A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR

Hello from Chongqing.

I live in Chongqing and started this guide with one idea: trip planning should be clearer, more practical and less overwhelming.

You can find countless beautiful videos of the city. It's harder to find simple answers to questions like where to stay, how to transfer between neighborhoods, or how much to fit into one day.

This site is being built as a collection of thoughtful travel notes. I use written English and translation tools where helpful. I'll publish firsthand photos and verified route details as research progresses.

What this is not: a licensed tour operator, a private car booking service, or an emergency travel help desk. This first version offers free editorial information only.

HOW THE JOURNAL WORKS

01

Useful beats flashy

Practical route details matter more than a list of photogenic places.

02

Honesty about sources

Sample guides are labeled until details can be checked on the ground.

03

A city worth revisiting

Good travel information changes; these pages are meant to improve over time.
