During the journey, I was amazed by the magical rivers and lakes of Chongqing, missed the lazy and leisurely Chengdu, felt the charm of the rivers and lakes in the "3D Magic City", experienced the leisure and comfort in the "Land of Abundance", and was impressed by the profound Bashu culture foundation.

DAY1: Rizhao-Chongqing, stay at Chongqing Lily Church Hotel, and travel around Hongyadong

Since the poster landed at 6pm, the first night’s itinerary mainly focuses on food and accommodation The problem is that the main purpose of travel is to go shopping and experience the night view of the magical city. I would like to say that the host was very satisfied with the accommodation and was deeply affected by the atmosphere of the church.

Note: Since the author lives in a city with flat roads, the first feeling when he came to the Magic City was that he was at a loss. The navigation was lost, and the author was confused. Therefore, it is recommended that friends who are planning to travel by car give up their thoughts as soon as possible. .
