Why visit Chongqing?
Chongqing is a major river city where steep hills meet the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers, creating a dramatic skyline wrapped in mist. You will discover lively districts, bold flavours, and night views that transform the city into a sea of lights.
What to expect
The city stretches over hills and riverbanks, linked by bridges, funiculars, and elevated expressways. Neighbourhoods shift from historic quarters and narrow stairways to modern shopping streets and towers, giving you a sense of both old riverside life and fast-paced urban energy in a single day.
Plan your trip
Chongqing is an excellent base for exploring the upper reaches of the Yangtze, nearby hot spring resorts, and scenic mountain areas. With a growing metro network and busy river ports, it serves as a gateway into the wider south-west region, whether you are here for business or exploration.
