Walk the city. Don’t just photograph it.
Forget the map. In Chongqing, the street above you might be another street altogether. Move through stairways, bridges, hillside lanes and elevated neighborhoods, taking in the city from the ground up — one unexpected level at a time.
Get lost in the layers. Find the real Chongqing.
Discover the city at its most cinematic.
As night falls, Chongqing transforms. Follow the rivers as they reflect the city lights, cross bridges suspended above the skyline, and climb to viewpoints where the mountains, towers and neon unfold in every direction.
When night falls, Chongqing becomes the spectacle.
More than a meal.

Beyond hotpot.
Hotpot may be Chongqing’s icon, but the city’s food culture goes far beyond it.
