It is totally touristic attraction, crowded and noisy, selling regular touristic colorful but useless stuff. Sichuan style street food is obviously spicy, but delicious, so if you decided to come here, better try one. This place is usually highly recommended, but to be honest, you won't loose much if you'll decide not to visit it. Just one of checkpoints in Chongqing. Yes, it has its charming atmospher in certain degree, but if you are expecting to dive into 'Chinese historic village', better not😉

    40 minutes by boat, the scenery on both sides is good, that is, the two stations are notified to get on the bus, and the one is told. The pick-up bus has also passed. The arrangement is not right and not detailed. The bear children are too many now, unruly, noisy and running around, wearing shoes and kicking people, can't say, parents are protecting and waiting for social discipline.

    The more millennium ancient town, the epitome of old Chongqing, and then the magnet mouth, the old appearance for a new look. I came to the porcelain mouth for the first time since the 1980s, this is the third time I have come to the magnet mouth. I got off the rail transit line 1, and after leaving the station, I walked along the guide sign to the archway, but I couldn't recognize the magnet mouth. Ciqikou Ancient Town is located in Ciqikou, an ancient town on the banks of the Jialing River in Shapingba District, Chongqing. It is a rare and antique traditional cultural and historical district. It is a tourist attraction with a rich cultural heritage, beautiful scenery and unique landform of "one river, two streams, three mountains and four streets". It is convenient transportation, leisure and entertainment. A good place to revisit the old dreams of old Chongqing. It is "Red Rock" that let me know the porcelain mouth, it is looking for me to walk into the porcelain mouth, it is nostalgia that let me come to the porcelain mouth again.

    The ancient town of the mountain city is different. Although there are many people, the scenery on the mountain is really beautiful. The ancient town without a small bridge and flowing water is still beautiful.
