My great grandpa lived in Shanghai pre-ww2. Just a day before Japanese bombed Shanghai, he closed his factory and flew to Wuhan with the entire family following the National Govt. He told my mom that it was so difficult to get the air tickets at a time that he had to buy them with gold bars. One of his daughters was born on that plane. Later when Japanese attacked Wuhan, he again flew the family to Chongqing where he stayed till the end of the war. He served as the deputy director of general tax bureau of the national govt in Chongqing.
Chongqing was the ww2 wartime capital of China. Due to its year-long foggy weather, theJapnaese have failed their numerous bombing attempts of the city. The exile wartime govts of Korea and Vietnam also moved to Chongqing at a time.

Chongqing is a very unique city, with imperfections. for example the weather is kinda extrme here, extremely hot in Summer and freezingly cold in Winter (yet no snow for joy, sad), and in winter 80 days out of 100 it is raining or cloudy. you just don't get much sunshine after September.

other than that, it is unique in terms of terrain and culture and there is a lot to discover and experience. hope you enjoy your time in Chongqing.

My wife is from Chongqing. People in the west have never heard of Chongqing. It is the largest city in the world that no one has heard of. The food in Chongqing is very spicy and Hot Pot is the most popular food. You also need to try Chongqing noodles, very delicious. The people of Chongqing are very kind and hospitable. I love Chongqing!
