About Chongqing

Chongqing is a vast hilly city where the Yangtze meets the Jialing in south-west China, known for fiery hot pot, steep streets and a skyline lit at night.

Chongqing spreads across steep hills at the meeting of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers, so its roads climb and drop, cable cars cross the water, and a monorail line passes through a residential tower. It is one of China's four municipalities under direct central control, and it served as the Nationalist government's capital during the Second World War. Hongyadong, a cliffside complex built in the style of the region's stilted houses, is lit up at night.
