Hello everyone! Welcome back to my channel.Now we are in Chongqing, China. Chongqing is a major city in southwest China, known for its rich history, cultural diversity, and dynamic urban development. With a population of over 30 million, Chongqing is one of China's four directly administered municipalities, alongside Beijing, Shanghai, and Tianjin. Great! I'm now the 81,132nd lucky guy. Now we are walking in Chongqing Miao Street(Miracle Street). Miao Street in Chongqing is a unique and charming street located between Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street and
Luohan Temple in Yuzhong District. Next to it is the Luohan Temple, a place with a long history and strong religious and cultural atmosphere, which endows Miao Street with a unique cultural background. Chongqing has very modern and beautiful urban construction. Let's enjoy today's city walk. Now we have arrived at Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street. Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street is the heart of Chongqing’s commercial district. The area is named after the Liberation Monument (解放碑), a historic landmark commemorating China’s victory in World War II.
Lined with shopping malls, luxury brands, and restaurants, the pedestrian street is a bustling hub for both locals and tourists. Now we are facing the famous Liberation Monument in Chongqing. As one of the most famous attractions in Chongqing, it is always crowded with tourists. Now we've arrived at Kuixing Tower. Here, you can fully experience the unique charm of Chongqing, the "mountain city" — you'll never really know which floor you're on. Now let's guess which floor we are on now? Follow me and I'll show you next. Wow, look at this, you thought we
were on the first floor? No, you're wrong, actually, the building we're facing is the 22nd floor. This is crazy, I can't imagine how they built this city. Back in this direction, looking at the building opposite, shouldn’t we be on the first floor? The tall buildings across the river are stunning. Next we are going to take a walk along the river. Now we have arrived at Daijia Lane. It's hard to imagine that we are on the cliff now, incredible, isn't it? Chongqing is really a magical city. In the distance is the famous Jialing River and Qiansimen
Bridge. Just ahead is one of the most famous landmarks in Chongqing — Hongya Cave. I'll come back to explore it again at night. Now we have arrived at Chaotianmen Square in Chongqing. Chaotianmen Square is a iconic landmark in Chongqing, situated at the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers in Yuzhong District. Its name, meaning "Gate Facing Heaven," reflects its historical role as a vital gateway for water transport and trade. As the meeting point of the two great rivers, the square offers a dramatic view: the muddy yellow waters of the Yangtze
and the clearer greenish waters of the Jialing River flowing side by side before merging. This natural spectacle has made it a must-visit spot for tourists.
