Itinerary

Chongqing Theater

30 min

The theater is an iconic building located overlooking the Yangtze River in the center of Chongqing. And it is also a perfect place to appreciate the night views of the city. We will walk by the riverside in front of the Grand Theater.
Chongqing Luohan Temple

30 min Admission included

This is a Hidden Sanctuary in Chongqing’s Concrete Jungle. We will step inside to escape the city roar into a 1,000-year-old sanctuary filled with golden statues and incense. A peaceful escape you won't expect!
Jiefang Monument

10 min

Jiefangbei is Chongqing's downtown anchor — a WWII victory monument surrounded by neon, malls, and sizzling street food.
Liziba Station

10 min

This is where the monorail pierces straight through an apartment building. It's Chongqing's most iconic 10-second spectacle, and we'll catch it from the perfect angle.
Stilwell Museum/Former Residence of General Stilwell (Shidiwei Jiangjun Jiuju)

30 min Admission included

This was the wartime home and headquarters of U.S. General "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell, who commanded Allied forces in the China-Burma-India theater during WW2. The museum is small, personal, and surprisingly touching — original maps still pinned to the walls, his Jeep parked out front, photos of Stilwell joking with Chinese soldiers and Burmese mule drivers alike.
Stop 6

1 h 10 min

This is where we have our hot pot dinner, it is a commercial district by the north riverside, and it is full of Chongqing local restaurants, bars and small shops.
Stop 7

Passing by

We will walk pass by this area after dinner to our final destination of the day. In the evening when all the lights are on, you can feel the vibe of Chongqing being an international hub in the west China.
Stop 8

30 min

This is one of the best places to catch the night view of Chongqing's evening, from this is the perfect angle to see the cyberpunk city. And our tour will end here.
