Arrival and central Chongqing

Ride With Gabi takes a high-speed train from Chengdu to Chongqing for her first visit. The train journey introduces her to the city's modern transport links. Chongqing is a very large city, and its scale shapes the routes between the places she visits. She checks into a hotel inside a large shopping mall, an example of the city's dense urban development, then walks through Jiefangbei pedestrian street at night. Her visit to Liziba station shows the monorail passing through a residential building, one of the city's distinctive sights. She also stops at Erchang Culture and Creative Park as she explores the city. Heat and humidity shape her time outdoors, and she samples sweet potato noodles and a dessert from street vendors.

Finding Elling Park

Gabi's route to Elling Park becomes confusing, and she gets lost on the way. Trying to reach the park takes her through an abandoned area and into a steep uphill hike that proves harder and longer than expected. She eventually makes it to the park and enjoys its traditional pavilions and views over Chongqing. The detour becomes a central part of her first visit, which moves from the train and shopping mall to city streets, the monorail, the creative park and the hillside. Despite the wrong turn and difficult climb, Gabi keeps going until she reaches the park and takes in the pavilions and city view.

Her account shows the challenge of navigating unfamiliar streets as she makes her way between sights. The park visit rewards the climb with city views, while local food and encounters along the route add a more everyday part to the trip. Gabi reflects on the unexpected turns and the effort involved in reaching Elling Park during her exploration of Chongqing.
