Chongqing, known as the “Mountain City,” is a vibrant metropolis in the Chinese mainland that captivates visitors with its unique blend of modernity and tradition. Among its many landmarks, the Qiansimen Bridge stands out as a remarkable engineering marvel, connecting bustling districts across the Jialing River.
The cable-stayed Qiansimen Bridge features an eye-catching design with twin towers soaring into the sky and cables stretching like harp strings, creating a visually stunning effect. Adjacent to the bridge is the renowned Hongya Cave, a complex of traditional-style architecture that clings to the hillside.
At night, the combination of the illuminated bridge and the glittering lights of Hongya Cave forms a dreamy and romantic scene that enchants both locals and visitors alike. This year, the city’s charm is showcased in a special way as it serves as a sub-venue for a major Spring Festival gala, highlighting Chongqing’s cultural significance.
