• Chongqing - Option 1: Enjoy a 3-hour walking tour of Chongqing Shancheng Alley (Mountain City Lane). Known as Chongqing’s “Architectural Museum,” this area features ancient city walls from the early Ming Dynasty, foreign consulates and churches from the late Qing Dynasty, hanging footstools, courtyards, air-raid shelters, and sea-style Shichaomen buildings from the Anti-War Period, as well as schools and residential houses from various periods after the founding of New China.

Meet at the designated location and proceed to Shancheng Alley. Stroll along the path, discovering Chongqing’s history and the local lifestyle. Explore numerous intriguing handicraft shops and tea houses along the route. Take a break at a tea house to enjoy some tea, and you might witness the traditional Face Changing show. Conclude the tour by savoring Bing Fen, Chongqing’s most popular dessert.

• Huangge Trail - Option 2: Embark on a 4-hour walking tour of the Huangge Ancient Road, one of Chongqing’s most picturesque and historic trails, dating back to the Tang-Song dynasties. This peaceful 2-3 km flagstone path meanders through the lush Nan’an District, shaded by centuries-old banyan trees (Ficus virens, locally known as “Huangge”). Once a crucial segment of the Tea-Horse Road connecting Sichuan and Guizhou, it now offers a gentle 3-hour hike with minimal elevation gain—ideal for light explorers. Along the way, encounter Ming-Qing era stone carvings, hidden temples, and nostalgic tea houses, all while enjoying views of the Yangtze River skyline. The trail concludes near Nanshan’s viewpoints, where you can recharge with local mountain cuisine. A peaceful retreat blending history, nature, and urban scenery.
