| Chongching is at the upper end of the "Three Gorges" area of the Yangtze River. It is a large city in the heart of China, and is where we found a very traditional Chinese culture of today. Unlike the ultra-modern Shanghai, Chongching has traditional architecture and its markets and people have less "Western" influence. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Chongching is its markets and its people. These pictures take us back to one of our best days of experiencing other cultures. The friendly people and "foreign" foods were amazing.
