The optional viewing deck CNY40 and lunch CNY20 (cheap) should be displayed upfront when booking. Follow the instructions closely on wechat as you are on your own and can be confusing with different groups on the same bus and crowded at the location. Highly recommended.

During this trip to Chongqing, I took the river-crossing cable car twice. The first time was on the riverbank leading to Chaotianmen Wharf Square. Many cruise ships were docked there, offering sightseeing tours. We ran into a group of foreigners taking photos and greeting us. I instantly felt incredibly proud. The second time I took the cable car was at Baixiangju, the place that's both the first floor and the top floor.

I arrived before 9 a.m., and the panda enclosure was right inside the entrance. It was already crowded, and if you couldn't squeeze in, you could watch the live stream on your screen; the view was quite clear. At this time, the pandas were eating and still had some time to move around. After 10 p.m., they finished eating and went to sleep. I also saw some of the other animals.

The night view is truly breathtaking, with dazzling lights that make for great photos. The stilted houses built along the mountainside are very distinctive, with their layered structure adding to the charm. Although there were many tourists, the atmosphere was lively, making it worthwhile to come see the city at dusk when the lights come on. Take a stroll and experience the charm of this mountain town.

Compared to when I came earlier this year, the ship's interior and decor have been upgraded. The entire journey isn't long, but you can see several famous landmarks in Chongqing. The price is so-so for a tourist package, but expensive for a ferry. But, since we're already here, haha...

The story of entrusting an orphan to Baidi City has been passed down through the ages, and the Yanhuidui in Kuimen, Qutang Gorge of the Yangtze River is also well-known. With its natural scenery, cultural history, spectacular views, and wonderful exhibitions, it is one of the most worthwhile attractions in Fengjie. There is a direct bus from the high-speed rail station to the scenic area gate. After crossing the river, some scenic spots are connected to the top of the Three Gorges, which can be visited together.

A Trip to Fairy Mountain: A Healing Journey into a Real-Life "Oriental Switzerland" Having long heard of Fairy Mountain's reputation as the "Number One Pasture in Southern China," this trip truly lived up to its name! Escaping the city's sweltering heat in the height of summer, the cool 22°C here felt like natural air conditioning. The lush green forests and boundless grasslands intertwined, making every snapshot a wallpaper-worthy moment. Strolling along the wooden boardwalk, herds of cattle and sheep grazed leisurely on the meadows, the wind rippling through the meadows like waves of green, the only sounds being birdsong and the wind—even the air felt sweet and refreshing. The highlight was the horseback riding experience. Galloping across the open grasslands, feeling the wind through my hair, instantly forgot all my worries. I also checked out the popular miniature train, winding through the forest like stepping into a fairytale. In the evening, I checked into a guesthouse by the grasslands, where a sky full of stars awaited me. Dinner featured a whole roasted lamb, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, paired with local plum juice—a truly hearty and rustic experience. The scenic area boasts comprehensive facilities and convenient transportation, offering unique enjoyment for families, couples, and friends alike. This hidden grassland paradise in Wulong, Chongqing, combines the vastness of northern grasslands with the delicate beauty of southern landscapes, making it absolutely worth visiting repeatedly. Next time, I'll definitely bring a tent to watch the sunrise and sunset on the grassland!

Originally built during the reign of Emperor Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, the Huguang Guild Hall is renowned for its exquisite stone carvings, wood carvings, and brick carvings. Despite numerous renovations, many beautiful wood carvings, stone carvings, and brick carvings still remain, making it a worthwhile destination for those with an artistic temperament to visit.

The only way to visit the Baodingshan Stone Carvings is from the visitor center. Arrive at 8:30, take the first bus at 8:50, go to the mountain gate, then take the shuttle bus to the museum, and walk to the stone carvings after that. Make sure to visit before the tour groups finish before 11:00, as there are very few people and you can take photos freely.

We came during the off-season and arrived quite early, so we saw a beautiful sunset. The night view was also fantastic. ☽ We had a lot of luggage, so the staff helped us with our bags. The staff were very friendly. (👍ᐛ)
