Chongqing Essentials

Chongqing, known as the Mountain City, is defined by its dramatic vertical landscape at the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers. This collection spans the city’s architectural evolution, from the traditional stilt houses of Hongya Cave and the historic Eighteen Stairs to the futuristic skybridge of Raffles City. It includes significant cultural landmarks like the UNESCO-listed Dazu Rock Carvings, the Three Kingdoms history at Baidi Castle, and the Cold War-era 816 Nuclear Military Plant, showcasing the region's diverse heritage.
