Introduction
Chongqing City
Over 3000 years in history and local culture, the youngest
municipality of China,the largest inland city of rivers and mountains
on the planet,the city of miracles,this is new Chongqing, the economic
center of the upper Yangtze, prepared to embrace the rest of the world.
This is Chongqing, one of the four Chinese cities identified on
the world map at the UN General Assembly Hall.
Chongqing is famous for the towering mountains and roaring rivers,
which have witnessed the local civilization of over 3000 years.
Chongqing maintains its regional importance in defense, politics,
trade, and logistics for long; its glories and growth marked the history
of China. In the recent 100 years, Chongqing was first the commercial
and trade center of the region, then the wartime capital of then China
and now on the path for
greater prospect. It was
an ancient military fort
and now the hub connecting
China's

vast

west

and

eastern coast as well as


the rest of the world. It
was

entrepot trade and now the largest industrial & commercial city
of the region. It was a port city based in the Sichuan Basin and now
a municipality opened to the whole world.

Chongqing

is

now

at

new

momentum, a momentum for broader


achievements.

This

attributes

to

three unprecedented opportunities:


the construction of the Three Gorges
Dam Project and the migration of
residents

in

the

Three

Gorges

Reservoir Region, the establishment


of the municipality directly under
the central government, and China's
Go West Strategy. This brings new
vigor, new vision to Chongqing and
turns a new folio on Chongqing's
history.
Welcome to Chongqing, a vigorous
and

Life in Chongqing

Economy
Chongqing was separated from Sichuan province and made into a municipality
in its own right in March 1997 in order to accelerate its development and
subsequently China's relatively poorer western areas. An important
industrial area in western China, Chongqing is also rapidly urbanising. For
instance, statistics suggest that new construction added approximately
137,000 square metres (1.5 million square feet) daily of usable floor space
to satisfy demands for residential, commercial and factory space. In addition,
more than 1,300 people moved into the city daily, adding almost 100 million
yuan (US$15 million) to the local economy.
Traditionally, due to its geographical remoteness, Chongqing and
neighbouring Sichuan have been important military bases in weapons research
and development. Chongqing's industries have now diversified but unlike
eastern China, its export sector is small due to its inland location. Instead,

factories producing local-oriented consumer goods such as processed food,
cars, chemicals, textiles, machinery and electronics are common.
Chongqing is China's third largest centre for motor vehicle production and
the largest for motorcycles. In 2007, it had an annual output capacity of
1 million cars and 8.6 million motorcycles. Leading makers of cars and motor
bikes includes China's fourth biggest automaker; Changan Automotive
Corp and Lifan Hongda Enterprise, as well as Ford Motor Company, with the
US car giant having 3 plants in Chongqing.The municipality is also one of
the nine largest iron and steel centres in China and one of the three major
aluminium producers. Important manufacturers include Chongqing Iron and
Steel Company and South West Aluminium which is Asia's largest aluminium
plant. Agriculture remains significant. Rice and fruits, especially oranges,
are the area's main produce. Natural resources are also abundant with large
deposits of coal, natural gas, and more than 40 kinds of minerals such
as strontium and manganese,Coal reserves 4.8 billion tonnes. Chuandong
Natural Gas Field is China's largest inland gas field with deposits of around
270 billion m - more than 1/5 of China's total. Has China's largest reserve
of strontium (China has the world's 2nd biggest strontium deposit). Manganese
is mined in the Xiushan area. although the mining sector has been criticised
for being wasteful, heavily polluting and unsafe.Chongqing is also planned
to be the site of a 10 million ton capacity refinery operated by CNPC (parent
company of PetroChina) to process imported crude oil from the Sino-Burma
pipelines. The pipeline itself, though not yet finished, will eventually
run from Sittwe (in Myanmar's western coast)
through Kunming in Yunnan province before reaching Chongqing and it will
provide China with fuels sourced from Myanmar, the Middle East and Africa.
Recently, there has been a drive to move up the value chain by shifting
towards high technology and knowledge intensive industries resulting in new
development zones such as the Chongqing New North Zone (CNNZ). Chongqing's

