Liangjiang Pavilion

Night view of the river and bridge

CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- In recent days, the Chrysanthemum Exhibition in Eling Park, which has been suspended for 15 years, was held again, attracting many citizens. At night, chrysanthemum and light together will be more dazzling. The Kansheng Tower in Eling Park (also known as Liangjiang Pavilion) is a good place to overlook the night view of Chongqing. You may not know that it is no longer charged to climb the Liangjiang Pavilion now.

Recently, a reporter of Chongqing Evening News walked into Eling park. There were many citizens and tourists with different accents in Liangjiang Pavilion, some of whom were just photographing sunset with photographic equipment, and some of whom were waiting for the nigh view. It's worth mentioning that Liangjiang Pavilion was full of lights at night. The bright red light and the unique shape of the building itself formed a good landscape. Liangjiang Pavilion is located in the highest place of Yuzhong Peninsula. It was built in 1984, with a building height of 41.44 meters and an altitude of 380 meters. It is a seven-storey tower building. The Yangtze River lies in the south of Liangjiang Pavilion, and the Jialing River lies in the north. The stairs in the pavilion rotate up and you can appreciate the view at each floor. When night falls, the lights on the four banks of the two rivers start to shine. The lights and shadows are colorful and layered, just like the streets in the sky.

The Liangjiang Pavilion built in the 1980s is a good memory for many Chongqing people. Mr. Zhang, who lived in Eling Centre Street, said that back to 30 years, the favorite place for the old generation to have appointment with their lovers and appreciate night view was the Liangjiang Pavilion in Eling park. In the heart of "old Chongqing" people, apart from Nanshan Yikeshu, the best place to see the night scenery of Chongqing was Liangjiang Pavilion in Eling Park and Hongxing Pavilion in Pipa Mountain Park.

If you want to go to Nanshan Yikeshu, you have to climb the mountain; and now the view of the Red Star Pavilion becomes narrower. Therefore, the number of tourists in the Liangjiang Pavilions has increased dramatically in recent years. After all, you can have a 360-degree view of Yuzhong, Nan'an, Jiangbei and even Jiulongpo Districts. Standing on the pavilion, you will find that the tower near Daping Hospital is very close to you. Caiyuanba Bridge, Egongyan Bridge, Jiahua Bridge, Shibanpo Yangtze River Bridge and Huanghuayuan Bridge span the two rivers. The night scenery was very beautiful.
