"Magic Architecture, Chongqing's Internet Red" in the Chongqing Jiefangbei business district, there is a strange-looking building, attracting countless tourists to check in here, and it is Chongqing Cathay Art Center. According to historical documents: in 1937 before liberation, the Chongqing Cathay Theatre was built, located at the entrance of Chaijia Lane in the downtown area. The theater address was originally the private house of Sichuan Shishen Zhao Jujuan. It was run by Xia Yunhu, a cultural businessman at the time. The theater also had film and theater functions, mainly for screening movies. On September 28, 2012, according to a multi-dougong component from the Chongqing Huguang Hall, the design inspiration of using the traditional bucket arch space interspersed to express the spiritual connotation of traditional architecture was reconstructed into the current Cathay Pacific Art Center, composed of the Cathay Pacific Grand Theatre and the Chongqing Art Museum. It is also rated as one of the "ten landmark buildings" in Chongqing. Before walking to the Cathay Pacific Art Center, it uses black and red as the main colors, intertwining and overlapping like dumplings. Although it looks irregular, it is in order. The black and red questions are interwoven and piled together, looking from a distance like a burning bonfire, symbolizing the hospitality of the people of Chongqing. Involuntarily and the tourists around me took a few photos, because too many people came to punch in, it is said that in 2014, Zhejiang Satellite TV "Running Bar Brothers" program in the first season of Chongqing Station was filmed here to tear up brand war. Whether it is day or night, the Cathay Art Center will be the unusually eye-catching existence, it is a magical building, Chongqing's net red!

    Chongqing Cathay Pacific Art Center consists of Cathay Pacific Grand Theatre and Chongqing Art Museum, covering an area of 2.91 hectares and a construction area of 3.5 thousand square meters. Cathay Pacific Grand Theatre consists of an 800-seat medium-sized theater and two 350-seat viewing halls. Chongqing Art Museum is positioned on a medium scale, mainly to undertake exhibitions of crafts and art in China and abroad, and hold various cultural and artistic exchanges. The architectural shape is characterized by the interwoven pile of black and red "questions", which looks like a burning bonfire from a distance. Chongqing Cathay Art Center building shape comes from a multi-double arch member in Chongqing Huguang Hall, using traditional bucket arch space interspersed, stacked, cantilevered, and the red component is the building ventilation system, and the black component is stored as a refrigerant. Two sets of components work together to form the external ecological energy saving system of the building. The blowing space is formed on the east and west sides of the building, and there are some platforms and stairs to form a gray space shared with the city, which is conducive to the evacuation of large buildings and creates more leisure space for the city.

    "Returning Red Scorpion" is a new red theme stage drama launched by Chongqing Ballet in 2023! On August 15, the 78th anniversary of Japan's surrender was staged at the Cathay Pacific Art Center! Not bad!

    The periphery is the bustling Jiefangbei commercial center. The interior hides the artistic heart of Chongqing. The style of the building makes people unforgettable. Remember to make an appointment in advance. It will be faster to enter. The internal facilities are really perfect.

This building is very characteristic of Chongqing's hanging foot building. The art museum is located on its fifth and sixth floors. From the square in front, it is the fifth floor, but it is not the first to the fourth floor. To enter the Cathay Pacific Art Center, you need to go around the street from the side to the back. People often circle here.

    Chongqing is a magical place! After Hongyadong fire 🔥 throughout China, many net red dots have been released, there is such a strange building Cathay Art Center on the edge of Hongyadong, due to its unique shape, like a root "scorpion 🥢" inserted together, so the name "scorpion 🥢" building, which is a bit of a crash of the Expo "China Pavilion". Every night, many tourists will shoot wildly here, as if they want to replace all the dumplings at home with this one.
