The Longmenhao Ancient Street and Xiahui in Chongqing are fantastic, far surpassing Hongya Cave in terms of visitability! This area retains the site of the former consulate, with an old street charm that is unique and enchanting. You can also enjoy views of the Dongshui Gate Yangtze River Bridge and the Huguang Guild Hall. The coffee shops and creative stores here are also stylish.
Evening Departure: You can take the subway to exit 1 at Xin street to reach Xiahui, and exit 2 to reach Longmenhao Ancient Street. It is recommended to explore Longmenhao Ancient Street first, take a photo at the Chongqing frame, and then head to Xiahui, as the scenery varies between day and night and is equally charming. The lights at Xiahui are typically on from about 7:30 to 8:00 PM, and the Dongshui Gate Bridge lights up at 8:00 PM, offering stunning night views.
