Yuzhong Old City Walk:
Seventeen Gates
Chongqing’s famous “8D” cityscape is not only a modern story.
Around 600 years ago, Yuzhong Peninsula was already built around the traditional “Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams” layout, with nine open gates and eight closed gates.
In this two-part journey, we follow the old city walls for 21.2 kilometres.
The 12 stops most worth exploring are now marked on one map.
From the Ming Dynasty city walls to the Yangtze River Cableway. From a historic guild hall to sky-high walkways. From riverside docks to multi-level streets.
The full route is here.
Save this map for your next visit to Yuzhong. Go beyond checking off landmarks—follow these stops and get to know the story of Chongqing.
