Chongqing Off the Beaten Path Tips by herzog63

Chongqing is a Great city to just wander. I didn't see a whole lot of "must see" places but just taking in the city is what I enjoyed! This part that is shown in the photo is a great place to wander for a day or a few hours....but be prepared for lot's of hill climbing. The hill is very steep and the streets are a jumble of ups and downs. Some of the walkways appeared to go right through peoples homes...I was lost the whole time I was wandering but had a great time..I wish I would have made more photos from the experiences but I felt funny taking my camera out and pointing it right at people...I didn't want to ruin the fun time I was having by possibly scaring anyone with my camera. I'm sure if you are in a large group it would be better to break up into smaller groups...I don't know if the people would be so welcoming to a group of 25 wandering through their kitchen!

If you need a zipper or shoe fixed while traveling in China you can get a quick fix from one of these guys. They are located in many "hole-in-the-wall" type shops. There are so many to chose from and they have always treated me well as I have used them in many countries!
