Widely acknowledged as the largest industrial and economic center in southwestern China, Chongqing City is a popular destination for travelers with its hilly slopes, rivers, night views and spicy food

Meaning "double celebrations" in Chinese, the city was built in the 11th century BC during the Zhou Dynasty The city was founded in 1997 Prior to then, it was a city in Sichuan Province Now Chongqing is the biggest city in China in terms of area and population

Known as one of China‘s "Three Furnaces" (along with Wuhan and Nanjing), Chongqing is unbearably hot during the summer The surrounding mountains seem to trap the heat It is pleasant to visit the city in other seasons

Also known as "Fog City" in addition to "the Furnace," Chongqing is covered with a thick layer of fog for an average of 68 days a year, usually in spring or autumn The fog gives the place an air of mystery

Spread across a number of low hills (average elevation of 400 meters), surrounded by mountains, and straddling the Yangtze River, Chongqing is a natural wonder

The main features of the downtown area are the hilly slopes Travelers soon learn to get used to the feeling of going up and down, up and down Locals compare the terrain to San Francisco

At night, climbing up onto one of the less-populated hills affords panoramic views of the city‘s night lights Due to the city‘s hilly terrain, you can see a hierarchy of lights in all directions

Lights in different colors sparkle and shine in layers and are reflected in the sparkling river, creating a mirage-like view -- it‘s hard to tell the river and the lights

But it is to cruise down China‘s longest river, the Yangtze, passing through the famous Three Gorges that most tourists come to Chongqing With over 100 cruise ships that begin their itineraries in the city, there is no better place to start a Three Gorges river tour

Choingqing‘s hot spicy food is famous The most well-known dish is the hotpot, which is a pot of boiling broth that you put various uncooked food items into The meal always takes a long time, so it is good to eat it in the company of others

Situated on the bank of the Jia Ling River, not far from its confluence with the mighty Yangtze is the ancient village of Ci Qi Kou, formerly known as Long Yin Covering an area of some 12 square kilometres (2916 acres) it is 14 kilometres to the west of Chongqing Municipality

Chongqing itself has undergone many changes over the centuries, changes that have not been reflected in Ci Qi Kou with the consequence that the village conveys an impression of what Chongqing would have been like in the distant past This fact has been recognized by the State Council and in 1998 Ci Qi Kou became a protected cultural site

The history of Ci Qi Kou can be traced back for more than 1700 years During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368-1911) it was famous for its production of porcelain To date, over twenty old kiln sites have been discovered there It is because of the importance of the porcelain industry that the name has been changed from Long Yin to Ci Qi Kou which being translated means Porcelain Village However, the village was also an important supply post for shipping on the river, a fact that explains why there are so many shops lining the twelve lanes paved with their large flag stones that form the main routes Here you will find many outlets for craftwork, groceries and the like as well as a horologist, photography supplies, drugstore and a tempting supply of roasted nuts and seeds As one would expect there are also many teashops and restaurants to cater for the many visitors who come to see something of a way of life that has existed here for so many centuries

The majority of the houses date from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, periods during which many masterpieces of Chinese architecture were created Much of the two and three storey construction is of bamboo and timber Blue bricks and pillars set off the snow-white walls that contrast in turn with vermilion doors and lattice windows Black tablets and lanterns adorn the gates to complete the authentic and traditional appearance of the properties The quietly flowing waters of the Jia Ling River pass by the front of the village and have been its lifeblood for as long as anyone can remember For it was the river that brought goods and people here as well as carrying local products off to customers at home and abroad

The three notable attractions of the village are the tea bars, the artists' studios and the Shu Embroidery workshops Surprisingly, there are more than a hundred tea bars each with their own particular characteristics Here friends enjoy a chat or meet to discuss business So the tea bars offer the opportunity for you to meet the locals and also become acquainted with the unique folk opera

The ateliers, where you may see the work of the local artists will be of great interest It has been said that the more beautiful a place may be, the more artists it will attract You are sure to be amazed by the quality of the work on show and in progress as the many artists record the local scenes with skill and dedication With so many artists working in Ci Qi Kou, you will be spoiled for choice when seeking a souvenir of your visit

Artistic ability of another kind will sure to please your eye when you visit a Shu Embroidery workshop The craft is famous throughout China and the skill of the women you will observe working in the village is unsurpassed It will be difficult to decide whether to opt for a painting or a piece of embroidery as a reminder of your visit as the choice on offer is truly stunning

Choice is no less a problem when it comes to deciding where to take a meal at one of the many restaurants Local dishes include Mao Xue Wang, Qian Zhang Pi and JiaoYan Huang Sheng All come very highly recommended You may well ask 'What on earth are they' It is our opinion that whichever you try, you will not be disappointed and will soon come to realise why they are so popular

