Crown Escalator

Crown Escalator, a large escalator at an intersection in Chongqing, connects two intersections and Chongqing Station (also known as Caiyuanba Railway Station), is one of Chongqing's special traffic. One-way fare is 2 yuan. The crown escalator is the longest (second longest in Asia) sloping escalator in the country, known as the first ladder for climbing mountains in China. It was officially operated on February 18, 1996. The crown escalator is 112 meters long,52.5 meters high,1.3 meters wide, and 30 degrees of slope. The running speed is0.75 meters per second, the whole running time is 2 minutes and 30 seconds, and the maximum capacity of each unit is 13,500 people per hour. I first came to Chongqing in 1985. After getting off the train at Chongqing Railway Station, I took the cable car to climb to the two intersections. The fare was 2 cents, and it was not cheap in that era. The cable car at that time was the mural in the crown escalator hall, a bit like the tram of that era, two cars, pulled by the cable link, one up, play a role of mutual weight.

Chongqing is a city built by cutting mountains, so the city is three-dimensional and the height of the road is very different. This "Crown Escalator" was made to make it easier to move. It is an escalator that connects Lianglukou Station and Chongqing Station. It is said to be the longest escalator in China, and the length is 112m! When I got on it, the down escalator with the extension 々 was really long and the speed was quite fast, so it was like an attraction! I was a little hyacinth 😅💦

Crown Escalator in Chongqing is a some kind of unusual experience there. What can I say else, it is just an escalator but pretty long one.

The crown escalator at the two intersections of the two intersections of the Yuzhong Peninsula in Chongqing is an ultra-long hand-held elevator connecting the upper and lower urban areas. In the Yuzhong Peninsula in Chongqing, because it is built on the mountain, the terrain gap is very large, so even the escalator has become a form of transportation, charged per time. Using this large escalator can quickly connect the mountain and the mountain below, faster than driving around.
