As is well known, Chongqing is a magical 8D city. During the day, people climb slopes and take photos at various popular spots, experiencing its three-dimensional space. However, if you don't enjoy the night view, the legendary 8D magical experience will be at least halved.
"If you haven't seen the night view, you haven't been to Chongqing," this is not an unfounded slogan, but a sincere exclamation from many people captivated by Chongqing's night scene.
The best choice to enjoy the night view of the two rivers is undoubtedly taking the Chongqing Liangjiang Cruise. As night falls, the neon lights along the banks of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers light up one by one, and the cruise ship sails between the two rivers.
The stilted buildings of Hongya Cave are stacked layer upon layer, dazzling with colors; the red Qiansimen Bridge's lights dim and brighten with the rhythm of breathing; every few minutes, you can see the light rail shuttling through the belly of the bridge; the night view of the Grand Theatre is orderly and its contours are clear; the Raffles City building stands tall like a raised sail at Chaotianmen Dock; the Yangtze River cableway carries tourists back and forth overhead; the twin skyscrapers shine golden during the day and sparkle with seven colors at night; on the river, the water police driving speedboats add a dynamic touch to the night scene...
The riverside of the mountain city has a gentle evening breeze; and the night scenery is bright and vivid. How can such a beautiful view not be worth a visit?

Eye catching city
Chongqing at night is a mesmerizing blend of modernity and tradition. The city's skyline sparkles with vibrant neon lights, reflecting off the Yangtze River's surface. Tall skyscrapers stand as glittering symbols of its rapid urbanization, while ancient temples and bridges add a touch of history. The bustling streets come alive with a symphony of sounds – street vendors hawking local delicacies, the hum of traffic, and the occasional echo of traditional music. Cruise boats adorned with colorful lights navigate the river, offering stunning views of the cityscape. Chongqing's night markets are a sensory delight, offering a plethora of flavors and aromas.

You look at the scenery on the bridge, the people watching the scenery look at you upstairs, and read the "bridge history" of Chongqing, which is to read the history of Chongqing's development. The bridge is related to the development of the city. Even many people in Chongqing may not know that the total number of bridges in Chongqing (including bridges, bridges, overpasses, etc.) has exceeded 14,000. Chongqing is known as the bridge capital!
