Chong King, China

The city along the Yangtze river is a starting point of many cruises to the Three Gauges Dam. It was known as mountainous city. The center of the city is occupied with modern high buildings. But It still keeps the atmosphere of old Chinese city, which Shanghai has lost now. During my stay, I was able to enjoy myself with those nice atmospheres.

As it was called mountainous city, there are a lot of slopes and people called “Bang Bang” used to carry parcels, cartons, etc., on the both sides with a pole on their shoulders. Many of those services have been replaced by vehicles. You can see people bringing items by the poles in the city.