local government is hoping through the promotion of favorable economic
policies for the electronics and information technology sectors, that it
can create a 400 billion RMB high technology manufacturing hub which will
surpass its car industry and
account for 25% of its
exports.
The city has also
invested heavily in
infrastructure to attract
investment.The network of
roads and railways
connecting Chongqing to the rest of China has been expanded and upgraded
reducing logistical costs. Furthermore, the nearby Three Gorges Dam which
is the world's largest, will not only supply Chongqing with power once
completed but also allows ocean going ships to reach Chongqing's Yangtze
River port. These infrastructure improvements have led to the arrivals of
numerous foreign direct investors (FDI) in industries ranging
from car to finance and r
etailing; such
as Ford, Mazda, HSBC,
Standard Chartered
Bank, Citibank, Deutsche
Bank, ANZ Bank, Scotiabank,
Wal-Mart, Metro
AGand Carrefour, among
other multinational corporations.
Chongqing's nominal GDP in 2011 reached 1001.1 billion yuan (US$158.9
billion) while registering an annual growth of 16.4%. However, its overall
economic performance is still lagging behind eastern coastal cities such

as Shanghai. For instance, its per capita GDP was 22,909 yuan (US$3,301)
which is below the national average. Nevertheless, there is a massive
government support to transform Chongqing into the region's economic, trade,
and financial centre and use the municipality as a platform to open up the
country's western interior to further development.
Chongqing has been identified by the Economist Intelligence Unit in the
November 2010 Access China White Paper as a member of
the CHAMPS (Chongqing, Hefei, Anshan, Maanshan, Pingdingshan and Shenya
ng), an economic profile of the top 20 emerging cities in China.

Public Transport
CRT Line 2 in Chongqing city
Main article: Chongqing Metro
The three main forms of public transport in Chongqing are CRT metro,
intercity railway, and the ubiquitous bus system.

According to the Chongqing Municipal Government's ambitious plan in May


2007, Chongqing is investing 150 billion RMB over 13 years to finish a system
that combines underground metro lines with light rail (heavy monorail). By

2020 this network will consist of 6 straight lines and 1 circular line; Line
1 and Line 6 are underground subway while Lines 2 and 3 are High Capacity
monorail. These improvements will add 363.5 km (225.9 mi) of road and railway
to the existing transportation infrastructure and 93 new train stations will
be added to the 111 stations that are already in place.
As of 2012, three metro lines, the 14 km (8.7 mi) long CRT Line 1,
a conventional subway, and the 19 km (12 mi) long heavy monorail CRT Line
2 (through Phase II), Line 3, a new heavy monorail connects the airport and
the southern part of downtown, have already opened. A new subway, Line 6,
is currently in trials and is expected to open later in 2012.
By 2050, Chongqing was initially planning to have ten metro lines, totaling
513 km (319 mi), with 270 stations, although more recent reports have now
indicated as many as 18 lines are planned to be in operation.

Dazu Grottoes
Built continuously from the first year of the reign of Emperor Yonghui
of the Tang Dynasty (650) to the Qing Dynasty, Dazu Stone Carvings"Grottoes
represent a beautiful gem in the treasure trove of grotto arts in China.
Located in Dazu County, 81 km by express way, west of the city proper
of Chongqing, the stone carvings of Dazu, chiefly consisting of Buddhists
images, are the art of religious nature. More than fifty thousand figure
statues are scattered over 75 places. Those carved out of the rocks at Beishan,
Baodingshan, Nanshan, Shizuanshan and Shimenshan are the most concentrated
in number, the largest in scale, the finest in craftsmanship and the richest
in content. In 1961, they appeared on the list of the first group of important

