长江索道
This cableway, which is operated by the Chongqing Passenger Cableway Company Ltd (重庆市客运索道有限公司) takes one across the Yangtze River and provides a great view of the city. The trip covers a distance of 1166 meters and takes about 5 minutes.
Arhat Temple; 罗汉寺
A Buddhist temple dating from the Song Dynasty, which used to be known as Zhiping Temple (治平寺). During the Qing Dynasty, the temple was extensively renovated and it was during this time that it was renamed Luohan Temple. Luohan (罗汉) is the Chinese word for the Sanskrit term 'arhat', which in the Chinese Buddhist tradition basically means a person who has reached a certain stage along the path of enlightenment. Not surprisingly, the temple is filled with statues of arhats, though these are fairly new, as all the original statues were destroyed during the Cultural Revolution.
重庆来福士广场
Completed in 2019, this suite of eight buildings also known as Laifushi is one of Chongqing's newest landmarks. Its most notable feature is the 300-meter long, 250-meter high skybridge named the Crystal, which connects four of the buildings together and which is recognized as the second highest skybridge in the world.
重庆环球金融中心
At 339 m tall, the Chongqing World Financial Centre is the city’s third-highest skyscraper, towering above the Jiefangbei skyline. Inside you’ll find the WFC Huixianlou Skyview, an observation deck that arguably delivers the most jaw-dropping panorama of Chongqing’s endless sea of high-rises, rivers, and bridges. Tickets can be bought online or at the lower ground floor, which is also where the high-speed elevators whisk you skyward. Unlike Guangzhou’s Canton Tower, the WFC’s skydeck is refreshingly uncrowded—leaving you plenty of space to soak in the view that many would say is even more spectacular.
洪崖洞
