The city of Chongqing would offer many interesting attractions for the discerning visitor, including cultural and historical highlights, delicious foods and features of nature.
Authentic Hotpot
As you might expect, savouring the delicious local cuisine would be one of the not-to-be-missed things to do in the city. A great place at which to try out the local hotpot would be Qiqi Hot Pot where you could sample spicy beef, eel and other seafood. A Chongqing accommodation to consider from which you could easily visit Qiqi Hot Pot or similar dining venues would be Somerset Yangtze River Chongqing.
Baiheliang Underwater Museum
You will see that the Baiheliang Underwater Museum is a marvel of engineering that would amaze the visitor. Here, you will have the opportunity to descend beneath the waters in an elevator and admire the famed rocky ridge featuring ancient poetic inscriptions, calligraphy, fish carvings and so on that would be truly entrancing.
Fengdu Ghost City
The well-known Fengdu Ghost City would, in fact, be a series of temples, shrines and monasteries – situated on a picturesque mountain – that all happen to be devoted to the afterlife. If you ascend this mountain, you would encounter mysterious places of worship featuring impressive gates, upturned eaves and the aroma of incense.
Three Natural Bridges
Lovers of nature and the wilderness should undoubtedly take the opportunity to visit the Wulong Karst Geological Park which you will find in the environs of Chongqing. A highlight here would be the Three Natural Bridges which happen to be stunning formations of limestone, surrounded by waterfalls and given the names of legendary dragons.