cultural relics under state protection as announced by the State Council
and in 1999 they were inscribed on the World Cultural Heritage List by the
UNESCO.
All the cliffside carvings, ingeniously conceived with a great
originality, are well-known for their variety in subject matter, richness
in content, and their co-existence of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism.
The unfathomable Buddhist theology was combined with folkloric life stories
easy to understand making people experience the temperament and interest
of the laical world in the"bounds of Buddha".
Nevertheless, the stone carvings of Dazu Grottoes differ somewhat from
the stone sculpture produced in the previous period. Emphasizing on both
the law of aesthetic standards and the law of art form, the outstanding
practice in Dazu was regarded as a good example to promote the advance of
the grotto art from chiseling to cliffside carving. Apart from being an
important component of China"s grotto art, it is a glorious chapter in the
history of worldwide grotto art during the years from the 9th to 13th
centuries.

corner of the city, fulfiling customers from home and abroad with their
different specialties.
As one branch of Sichuan cuisine, Chongqing cuisine is noted for its
distinctive spicy and pungent flavors. Different from Chengdu cuisine,
Chongqing dishes are spicier and stronger in taste. Chili pepper, sesame,
fermented black beans, scallions, ginger, garlic, wine, soy sauce and an
array of flavorings are used in almost 40 different cooking methods. These
methods include drying, salting, spicing, pickling, frying and smoking.
Color, smell, flavor, shape, and nutrition are all carefully balanced in
Chongqing dishes - no wonder people say that Chongqing food is not only
attractive but nutritious.

HOT POT
Chongqing is the birth place of the hot pot in China. Once upon a time,
it was a seasonal food designed to protect against the low temperatures and
frigid winds of the winter. People would sit around a table, eat hot pot,
and revel in the instant warmth that would flood their bodies. Hot pot has
become more and more popular today, and it is widely enjoyed by people and
regardless of seasons and regions.

Eating hot pot is a joyful experience. First, you need to choose the pot
- spicy, pure or a combination of two - for the soup and dipping sauce. After
the spiced soup boils with a hazy steam, fish, meat, bean curds and vegetables
can be added. When the soup boils again, you can eat by dipping them in a
little bowl of special sauce , be careful of the burning hot soup!
There are three kinds of hot pot. First, the spicy version called "Hong
tang"or "Red soup". Then, there is basically a bone soup without any spices
and tasty, simply asking for "Yuan Wei""or telling them "Wo Bu Yao La"which
means "I don"t want the spicy stuff!" Finally, there is a compromise "Yuan
Yang Huo Guo", or called "mandarin duck hot pot" which originally named
"double taste hot pot".
In Chongqing, hot pot restaurants can be found everywhere and many have
become very popular among the local people. Xiao Tian E (Cygnet Hot-Pot Palace)
and Su Da Jie, E Zhang Men are the restaurants most suited for mass consumption.
The hot pot restaurants in the Chongqing 5-star Harbour Plaza also serve
decent food in a cozy environment.

Sichuan Cuisine (Chuan Cai,Yu Cai)


Of the eight major

culinary art of China, Sichuan cuisine is perhaps

the most popular at home and abroad. Originating in Sichuan province of the
western in china, Chongqing-eastern in Sichuan , Sichuan cuisine, known as

chuan cai in Chinese, enjoys deeply the international reputation for
being spicy and flavorful. However, the highly distinctive pungency is not
its only characteristic, frankly, but also Sichuan cuisine boasts a variety
of flavors and different methods of cooking, featuring the taste of hot,
and sweet, sour, salty, or tongue-numbing.
Sichuan province, particularly Chongqing , has high humidity and many
rainy or overcast days. Hot pepper helps reduce internal dampness, so it
was used frequently in dishes, and hot dishes became the norm in Sichuan
cuisine. The region"s warm, humid climate also necessitates sophisticated
food-preservation techniques which include picking, salting, drying and
smoking.
