Wealth Center (113 Binjiang Road). At night, you can see the night view of the Jialing River directly out of the window. More conveniently, the 22nd floor of the hotel can also directly reach the Kuixing Building, one of the important photo spots in Hongya Cave, do not have to go out and queue up the stairs, there are many fewer people to take pictures.

Many people who come to Chongqing line up Hongya Cave with the nearby pedestrian street, one of the most classic celebrity spots on the Yuzhong Peninsula. Hongya Cave is built on a mountain. When lit up at night, it looks like the world in Hayao Miyazaki's animation. It is not only a photo spot, but also contains the beauty of Chongqing's old wharf culture and stilt buildings. The nearby Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street is one of the earliest modern business districts in Chongqing.

Speaking of the hotel itself, guests like the smart and courteous room facilities. Intelligent voice control, free drinks, a small fridge are all fully stocked, as well as free popcorn, ice cream and good night porridge, and you will feel at home when you return to the hotel. The best part is the free laundry and drying service, which is great for long-distance travelers and can be used with peace of mind. The breakfast service is very attentive, and there are freshly cooked Chongqing noodles. In addition to eating a bowl of authentic flavor in the morning, breakfast is done until one o'clock in the afternoon.

In terms of environment, the FunGee Joy Hotel focuses on quietness and comfort, without being too noisy. The view of the river outside the window is really great, perfect for family, couples, and honeymooners. If you have to talk about the disadvantages, some guests have reflected that the hotel room soundproofing may not be the best, sometimes between the floors some sounds will be heard, but the staff service attitude is really good, basically any demand is quickly handled. Cleanliness and hygiene were in place, overall peace of mind.

Tips for traveling: Living near Hongya Cave, it is recommended to go out and walk along the river at dusk to enjoy the unique layering of the Yuzhong Peninsula from day to night. If you want to learn more about the culture of the area, you can visit the Three Gorges Museum and the People's Auditorium, which are historical places in the mother city of Chongqing. Then walk around Lai Fu Shi Plaza, where the all-glass flyover overlooks the night view of Chongqing, which is great for taking pictures.

Remember to check the room type and window view when booking a hotel, the river view room feels particularly different. The Peninsula Hotel in Yuzhong is generally convenient, but it is more expensive during the peak season. It is recommended to book in advance. The climate in Chongqing has a large temperature difference. Be careful to bring a jacket. It is especially cool at night. If you have enough time, you can also arrange a night tour of the Jialing River or Yangtze River to experience the riverside style of the “mountain city”.
