D2-Chongqing – Wulong
• Itinerary
❶ In the morning, travel to Wulong Karst to visit Fairy Mountain National Forest Park and the Three Natural Bridges, kicking off a new day of subterranean exploration.
❷ The "Switzerland of the East" – Fairy Mountain National Forest Park
With an average elevation of 1,900 meters, Fairy Mountain is renowned as the "Switzerland of the East" and the "Premier Pasture of the South" thanks to its captivating alpine grasslands; its stunning scenery—a blend of forest and meadow—is truly unique in Chongqing. Look up to see azure skies dotted with white clouds, and step into a massive "natural oxygen bar" formed by 330,000 mu of forest and 100,000 mu of grassland, where you can feel the cool breeze against your skin and breathe in the refreshing, invigorating scent of the open fields.
❸ World Natural Heritage Site – Three Natural Bridges
Visit the Wulong Karst Sinkholes (also known as the Three Natural Bridges), a site favored by renowned director Zhang Yimou and home to the world's largest cluster of natural bridges formed in a continuous chain. Eons of geological upheaval have sculpted a breathtaking landscape where "the mountain is a bridge, and the bridge is a mountain." Amidst towering cliffs, winding streams, lush forests, bamboo groves, and solitary rock formations, one truly feels the insignificance of humanity. Nestled along a quiet path beneath the bridges stands the Tianfu Official Posthouse—a solitary relay station that served as the sole location shoot for *Curse of the Golden Flower* and a filming site for *Transformers: Age of Extinction*; it stands as an enduring witness to the passage of time and the changing world.

❶ Exploring the World of the Miao People:
After breakfast, visit Chiyou Jiuli City, the largest complex of traditional Miao architecture in China. As a National 4A-rated tourist attraction integrating history, culture, and leisure, it is built against the mountains with a magnificent layout featuring two axes, two zones, and a "nine-star" configuration, comprising over 40 individual structures. Notably, three of its landmarks—the Nine Gates, Jiuli Palace, and the Jiuli Totem Pillar—hold Shanghai Great World Guinness records. Serving as a vital window and hub for showcasing and preserving Miao culture, the site offers a rich array of activities, including diverse folk performances, demonstrations of intangible cultural heritage, and tastings of authentic Miao cuisine, allowing visitors to truly immerse themselves in the culture.
❷ Take a cruise on the Wujiang River Gallery:
As the boat glides along, passengers find themselves immersed in a living painting amidst the scenery of the Wujiang River. Located in Longli County—situated along the Wujiang River in Anshun City, Guizhou Province, right at the border with Chongqing—the area is surrounded by mountains and boasts breathtaking vistas. It combines the delicate, wondrous beauty characteristic of karst landscapes with the majestic, picturesque grandeur of the river.

❶ Dream Suspended in Mid-Air—Yangtze River Cableway (at own expense: 30 RMB/person):
At some point, the Yangtze River Cableway became a must-visit attraction for tourists in the "Mountain City." As the cable car traverses the Yangtze, one’s gaze shifts between the shimmering river waters below and the nearby "forest of steel and concrete," offering endless scenic beauty and poetic charm. The line, "You stand on the cableway admiring the scenery, while those admiring the scenery watch you from afar," perfectly captures the allure of the Yangtze River Cableway. It is precisely this appeal that has made the location a favorite choice for film and television productions in Chongqing, including movies such as *Zhou Yu's Train* (2001), *Crazy Stone* (2006), *Curiosity Kills the Cat* (2006), and *The Door* (2007), as well as the variety show *Go Fighting!*
The Liziba Light Rail viewing platform is a popular "check-in" spot for internet-famous attractions; visitors can disembark to take photos and experience one of Chongqing's "Eighteen Oddities"—a light rail line that passes directly through a building—a feat netizens hail as a marvel of transportation engineering. The light rail weaves through the urban landscape, creating a sensation akin to a roller coaster ride. At the Liziba Station on Chongqing Rail Transit Line 2, the train passes through the structure, creating a spectacular daily scene where the light rail rushes through the building and across the ravine, seemingly flying through the air. The facility is organized with the station concourse on the 6th floor, equipment rooms on the 7th, and the boarding platforms on the 8th. It has become a nationwide viral attraction, drawing crowds every day to capture the moment the train passes through the building.
❷ Experience the vibrant, time-honored atmosphere of Chongqing—Ciqikou:
Located along the banks of the Jialing River in Chongqing's Shapingba District, Ciqikou Ancient Town dates back to the Song Dynasty. Its unique topography—characterized by "one river, two streams, three hills, and four streets"—created a natural harbor, making it a vital water-and-land transport hub along the Jialing River. In its heyday, it was a bustling center described by the saying: "A thousand people bow in greeting by day; ten thousand lanterns shine by night." The town embodies a rich tapestry of distinct cultural traditions, including Bayu, religious, Shaci, Hongyan, and folk cultures. With its iconic stone-paved street, Ciqikou serves as a microcosm and symbol of old Chongqing, earning it the nickname "Little Chongqing." Visitors can experience traditional activities such as oil pressing, silk reeling, sugar-figure sculpting, and Sichuan Opera performances, alongside a variety of traditional snacks and teahouses.
❸ China's Most Mysterious Oriental Magic: Watching a Face-Changing Performance:
The "face-changing" art of Sichuan Opera is a signature performance stunt that has been designated as a national-level intangible cultural heritage. Sipping *gaiwan* tea while watching a face-changing performance—where the dramatic spectacle on stage meets the leisurely pace of everyday life—creates a vivid tableau of local folk culture.
❹ A Journey Through a Thousand Years of Bayu History—The Three Gorges Museum:
The Chongqing China Three Gorges Museum—also known as the Chongqing Museum—uses 100,000 artifacts to distill the grandeur of the Yangtze River and the resilience of the human spirit into a dialogue spanning millennia, while recounting the epic migration of over a million people through vintage photographs, relocation tools, and tear-stained family letters.
❺ Exterior View [The Temple of Heaven on the Ridge—Chongqing Great Hall of the People]:
Located at No. 173 Renmin Road, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, the Chongqing People's Auditorium—construction of which began in June 1951 and concluded in April 1954—is a complex of buildings designed in a traditional Chinese style. Recognized as one of Chongqing's "Top Ten Cultural Symbols" and a landmark of the city, it stands as a masterpiece that ingeniously blends traditional Chinese palatial architecture with Western large-span structural engineering.
❻ Checking in at the "Space-Time Origin" of Chongqing—Jiefangbei:
The Monument for the Victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the People's Liberation—commonly known as the "Liberation Monument"—is located in the heart of the Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street in Yuzhong District, Chongqing Municipality, People's Republic of China. Construction began on October 31, 1946, and the monument was completed in August 1947; it stands as a spiritual symbol of the victory in the War of Resistance and is the only monument in China dedicated to commemorating the Chinese nation's victory in that conflict.
❼ A Night Tour of Hongya Cave: A Real-Life *Spirited Away*:
The Hongyadong Folk Customs Area—a real-life counterpart to the world of *Spirited Away*—is renowned nationwide for its magnificent appearance. Built into the mountainside and along the cliffs, it features the distinctive "stilt-house" (*diaojiaolou*) architecture characteristic of the Bayu region; the complex creates a seamless link between the Jiefangbei area and the riverside, offering visitors the chance to explore the stilt-house clusters and admire the scenic "Hongya Drip-Green" landscape.
