Description

Explore the 8D mountain city of Chongqing and the historical ancient city. Visit 6 locations including Jiefangbei, Kuixing Tower, Liziba Station, etc. Feel the collision of history and modernity.
Your day starts at Jiefangbei, where you will meet up.
Then walk to Kuixing Tower, built during the Qing Dynasty. It features a breathtaking 22-story suspended skybridge that spans two high-rise buildings, offering stunning views of the Jialing River and the city's streetscape.
Next, head to Liziba Light Rail Station, where trains shuttle between residential buildings every day. This unique station is not only a commuter hub, but also a symbol of the city's creativity.
Continue to Guandi Temple, hidden within Fotuguan Park. This important Taoist shrine, built during the Ming Dynasty, is dedicated to Guan Yu and Yue Fei. Explore the temple's solemn layout, exquisite colored sculptures, and ancient trees.
Then, visit Huguang Guild Hall, the largest extant ancient guild hall complex. Admire the bright yellow exterior walls built against the mountain, and the intricate carvings in Yuwang Palace Theater. Learn about the history of "filling Sichuan" at the Immigration Museum.
Stroll along the century-old street on the south bank of the river, Longmenhao in Xiahaoli. Bluestone steps connect the Bayu stilt houses with old European houses, and art spaces and cafes are located here. The Longmen Haoyue Stone Carving tells the ancient legend of the Twelve Scenic Spots of Bayu. Under the Dongshuimen Bridge, the old and new times are poetically intertwined.

The end of the journey is Raffles Place, a masterpiece designed by the same designer as the Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore. The 250-meter-high Crystal Corridor is like "setting sail", integrating shopping, sightseeing and hotels. The Discovery Pod Observation Deck offers a 270-degree view of the two rivers and four banks, and the night light show is dazzling, like an interstellar terminal. This once controversial building has now become a new landmark on the Yuzhong Peninsula, symbolizing Chongqing's sense of the future.

We will disband at Raffles.
After the trip, you can freely choose to take a cruise or the Raffles High-Altitude Discovery Pod and other activities.
