Ba Guo Cheng 巴国城
• Free admission

This area is actually an apartment community with a twist. All around the towering apartment buildings clustered in the center is an encircling neighborhood of low buildings built in the style of ancient Chinese architecture. Ba was the name for the region and the people who lived in the Chongqing area in ancient times, and this neighborhood is meant to bring some of that history back to life. The newly constructed “ancient” town is complete with stone bridges, a cultural history square, and a museum.

Bus Tip: 巴国城 [the long name is 绿韵康城南(巴国城)]
