A Must-See for the Lazy! Start Your Chongqing Adventure at Noon Without Waking Up Early

Depart at 12pm Every Day!!! Perfect for those who can't wake up early. Sharing my previous travel plan, control your time and follow the plan every day, your itinerary will be packed. I stayed at Xingdi Ark Building near Jiefangbei, just downstairs is Linjiangmen Station of Line 2, convenient transportation (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ In fact, there are many other attractions, you can go for a walk any night when you have time. For example, Hongyadong, Jiefangbei, Raffles City, and Cloud End Eye to see the night view of Chongqing, etc. Day 1. 1️⃣ Liziba (12:30–13:00) (Take Line 2 from Linjiangmen Station in the direction of Yudong, get off at Liziba Station, go downstairs to the viewing platform) The building and station are integrated, the light rail is like a giant dragon passing through the building, Liziba interprets the 8D magic legend of the mountain city. 2️⃣ Eling No. 2 Factory (13:30–14:30) (It is recommended to take a taxi at the viewing platform, otherwise you have to walk a long mountain road, and if you go the wrong way, you have to walk a long flight of stairs (that's me!!! Roar!!! Tired!!! If you are not afraid of being tired, pretend I didn't say anything 🫨) The old factory building hides the stories of the years, the vines climb the walls, and the bluestone road tells the gentleness of old Chongqing, and the literary shops unlock the unique romance of the mountain city. 3️⃣ Crown Escalator (15:00–15:30) can be omitted, it is a very long escalator, if you go, be sure to go from the bottom up! (Take a taxi and tell the driver to go from the bottom up) 4️⃣ Guanyinqiao Pedestrian Street (16:00–19:00 including meal time) (Next to the Crown Escalator is Lianglukou Station of Line 3 in the direction of Jiangbei Airport, get off at Guanyinqiao Station. If you skip the Crown Escalator, walk to Lianglukou Station of Line 3) Guanyinqiao used to be a dragon ladder, where historical heritage meets the modern and prosperous scene. 5️⃣ Beicang Cultural and Creative Block, Jiujie (19:30–as you like) (Just walk there, just take a walk after dinner) Hidden on the bank of Guanyinqiao, the old warehouse has a new charm, literary shops and books, go to a slow time appointment. Stroll through Jiujie, where trendy business formats are intertwined, the atmosphere of fireworks permeates, and you can indulge in the charm of Chongqing's night. Day 2. 1️⃣ Luo Zhongli Art Museum (13:30–16:00) Reservation required, Sichuan Fine Arts Institute Art Museum (Take Line 2 from Linjiangmen Station in the direction of Jiaochangkou, transfer to Line 1 at Jiaochangkou Station in the direction of Bishan, get off at University Town Station, take a taxi or walk after getting off) Stroll through the Chongqing Luo Zhongli Art Museum, admire the colorful exterior walls, and indulge in the dreamlike world outlined by art. 2️⃣ Ciqikou Ancient Town (16:30–as you like) (Return to University Town Station of Line 1 in the direction of Chaotianmen, get off at Ciqikou Station) Stroll through the old streets of Ciqikou, sip tea and listen to Sichuan Opera in the teahouse, and slowly enjoy the leisurely and comfortable Bayu time. Day 3. 1️⃣ Russian Tetris Photo (12:30–13:30) (Take a taxi to Nanbin Yacht Plaza, there is a downhill entrance) 2️⃣ Longmenhao Old Street (14:00–15:30) (Take a taxi, because there is no better direct transportation) The ancient charm of the Ming and Qing Dynasties still exists, and the Bayu customs are full of charm. Admire the ancient buildings of the Qing Dynasty and watch the fish leap over the Dragon Gate. 3️⃣ Xiahaoli Old Street (16:00–17:30) (Just walk there) Cross Xiahaoli, explore the origin of Su Shi's naming, and trace the footprints of celebrities and the century-old style of the old street. 4️⃣ Danzishi Old Street (18:00–as you like) (Outer Ring Road in the direction of Renji, get off at Danzishi Station) The integration of Chinese and Western architecture, ancient buildings such as the Wang Family Courtyard, show unique charm.
