With a population of 36 million (yes, you read that right \u2013 36 million!), Chongqing is a municipality that feels more like its own country. This city is massive and chaotic with futuristic skyscrapers and bustling street markets. It\u2019s one of the most affordable big cities in the world and there\u2019s something here for everyone to explore.<\/p>\n<p>In this old-school travel vlog, I\u2019ll take you on an adventure through the heart of Chongqing to meet the locals, try some of the spiciest food (hot pot, anyone?), and uncover the wacky culture that makes Chongqing such a unique destination.<\/p>\n<p>What really stood out to me about Chongqing is how it has all the energy and conveniences of a place like Hong Kong, but with almost ZERO tourists. The culture shock here is real, the people are incredibly kind, and the vibe is unlike any other city I\u2019ve experienced in my travels to all 197 countries.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you enjoy the video, and please comment below with your thoughts! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>#china #asia #travel <\/p>\n<p>\u2705  Don&#8217;t forget to SUBSCRIBE to my channel by clicking here \u279e   https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC0Ize0RLIbGdH5x4wI45G-A<\/p>\n<p>\u25b6\ufe0f Watch my favorite videos \u279e https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLhiP3P44ul3Y8LDbhXJmhVsVWcpe-7O4O<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to ElevenLabs for dubbing my videos into Spanish, French, Portuguese, German and Arabic!
