Cable Cars are available to take passengers back and forth across the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers of Chongqing.

| Sunshine over Chongqing.....Usually we cannot see the sun at all, but occasionally it looks like the sun over a Montana forest fire. |
 |
| We thought that the tip of the peninsula of Chongqing would be similar to the tip of Manhattan in New York. Not so! At night, the streets are blocked by huge delivery trucks, and workers are making piles of boxes of "stuff" everywhere. Warehouses abound, along with small street-side stalls selling "food" items. |

| The Liberation Monument, downtown |
 |
| My heart aches for the trees.......All over the city, people have nailed nails into the trees......LOTS of nails. Sometimes they also wrap them with rope, which must eventually strangle the trees...... |
 |
| It is often difficult to walk down the sidewalk, with all the poles nailed to the poor trees. What do you think about this practice, (forester) Jared? |
 |
| Plenty of interesting architecture |
