    Chongqing's weather is very warm. In winter it hardly ever gets below 0 C. In summer it is very, very hot and humid. Most of the year Chongqing is covered with fog, which is not so much from air pollution but from the humidity of the surrounding rivers and lakes.

    From Wandering around I kept find areas that had small markets selling all kinds of food ingredients. Turtles, snakes, various innards of who knows what. Looked like some pretty tasty ingredients for the wonderful Sichuan food that is made in the area!!

    The Luo Han Si Temple has a few interesting items in it. I wouldn't make a special trip here though. I still have the ticket glued to my Journal. I didn't write down how much it cost to enter. I also wrote down that I thought the Clay Buddhas had a tacky look to them...But I cannot picture them in my mind!

    Chongqing is the city, where you start your Yangzi River Cruise. There are now many modern and luxurious cruise ships. But the river is still mainly used by the local poeple for transportation. When you take a local ship that is still a big adventure!

    Chongqing has so many things to see, the night piece, the traditional culture, the diet, the Chuang opera........

    Standing by the river in the foggy evening, or walk down the flagging, the feeling is wonderful!

    There is a rotating restaurant in town close to the Mariott. It is especially good a night as it rotates around and lets you view the entire city

    I love walking around the town. It has everything I like. Mountains, rivers, and Sechuan cooking.

    Chongqing is the main province that the Yangtz River go through.
    Yangtz River is the longest River in China. Along it there are so many landscapes. You can have a trip with ship and go along with it. It will take you three days to finish this trip, and I swear you will have a wonderful time.

    All the landscapes along the Yangtz River is wonderful.
    The pic is one of the most famous scenes along Yangtz River, ShiBao Town. There you will find the oldest tower with 12 floors built by wood.
