Huge Changes of Spots in Chongqing – the Mountain City in China


According to my experience, no matter where you visit along the Yangtze River Cruise , all should to go abroad at Chaotianmen in Chongqing. The present Chaotianmen is rebuilt to be a beautiful modern wharf, it is easy to enjoy its shape and outline from the opposite bank, and the beautiful Chaotianmen Square is the bow deck. But, it is a long distance before getting abroad. In 1993, I wandered before the wharf and staggered to run down a steep hill, and stepped on the soft wet sand to walked to the ship after 100 meters, and last got up to an old passenger ship. It was a bad memory as the mussy wharf and the shabby ship.

The people who had saw the brochure of Chongqing would not ignore the symbol - the Great Hall of People of Chongqing. Its exterior was imitated from the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, steel frame and wooden dome. Depend on the architectural level in 1950s, it really is a marvelous building. Nowadays, the People's Square is built in the front of the Great Hall of People, although not very large, it is very good in this golden area.

Previously, the best place to enjoy the famous night view of Chongqing is the Eling, to climb to a thin squarer, what worth to enjoy only were the lights on the Liangjiang Bridge and the lamps of families in Yuzhong District. If the mood of heaven is not good, the hiking is in vain. Now, there are various spots to enjoy the night views, especially the Yikeshu. Yikeshu is a name of place, has a viewing deck which covers an area of 400 square meters, and also set the viewing bars. It takes all the advantages of place, sits at the curve of hill and the corner of south bank. The river under foot likes the U, and the lamps in Yuzhong District seem like the oval face of beautiful girl, slightly raises, glorious! Bundles of searchlighting are lithe and graceful dancing in sky. Carefully seek, the high buildings are easily to distinguish, Pedestrian Street is enveloped by the lights hardly to see the groups of people, everything seems like in fairyland, wonderful!

What the most famous in Chongqing is the red revolution education trip. Three Gorges Museum, the Eight Route Army stationed in Chongqing office, Hongyan Village, Bai Mansion and Refuse Pit, which impressed to me is the prison in Bai Mansion. Without the introduction, I never would imagine to the bloody massacre. A old man told me the prisoners have chance to read books here, I was surprised, and he said the prisoners here were not the ordinary people, need not to fuss.
In the evening, get down to the bank of Jialingjiang River to taste the local delicious foods in any shops, it is enough to kill the tire in this day.
