Chongqing has A CITY WALL!

Attraction: City wall (Tongyuan) of Chongqing The Tongyuan City Wall, which dates back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, was originally built for defense purposes, surrounding the old city to protect it from invasions. Today, remnants of the wall stand as a testament to the city's historical significance and are an important cultural site.

The site also offers panoramic views of the surrounding area, giving visitors a sense of the historical layout of Chongqing.

🌅 Luori Tea Collection (落日野茶) in Chongqing - the perfect sunset spot! Finally made it to the legendary 落日野茶 and it's pure magic! This is where urban skyscrapers meet the setting sun, and nature shows its incredible beauty. How to get there: the restaurant is located at 南岸区一天门街涂山派出所莲花村社区警务室西北50米 in Nan'an District. From the nearest metro station, you can take a taxi or walk for 15-20 minutes. The venue is open from 1:00 PM until late at night. What to order: we got the tea set for 150 yuan for two people and were very satisfied. You can also order the barbecue set for 350 yuan. Nice feature - you can sit as long as you want without time limits. When to arrive: definitely come by 5:00 PM! After 6:00 PM all the best tables with panoramic views are already taken. The ideal time to visit is sunset, which happens around 6:45-7:00 PM. Photo opportunities: there's a special platform on top for professional photo shoots, but the queue starts forming by 6:00 PM. After 7:30 PM, beautiful lighting turns on for the bridge and buildings - also a great moment for photos. There are many similar tea venues on the hilltop, but 落日 is considered the most popular. This place is a must-visit for anyone who wants to see the city in all its glory! #Chongqing #localguides #chongqingtravel #chongqingchina #chongqing
