Of course, it is also connected by Metro Line 3. The airport and the city, but if you arrive after 11pm, you won’t be able to catch up. Due to the complex terrain in Chongqing, the roads in the city are not spacious and traffic jams are common. Therefore, it is recommended to take the subway as the main route for travel.

Chongqing is very foggy. As long as it doesn’t rain, it’s a nice day. A bright sunny day is something you can only meet but cannot seek. It is not possible to ride a bicycle in the main urban area of ??Chongqing, and the roads are extremely congested. The subway and legs are the most reliable and convenient ways to travel. The terrain of the mountain city is three-dimensionally complex, so one cannot rely solely on plane navigation. A point on the map may represent several places at different altitudes. Jiefangbei is actually more like a CBD. In contrast, Jiaochangkou is much more down-to-earth, with various restaurants, restaurants, and shops nearby. It is especially recommended that tourists choose accommodation near Jiaochangkou Sun Moonlight. Chongqing's night scene is famous all over the world, and its nightlife is certainly not bad. The downtown area is brightly lit late at night, and many stores are open all night. Hot pot and noodles are commonplace meals for Chongqing people. Although there are many rankings and versions, if you choose one on the roadside, the taste will basically not disappoint. There is nothing spicy about eating in Chongqing, so foreign tourists must defecate in time, drink plenty of water, and eat some grapefruit, orange and other heat-reducing fruits. If you want to experience the Yangtze River Cableway in a single trip, it is recommended to get on from the Shangxinjie Cableway Station. There are a lot of people queuing up at the Xinhua Road Cableway Station. At many stations, you have to walk a lot to transfer to the subway and get in and out of the station. Be sure to check the traffic signs before lifting your legs and try to avoid taking unnecessary steps. If you take the subway to catch the high-speed train, you must get off at Longtousi Subway Station (the North Square is above), not the Chongqing North Station Subway Station (the South Square is above). The South and North Squares of Chongqing North Station are far apart.
