China Trip Day 1 Vlog | Exploring Chongqing For The First Time!

We finally made it to Chongqing, China - famously known as the real-life cyberpunk city and the "8D mountain metropolis" where trains run through buildings and ancient temples sit tucked beneath mega-skyscrapers! In Day 1 of our China trip, we shake off the morning river mist, get lost in the cobblestone alleys of 1,000-year-old Ciqikou Ancient Town, go on a mission to hunt down authentic local halal street food (and taste real Chongqing beef noodles!), explore the dramatic contrast of Luohan Temple, and finish the night on a river cruise right in front of the legendary glowing golden stilt castle of Hongyadong. 📍 ROUTE & CHAPTERS: 00:00 - The Real-Life Cyberpunk City & River Mist 01:05 - Stepping into Ciqikou Ancient Town 03:12 - Street Food Crawl & Halal Chongqing Xiaomian Hunt 05:40 - 1,000-Year-Old Luohan Temple vs Skyscrapers 07:15 - Neon Rush at Jiefangbei CBD 09:10 - The Golden Reveal: Hongyadong & Two Rivers Night Cruise 10:45 - Final Thoughts on Day 1 & What’s Coming Next! 🎥 Shot on: DJI Osmo Nano 📍 Location: Chongqing, China (Ciqikou, Jiefangbei, Hongyadong) If you enjoyed this video, don't forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and hit the BELL 🔔 icon so you don't miss Day 2!
