Early in the morning, when the first rays of sunshine pour over the staggered buildings of Shancheng, we will depart from the historical Shancheng Lane, where the ancient houses and stores on both sides of the stone-paneled road intertwine to create a vivid picture of the old street. Afterwards, lightly turn to White Elephant Street, which was once a prosperous place where merchants gathered, and every piece of green stone board seems to be whispering about the past splendor. The Sutra Pavilion stands quietly, revealing a bit of tranquility in the ancient trees, adding a touch of Zen to the journey.
Continuing on to the White Elephant House, this residential complex surrounded by the spectacle of the light rail running through the building is a perfect example of the fusion of modernity and antiquity, which makes people stop and look up, marveling at the unique magical charm of the mountain city. Immediately after that, step into the Huguang Guild Hall, the antique architectural complex tells the epic of immigration from Huguang to Sichuan, and every brick and tile carries a heavy historical memory.
Stroll to the Dongshuimen City Wall Ruins, the mottled walls witnessed the vicissitudes of Chongqing City, as if you can travel through time and feel the resilience and unyielding. Subsequently, the morning bells and evening drums of Luohan Temple rang out, adding a bit of religious solemnity and peace to this cultural journey.
Finally, at nightfall, arrived at Hongyadong, the lights, hanging footstools built on the mountain, layers upon layers, like a bright night pearl set in the Jialing River, this is not only the sea of food, but also a perfect place to experience the culture of Bayu.

Breakfast
In the early morning light, we will embark on the Yangtze River Ropeway, a heart-pounding journey through the air. As the cable car slowly slides out of the station, the Yangtze River shimmers beneath your feet, and the scenery on both sides of the river unfolds like a scroll.
After getting off the ropeway, you will step into the Eighteen Stairs, which is full of historical flavor. The stone paths here have gone through vicissitudes of life, and each piece of green stone plate records the stories of the past. The old houses on both sides of the street are mottled, but you can still see the prosperity of the past. The small stores along the street are bustling with all kinds of handicrafts and local snacks, and the air is filled with tantalizing aromas.
We will then take you to Jiefangbei, the commercial center of Chongqing and a symbol of the city. The towering monument gleams in the sunlight, and the surrounding skyscrapers showcase the city's modernity and prosperity. You can stroll through the busy streets, admire the various stores and billboards, and feel the fashion and vitality of the city.
In the late afternoon, we will take you to the Eling No.2 Factory, a creative park full of artistic and literary flavor. The park retains the industrial look of the old printing factory while incorporating modern design elements to create a unique artistic atmosphere. You can walk through the park, visit various art exhibitions and creative stores, and feel the perfect fusion of art and life.
Then, we will bring you to the scene of the spectacle of the Liziba Light Railway passing through the buildings. This incredible sight is breathtaking as the LRT train slowly passes through the residential buildings. You can stand on the observation deck to get a close-up view of this mind-blowing scene and feel the harmonious coexistence between modern transportation and ancient architecture.
Finally, as night falls, we will take you to the old town of Ciqikou. The town is full of lights and people, and is filled with a rich historical and cultural atmosphere. You can stroll along the green stone road and admire the ancient buildings and the wide range of handicraft stores. Taste the authentic Chongqing snacks in front of the food stalls in the ancient town and feel the unique spicy and fresh aroma. In the teahouse to listen to a Sichuan opera face-changing performance is to appreciate the unique charm of the Bayu culture.
As the sun sets, we will arrange a special car to take you to the airport or station, the end of this unforgettable two-day tour of Chongqing. We hope this trip will become a wonderful memory in your heart, and look forward to meeting you again in the mountain city.
