Chonging (重庆) – 10/08/2019 to 10/10/2019 (Lila)

The last city that I visited in China was Chongqing, a gigantic city in central China, home to nearly 30 million people.

There are a lot of skyscrappers in Chongqing, but the city also hide little gems.

Chongqing is also known for its spicy dishes, for which the old town of Ciqikou is particularly famous because you can buy spicy foods and pots on every street corner.

I chose to come visit this city because it is the own of one of my former teacher in Omeida. Despite her busy schedule, we managed to have dinner together in a traditional hot pot.
