Chongqing aka: Chungking,重庆

Its neat how the city is built on the mountains and around the river. The General Stillwell Museum isnt bad, but what I really liked was seeing the pandas at the zoo.

Business Trip

Now I am in Beijing,but I really want to go back.I miss my mother and father and hotpot,I miss all the stepladder in my city,I want to go back to lay down on my bed,looking out of the window,there are always tall buildings overspreading the sky,listening the carrying men laughing at something,and then I felt asleep,I will have a deep,sweet dream.It’s all my best wishes about a place called”hometown”.

I’ve been in this city during May 24-27.
A very beatiful city built on mountain and by the river.
Many pretty girls in this city:)

The “hotpot” is really delicious.

Chongqing is a beautiful mountain city. I love the city when I arrived at the city firstly.

chongqing is the most intresting place I have been in China.The women in chongqing are very beatuful,and chongqing people are very hot like the weather there.The most intersting thing is night market in chongqing.chongqing people like eating HUOGUO,they often eat HUOGUO at midnight in summer outroom.I love the feeling of eating HUOGUO in the summer night.

Is this still the “world’s biggest city”? If not, it sure does feel like it. It’s tough getting around without a little of the language here, or a guide. The extent of English on the streets is restricted to “Hello” which you will hear very often if you are caucasian. Not to mention the parents’ turning their kids’ heads to point and stare at you.
The architecture is interesting. There is a concerted effort to create a city center that shines like some monument to western society. There are malls and an ice-skating rink in huge sky-scrapers, but upon closer examination of these near-empty buildings you have to ask yourself, who goes to these places.
Sneaking a peak behind them reveals that there is a whole different world if you just walk around the corner. There are people living in conditions that in the US would be considered poverty level. The people seemed happy enough, though.
Going to tea houses in the back alleys with Chinese friends was a real treat. Check out how high the hot water pouring woman can get with her pot. The stream of water doesn’t miss your cup, no matter how far away she is.

spicy street hotpot is unreal!
