Located on the banks of the Jialing River, the ancient village of Chongqing Kongming Stele has a rich historical and cultural background, and is famous for its natural beauty and tranquil environment. 🚌Transportation: Take bus No. 518, 519, or 520 and get off at the Coal Therapy Station. Walk forward for about a hundred meters, and you will reach the gate of Kongming Stele. After entering the gate, you can choose to enter the scenic area through the small door, or continue walking along the side road. About 20 meters ahead, you will see a small path on the left. Following this path, you will come across a stream, and after about 10 minutes, you will arrive at the riverside village under the ancient tree. Descending from the S-shaped stairway of the riverside village, you reach the first photo spot. After taking pictures, continue walking down to see the stilted buildings, and then move forward to the food street. It takes about three to five minutes to reach the end of this street, which is by the riverbank. Completing the whole journey may not take more than half an hour. The river is currently rising, so be careful when playing by the river. Across the river is the Zhang Fei Ancient Trail, where there is a wild hot spring. Then, from Kongming Stele to Beiquan Hot Spring, you can choose to walk the Gorge Cliff Trail. This trail is entirely a suspended plank road, with the Zhang Fei Ancient Trail on the opposite side and the lush and jade-like Jialing River in the middle. The environment is serene, and along the way, there are quaint traditional buildings and dozens of centuries-old Podocarpus trees.

Jinkangbei Old Street in Beibei, Chongqing, is located at the foot of Jinyun Mountain by the Jialing River. It has prospered since the Qing Dynasty and has a history of over 300 years. At that time, there were many small coal mines on Jinyun Mountain, which were distributed via the Jialing River, and the nearby Jinkangbei village naturally became a transit station for coal transportation/sales and a water transport wharf. In the 1940s, Jinkangbei welcomed many celebrities, such as Liang Shuming, Sun Yueqi, Lao She, and a large group of industrialists and literary figures came to Jinkangbei to establish schools/start companies. At that time, Jinkangbei was a bustling hub of culture and excitement. However, due to various historical reasons, residents living in Jinkangbei gradually moved away, and another prosperous era of Jinkangbei came to an end. Since then, Jinkangbei fell into silence until the ancient town began to be closed for renovation in 2018. On New Year's Day 2022, Jinkangbei Old Street was officially opened, with such a large influx of visitors that it had to be temporarily restricted. This moment also marked the beginning of a new chapter for the ancient village of Jinkangbei. Jinkangbei Old Street is an ancient town worth visiting for both outsiders and Chongqing locals. Most of the buildings in Jinkangbei have been renovated, preserving the original architectural atmosphere. Since it has been turned into a tourist attraction with a focus on commerce, this commercial aspect is understandable. It is recommended to tour Jinkangbei from top to bottom, entering through the small gate next to the Jinkangbei Old Village Hot Spring Hotel, and then taking the riverside trail down for a more relaxed visit. You can also choose to take a ferry car directly to the riverbank, but it is not recommended to drive as you would miss many of the old street's sights. Naturally, there are many shops on Jinkangbei Old Street, mainly selling snacks, coffee and dessert shops, accessory stores, tea houses, and leisure bars. Jinyun Mountain sweet tea is quite good and worth buying. Additionally, there are restaurants, tea houses, and hot springs with stunning scenery and environment where you can spend a whole day perfectly. Along the riverside walkways on both sides of Jinkangbei, you can enjoy the scenery of the Jialing River's 'Little Three Gorges'. The walkways are built high above the river and amidst the dense forest, so even in summer, it's not too hot to stroll. Jinkangbei Hot Spring Old Village is open for free Business hours: 10:00—21:00 (Shop business hours) Detailed address: Intersection of National Highway 212 and Jinkang Road, Beibei District. Public transportation: Take bus 518/520 to Jinkangbei Station from Exit 2 of Beibei Station on Chongqing Metro Line 6. Self-driving: ① Navigate to the International Health & Wellness Hot Spring Resort parking lot - this place is above Jinkangbei, from where you can tour from top to bottom and then choose to return by ferry car. ② Navigate to the Jinkangbei·Hot Spring Old Village ground parking lot - this location is by the riverbank, from where you can tour from bottom to top.

🕙Queueing: Not many people. But still pay attention to parking issues during peak seasons. 🌿Environment: A very quaint ancient town with its own unique charm👍. Although small, the style of bluestone paths combined with older wooden buildings is very tasteful👍. 🏛General Layout of the Ancient Town: The whole ancient town is not large, but it is very essence-packed, feeling like no space for display is wasted. The layout of the ancient town is basically developed along the central stream🏞, which is also one of the souls of the ancient town✅. There is a small gate by the river at the ancient town, which leads directly to the Jialing River. Entering the small gate is the main body of the Jingangbei ancient town. It should start with the part of the Jingangbei ancient town that existed before, with many small shops, along the bluestone paths and the stream. Walking further inside, it is obviously modern-style imitation ancient architecture, mainly some small hot spring clubs similar to small fresh farm stays🏛. The whole town also has a bit of the feel of a 'lost ancient town', with lush green trees🌲 inside, and various mosses🌱 by the stream, very flavorful. 🏞Overall Impression: I had heard of Jingangbei a long time ago, and some people said online that the renovation of Jingangbei was a failure, but I didn't feel that way this time. I think it's a very nice town, and I even have plans to stay here overnight🌃, to spend more time savoring the taste of time here🙂. 🚩Attraction Positioning: When I went, Jingangbei was still under expansion, and it was expanding towards the mountainsides on both sides of the stream. The overall feeling is that it will be created into a hot spring-themed ancient town, plus the rich hot spring resources of Beibei, indeed a differentiated card has been played✅. I am quite optimistic about the future development of Jingangbei in terms of tourism. 🚗Location and Transportation: Located in Beibei, it is recommended to drive, there are some parking spaces, but not many. Subjective Overall Evaluation: 5⃣ points (out of 5) 😀Pros: 1⃣One of the quaint towns in my mind💯 2⃣The hot spring theme and the scattered terrain play a differentiated card 🤔Cons: 1⃣The ancient town is slightly small 2⃣Transportation is slightly inconvenient
