    Chongqing Happy Valley is quite fun, and even more kid-friendly than Shanghai's Happy Valley. The kids had a blast, and my girlfriends had a blast too. There's even a makeup area! The NPCs there are so pretty and cool! Highly recommended! Chongqing Happy Valley! Whether it's Halloween 🎃👻 or just any other time! Let's go!

    Ciqikou Ancient Town, originally named Baiyanchang, was founded during the Xianping reign of Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty (998-1003). It was renamed Longyin Town because Ming Dynasty Emperor Jianwen, Zhu Yunwen, once retreated in Baolun Temple within the town. The town earned the name "Ciqikou" due to its flourishing porcelain industry during the Qing Dynasty. It was once a major waterway port on the Jialing River and one of the birthplaces of modern industry in Chongqing. Through conservation and development in the late 20th century, it has become the largest and best-preserved ancient town in Chongqing's main urban area, showcasing the Ba-Yu culture. Baolun Temple: Built during the Song Dynasty, it is said to have been the retreat of Emperor Jianwen, with preserved Ming Dynasty architectural features. Hanlin Academy: The remains of a Qing Dynasty academy, showcasing the culture of the imperial examination system. Ciqikou Backstreet: A commercial district blending tradition and modernity, housing boutique hotels, cultural and creative properties, and other 24-hour businesses. Chongqing Memory Museum: An immersive exhibition presents the ancient town's millennia-long history.

    Absolutely fantastic, a must-do activity! The panoramic view of the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers in Chongqing at night is breathtaking! The only downside was that the three of us didn't know how to get to the pier to board the boat. Because of time constraints, we were forced to pay an extra 60 yuan for directions! Actually, we later learned that the pier was right outside the first floor of Hongyadong! Don't be silly and not know this!

    💖This time in Chongqing, I chose the Chongqing Millennium Smart View Hotel (Jiefangbei-Hongyadong Branch), and the experience was fantastic! I had to share it with you all! 📍 Hotel Location: The hotel is located in the heart of Jiefangbei, within the New Chongqing Apartment complex. Xiaoshizi subway station is downstairs, and it's also very close to the Yangtze River Cableway, just a few minutes' walk from Jiefangbei. Getting to Hongyadong is even more convenient, about an 8-minute walk. 🏨 Hotel Facilities: The hotel rooms are spacious, featuring a sophisticated minimalist design. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer unbeatable views, and every room is a river-view room. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the confluence of the two rivers from your bed, and at night you can see the dazzling night view of Hongyadong. For an even wider view, you can go to the hotel's 6th or 7th floor observation deck to overlook most of Chongqing. The rooms are equipped with smart home devices, and some room types have projectors, perfect for relaxation. 🌃 Hongyadong: Hongyadong is a short walk from the hotel. At night, Hongyadong is brightly lit, resembling a fairytale world. Here are a few recommended photo spots: First, the Qianximen Bridge offers panoramic views of Hongyadong and its reflection in the Jialing River; second, across the street from the first floor of Hongyadong, use your phone's live photo mode with Hongyadong as a backdrop for a cyberpunk-style shot; third, the city night view observation deck on the 11th floor of Hongyadong provides a breathtaking view of the alleyways inside Hongyadong and the nightscape of the Qianximen Bridge. 🍜 Dining Experience: The hotel is surrounded by numerous restaurants. There are many snack shops downstairs where you can enjoy authentic Chongqing noodles, hot and sour noodles, and more. A few minutes' walk to Jiefangbei, there's also the Bayi Food Street, offering various Chongqing specialties like roasted pig brains and Chongqing-style glutinous rice balls—all very authentic. In short, my stay at the Chongqing Millennium Smart View Hotel Jiefangbei Hongyadong Branch allowed me to experience the unique charm of Chongqing. The hotel's excellent location and comfortable facilities added a lot of enjoyment to my trip, and I will definitely choose this hotel again next time I visit Chongqing!
