  • This is one of the most beautiful places I’ve visited during my short stay in China... the atmosphere was incredibly suggestive and l loved the liveliness of the place🥰 if you’re looking for a souvenir, there are many shops with very affordable prices and good quality profucts (for example, typical local foods like tea and sichuan pepper). People there are also very nice, I highly recommend it!
  • Older part of town with narrow streets full of little shops and bars with live music . The food stalls are vending very similar type of food and there is not much diversity. But the atmosphere is worth coming here for and it is lovely especially at night. Small bars located on the second floor of those houses , they step nicely decorated with tranquil appeal . Come here and get a drink , enjoy the music
  • A lot of shops to see and endless food tasting. The layout is a T shape so it’s quite easy to walk around. 陈记麻花is famous but there are many with the same name, my tour guide said the one at the entrance (陈昌银陈记麻花) is the famous and best. I cannot really taste the difference though. Good place to buy local specialities and fill your tummy. There are quite a few shops offering make up and Chinese costumes for photo too.
  • 越夜越美丽 liveband cafes, shops, local delights, cafes, bars unique shops, snacks, light food all in a uniquely antique china town. Be prepared to spend at least 2 hrs here! Or more if you like to people watch in one of the many bars and cafes.
  • This old city in Chongqing was copied from the Japanese Spirited Away cartoon. The city has several levels, each of which houses souvenir shops, restaurants, shops and traditional food counters. On the last floor there is a panorama of the bridge over the Yangtze River, which the Chinese themselves confuse according to the photo with the bridge in San Francisco. Also in the territory of the old complex there is a waterfall in the depths of which a cave is hidden. Thousands of people visit this place daily. In general, the city is always filled with tourists.
