My affection for Chongqing probably started with the movie "Hot Pot Hero". I don't remember the story, but I still remember the steaming hot pot. I am a veteran foodie. It is said that the temperature in Chongqing is above 40 in summer, and electric fans have become hair dryers. Braised under the bed, teppanyaki on the mat, steamed after getting up, barbecued outside, cooked while swimming, fried on the street, and at home.
Precautions:
Because of time constraints, this atypical trip has limited places to explore, and the focus is on eating. During my three days in Chongqing, I lamented countless times that my stomach was too small. After all, there are so many delicious foods that I can't finish, but those delicious foods are still waiting, with unique fireworks. Chew them carefully and you will feel the local culture.
Eat, drink and enjoy life.
Eat: Hot pot is a must-punch, the famous Dongzi hot pot, but you have been looking for me for a long time, and then there are Chongqing Xiao noodles. Although it is available all over the country, you must try the authentic taste when you come ~ As for other Chongqing dishes, such as spicy chicken, boiled fish, Maoxuewang, chicken pot (my favorite), hot and sour powder and so on. Friends who can't eat spicy food should be careful. I come from Hunan. )
Accommodation: BBB will definitely recommend it! We booked BB: Tangshan cuisine in advance, which is more affordable than others. An hour's drive from downtown. Decorated like a small folk museum, very retro. The rooms are all retro style, old furniture and classical beds. The second floor is full of ancient beds, the first floor is a thatched house, and then the yard can bask in the sun. Very nice ~
OK: Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport is a little far from downtown Chongqing. It takes about an hour to take the airport express. Chongqing's urban light rail is a major feature. Due to the unique geographical environment, the rail transit passing through the building, the Yangtze River cableway across the river and the endless escalator are all scenic spots full of surprises in the eyes of outsiders. Line 2 and Line 3 are light rail lines. Among them, Line 2 features Bashu culture, while Line 3 is aimed at ordinary people. If you want to see the beautiful mountain scenery, it is a good choice to take Line 2 and walk along the river. There are many stations on Line 3, which is suitable for taking photos of people's livelihood or light rail operation.
Eat from beginning to end
It is said that there are more than 200 kinds of snacks in Chongqing. After rest and rectification, we started a foraging trip.
Jie Fangbei Haochi Street-Sanxia Square-Nanbin Road Food Street-Hongyadong-Nanshan Hotpot Street
Jiefang North Haochi Street
On this 205-meter-long street, there are various restaurants that offer special and unique food to attract guests. Hot and sour noodles, cold noodles, Dandan Noodles in Chongqing, Xiao Tangyuan in Shancheng, Wang Duck, etc. It can be said to be a complete collection of snacks in Chongqing.
Transportation: Take the light rail at Linjiangmen Station.
Three Gorges square
The Three Gorges Square is located in Shapingba District, Chongqing. There are all kinds of delicious food on the pedestrian street, from ginger restaurant to alley. So it is a gourmet paradise for gourmets.
Lunan food street
Located in Nanbin Road Food Street, near the river, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while enjoying the night view.
Drinking beer and singing, watching the hillside of the main city, a scene of fireworks ~
Hongyadong
Hongyadong, an online celebrity, is a must-see place when you come to Chongqing. The online celebrity food at the entrance is this coconut egg, which calls itself Tik Tok Coconut Egg. It's too crowded. I wanted to have a taste, but I finally gave up. There are too many people to squeeze in.
Steaming ice cream balls, online celebrity ice powder, Chongqing edamame bean jelly, Zhaofeng online celebrity gourmet restaurant (also available in Changsha), octopus Dada, Chongqing's Chen Mahua are definitely the specialties here, as well as Chongqing beef jerky (you can bring some to your relatives and friends).
Chongqing's pepper, I feel that this should be a serious "network celebrity" in Chongqing, which is booming and has the characteristics of heavy truck.
Nanshan Hot Pot Street is about 3 kilometers long, and there are more than 20 hot pot restaurants, large and small. There are famous loquat gardens and fresh Longjing, but Nanshan has a rich atmosphere and terrain.

Chongqing Happy Valley Maya Beach Water Park

Compared with the old Chongqing area and the valley mining town, the project is not so thrilling, but the torrent is an indispensable Maya beach park in summer, covering an area of 260 mu and nearly 20 sets of water experience projects, allowing you to go to the sea at will. Really super enjoyable!

Chongqing Huatian Valley
Huaxi Valley is characterized by a 5D glass bridge floating in the air.
In Huatian Valley, the thrilling Jiuqu aerial drifting is 999 meters long, with a vertical drop of 99 meters and nine super thrilling bends. It galloped down the mountains and splashed water between them, as if it were integrated with nature. Just the wind, the sound of water and the heartbeat.

The whole water area is covered, cool, cold and exciting. Even if you slide into the water, you can still reach a new height.

Perfect integration with high-altitude transparency, glass bridge will stimulate to the extreme. Visitors can overlook the deep canyon 360 degrees, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the flower sea and overlook the 10,000-mu orange sea.
End of movement
Air-conditioned rooms are comfortable in summer, but they also have defects. I experienced a hot summer in Chongqing, sweating like rain, the sun like fire, enthusiasm like fire, fireworks, a precious memory.
