CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- A series of heavy rains after the beginning of Autumn begins cool weather. We thought Chongqing would say goodbye to the summer, but the weather report proved us wrong. So we will now recommend several good places for you to seek cooler weather.
Route 1:
Self-driving Routes: downtown -- Pianyan Ancient Town -- Shengtian Lake -- Jindao Gorge – downtown
自驾线路:市区—偏岩古镇—圣天湖—金刀峡—市区
Trip mileage: 150km
Pianyan Ancient Town, even though it is small, has more than 300 years of history, and is full of the beauty of freshness and tranquility. It's not only a place for wandering but also for water playing and catching crabs. There are lots of meaningful activities to do in Pianyan Ancient Town in summer, such as playing Mahjong standing in water, looking for delicacies or enjoying a foot bath in a stream. Are there any other attractive activities to avoid summer heat? Shengtian Lake is not very far from Pianyan Ancient Town. It has lush vegetation and particularly clear lake water, which offers an ideal place for camping, fishing and barbecue. It will be more comfortable to have a tour by boat or going swimming. In summer, what we desire most is coolness. When we stand on the top of Jindao Gorge, we will be greeted by the coolness of the lush vegetation on the towering cliffs. Nothing is more exciting than Jindao Gorge canyoning in summer. Tourists will paddle downward along the waterfall; with the water splashing in all directions, which kind of excitement can only be felt by experience.
Route introduction: It belongs to the short drive route. With scenic spots concentrated in Beibei District, it needs only one or two days.
