Tickets:
Dazu Stone Carvings: Dazu mainly visits the stone carvings of Baoding Mountain and Beishan Mountain. Package 121 yuan, half price for people over 61. Buy tickets for Baoding Mountain 81 yuan and Beishan Mountain 51 yuan separately.
Geleshan Martyrs Cemetery: Tickets to visit 41 yuan will be free after 3/26th, but daily invoices are limited to control the number of people.
Ciqikou Ancient Town: Take a taxi from Geleshan Martyrs Cemetery to 5 yuan, and it's only 1km walk.
Transportation:
The bus terminal of Chongqing Airport is in Shangqing Temple in the urban area, and it costs RMB 15 per person. Take a taxi from Shangqing Temple to Jie Fangbei and other places about 11. In fact, taking a taxi from the airport to downtown is about 41 yuan, plus a high-speed fee of RMB 11. It's convenient to visit the bus in the city, and it's also a good choice to take a taxi to save time, usually around 6-31 yuan.
Dazu Stone Carving: Chongqing Chen Jiaping Long-distance Bus Terminal starts at 6: 31 in the morning, and a train leaves for Dazu at 31-41, and a round-trip ticket to 96 yuan. Jie Fangbei-Chen Jiaping takes a taxi about 22-25 yuan. After arriving at Dazu coach station, take a taxi to 31 yuan, Baodingshan, and go to Beishan for 5-11 yuan. Although the long-distance station connects the scenic spots with public traffic, the stop/time is very chaotic, so I didn't look for it.
Geleshan Martyrs Cemetery: Geleshan Martyrs Cemetery is located in Shapingba, which is just like the urban area under construction, with a little distance. The 215/265 bus gets off at the Martyrs' Tomb. The cemetery gate is about 3km from Zhazidong, and Baigongguan/Songlinpo is basically in the middle, about 1km away from the gate. There are bus connections between scenic spots, and tickets are free. But it is inconvenient for friends who want to visit carefully. Therefore, it is suggested to take a bus (like No.211 bus) at the gate of the scenic spot and go directly to Zhazidong. After the visit, find the scenic spot bus, go to Baigongguan and walk to the gate by yourself.
Accommodation:
It is recommended to choose prosperous areas for accommodation, such as Hongyadong and Jie Fangbei, where transportation and dining are very convenient. It is not recommended to be near Chaotianmen, which is mainly a land/river road transportation hub, which is full of chaos.
Finally, introduce the scenic spots in Chongqing:
Chaotianmen, Jie Fangbei and Hongyadong are recommended to go when night falls, which are night scenes. If you have time, go again during the day. If there is fog, it can best reflect the true colors of Chongqing.
Hongyadong faces Jialing River, and it is mainly a tourist place integrating catering, entertainment and shopping. Chongqing restaurant there: Little Swan is very famous, with authentic taste and low price. You can try it if you have the chance.
There are two cable cars crossing the river: Jialing River Cable Car and Yangtze River Cable Car. The Yangtze River Cable Car is the best choice, mainly because it is more imposing than Jiangling Jiang Changjiang. The cable car in Crazy Stone should be the Yangtze River cable car.
The Great Hall of the People is close to the Shangqing Temple, which used to be the center of Chongqing people's gathering. Now, except for meetings, people may go to Jie Fangbei for fun.
The building of the Auditorium is magnificent, resembling the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. In the 1951s and 1961s, it was remarkable to build such a building.
