During the period waiting for bus departure, you may eat some food for energy. Speaking of Jiefangbei food, the Food Street has enjoyed popular support. However, this shop is rarely known by people. It is a small shop diagonally across from the 480. It is typical Chongqing snack shop, primarily for takeout, because only 6 persons can be seated at the shop.

When the bus arrives at Luohan Temple, the Driver will introduce Luohan Temple for the passengers in Chongqing-style mandarin. There are 500 lifelike arhat painted sculptures in Arhat Hall, in different shapes. There is a repeat broadcast at the hall gate to teach you how to count the arhats.
