Chongqing check-in | Explore the thrilling blend of old and new in Yuzhong District! 🚏

✨Yuzhong is the beating heart of Chongqing — a vertical city where tradition and modernity collide in the most spectacular way. Start your journey with a ride on the iconic Yangtze River Cableway, where you glide high above the city, watching the sun reflect off towering skyscrapers like Raffles City and VOCO Hotel. It’s a postcard-perfect moment you won’t want to miss! Wander into the maze-like neighborhoods and discover a different face of Chongqing — weathered apartment blocks, clothes swaying on balconies, and locals gathered on open corridors watching the skyline. It’s like stepping into a living movie set. ✨This is where urban charm meets human warmth. Take a moment at Liziba Station, where a train goes straight through a residential building — another surreal moment that shows how Chongqing adapts space creatively. By evening, sip tea at a local teahouse hidden among the concrete jungle, where you’ll hear spicy Sichuan dialect, see locals playing mahjong, and feel the heartbeat of this mountainous metropolis. There’s a raw, layered energy in Yuzhong you won’t find anywhere else. 📍Location: Yuzhong District, central Chongqing — between the Yangtze and Jialing rivers 🕒Best Time to Visit: Late afternoon to evening for the golden-hour light and city views. ⏱️How to Get There: Take Line 1/Line 6 to Xiaoshizi or Jiaochangkou Station, or use the Yangtze River Cableway for a scenic entrance. ✨Travel Tips: ✅Explore on foot or by cable car — the elevation changes will surprise you. ✅Bring a good camera — the contrast of high-rises, old balconies, and bustling streets is a photographer’s dream! ✅Don’t miss the rooftops or pedestrian overpasses — best places to capture Chongqing’s 3D city magic!