It is often said that a visit to China is a cultural experience This is never more true than when you visit a place such as Ci Qi Kou where you will find the local residents dedicated to their traditional way of life, unaffected by modern influences to be found in the larger towns and cities Above all, you will find a friendly welcome awaits you as the people of Ci Qi Kou share their special way of life with you for the duration of your visit

Chongqing is the birth place of the hot pot in China Once upon a time, it was a seasonal food designed to protect against the low temperatures and frigid winds of the winter People would sit around a table, eat hot pot, and revel in the instant warmth that would flood their bodies Hot pot has become more and more popular today, and it is widely enjoyed by people and regardless of seasons and regions

Eating hot pot is a joyful experience First, you need to choose the pot - spicy, pure or a combination of two - for the soup and dipping sauce After the spiced soup boils with a hazy steam, fish, meat, bean curds and vegetables can be added When the soup boils again, you can eat by dipping them in a little bowl of special sauce ¨Cbut be careful of the burning hot soup!In Chongqing, hot pot restaurants can be found everywhere and many have become very popular among the local people Xiao Tian E (Cygnet Hot-Pot Palace) and Su Da Jie, E Zhang Men are the restaurants most suited for mass consumption The hot pot restaurants in the Chongqing 5-star Harbour Plaza also serve decent food in a cozy environment

Introduction Surrounded by water on 3 sides, Chongqing is situated at the confluence of Yangtze River and Jialing River With beautiful hills and mountains the "Mountain City" has long been reputed for its wonderful scenery To its east, there is the famous Three Gorges on the Yangtze River; to its west, there are the 50, 000 stone figures sculpted on the cliffs during the Tang and Song Dynasties as the acme of perfection; in its south, the stone forests in Wansheng District seem superlatively made, yet they were created by nature; and in its north you cannot help meditating on the dinosaur fossils of 180 million years ago The Fishing Fortress in Hechuan has long been widely known The waterfalls, stones, forests, springs, and outdoor games in Simianshan Mountain in Jiangjing are fascinating In the city proper there are attractive Eling Hill, Loquat Hill, Night Scene of the Mountain City, Flowers in the Nanshan Park decorating the mountain city The East, South, West, North, and Tongjing Hot Springs are like five pearls scattered in the suburbs The Anti-Japanese Remains present the combat achievements in Chongqing by the Anti-fascist Allies during the Second World War and the Red Crag Village and Geleshan Martyrs' Cemetery bear the glorious loyalty of the revolutionary seniors For the city itself, it came into being three thousand years ago and got its name 800 years ago On December 8, 1986, it was appointed one of the Historical and Cultural Cities of China by the State Council

As one of the four municipalities under the Central Government (MDUCG), there are two things in particular immediately distinguish Chongqing from the other MDUCGs (Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin) The first, it is unusually large in area, covering 82,400 sq km, 24 times the total area occupied by Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin municipalities The 43 urban districts and counties under its jurisdiction represent three quarters the total number governed by the three other municipalities Secondly, it is unusually large in population At the end of 1997, 30429 million people lived in Chongqing, equivalent to 83 percent of the total population of Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin In Chongqing, however, more than 80 percent of the population is rural, a figure far higher than in the other municipalities

After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the Southwestern Sub-bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Southwestern Military and Political Commission were set up in Chongqing The city was made a municipality directly under the central government and continued as the political, economic and cultural center of southwestern China After the system whereby the nation was organized into large administrative zones was rescinded in 1954, Chongqing's status was changed to that of a city under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province In 1983 the central government decided to include Chongqing in the first group of cities where pilot reforms of the economic system could be tried out, its economic planning being directly supervised by the State Council The state also gave the city provincial-level administrative powers over its economy and formally made it a foreign trade port Since entering the 1990s China has been effecting its strategy of opening and developing the Yangtze River Chongqing was listed as an open city In September 1996, with the approval of the State Council, Sichuan passed administration over the cities of Wanxian and Fuling and Qianjiang Prefecture to Chongqing to govern on the province's behalf In March 1997, the Fifth Session of the Eighth NPC discussed and approved a resolution rescinding Chongqing's then current status of city, declaring Chongqing a MDUCG

地名翻译原则：

1．中国地址翻译成英文的翻译基本原则是：音译。用汉语拼音转写，参考《中国地名汉语拼音字母拼写规则》，但不用标记调号。

2．汉语地名：地名分专名和通名，专名按照汉语拼音方案处理，首字母大写，连写，不需要连接符。通名要按英文翻译。如：广东省 Guangdong Province

单音节的名称要专名和通名连写：如泰山：Taishan Mt

注意：景德镇应该是： Jingdezhen, 不是 Jingde Town

我们原来通常介绍重庆说是：a mountain city and a city on rivers，翻译过来就是山水之城。如果要翻“山水重庆”——Chongqing,city of Moutain and River；可能老外看了有点怪怪的，没有第一句英式，还有一种是：mountain and river city，chongqing 。
