Chongqing
Known as a "mountain city," Chongqing in Southwest China attracts people with its beautiful scenery, such as uneven roads and architecture built on hills and along the Yangtze River. Among the famous destinations are two UNESCO World Heritage sites: the Wulong Karst Scenic Area and the Dazu Rock Carvings. The former is famous for its giant sinkholes, natural bridges and caves, while the latter features an exceptional series of rock carvings dating from the 9th to the 13th century.
In the city proper, the ancient town of Ciqikou, dating back some 1,000 years to the Song Dynasty, the temple fair and night tours allow tourists to enjoy the culture in the "mountain city."
