Chongqing Chenjiaping travel, what's the fun?

There are some places in Chongqing that do not have the so-called "Netflix" temperament, they are not like the "light rail through the building", "Hongyadong", "Magnetic Mouth" as the love at first sight. Magnetic Weakness Port" as people fall in love at first sight. But they have witnessed the history of the development of the city of Chongqing; perhaps, it is also the reason why you stay in the city.

These places include Chenjiaping. It was a sunny afternoon when I made the trip to visit it.

Chenjiaping, for many years, was the starting point and the end point of our journey.

I. Chenjiaping is a bus station

Chenjiaping Bus Station

In 1998, the Chengdu-Chongqing Expressway was opened to traffic. Located at the beginning of the highway "Chenjiaping bus station" officially put into use, from then on to take up most of the main city highway passenger transportation.

According to the information, the Chenjiaping bus station, is the western region's largest, most functional, the most advanced facilities for passenger and cargo transportation and information centers, and Chongqing bus station, east and west of the same composition of the municipality directly under the central government road passenger transport hub.

In the busiest time, the bus station a day more than 800 classes of buses, the daily passenger volume of 16,000 people.

But today's Chenjiaping bus station is no longer the same as it was in the old days, and anytime you see it in the past, it's a depressing scene with no one there.

Bus station departure

The status quo of the cold and impression of the lively contrast is strong, let people sigh of time relentless, years of cruelty.

The loneliness in the bustle is a little afraid to disturb, I passed it, but did not enter the station. Just turn around.

The red brick building, the guest house still in business, the corner newsstand, kiosk... they will be a familiar and unfamiliar life situation woven into the net, filtered my maturity as well as stability, so that I am happy to ignore the life of the earth-shattering positive changes, and only a tender state of mind, to cater to the days of long ago.

Once upon a time there was a teenager who hadn't learned the ways of the world, huddled in a crowd, looking at everything in a bad way; in his heart he wanted to go home, but he pretended to be uncaring, placing the moment of going home on the last train.

Inside the particularly sensitive, but to all the phenomena are numb.

After all the wind and dust, all the things are faded yellow marks, here every moment of the city's prosperity in time to connect the line, braided into a hard whip, swung into today.

Ginkgo Biloba

Walking through the bus station, along the Ginkgo Biloba Avenue, you can go all the way to Ke Yuan Si Road. If the timing is just right, the spicy Jianghu dishes at the Southern Garden Night Market are just the icing on the cake of this nostalgic trip.

Second, Chenjiaping is a big market

It's too early to eat, so take your attention away from the Chenjiaping bus station and go deeper into the surrounding areas where you often see, but never seriously explore.

You know, more than 20 years ago, Chenjiaping is just a small township in the urban-rural area, but now there are buildings all over the place, a mixture of old and new. Every building here, every shopping mall, is a microcosm of urban development, through which the process of change of a city can be discovered.

Electromechanical Market

Just next to the overpass stands the Chenjiaping Electromechanical Market. The rust-colored building is reminiscent of the giant Yuzhou Exchange City.

In the past, from Shiqiaopu to Chenjiaping, the largest computer market and hardware market in southwest China were gathered.

It is vaguely remembered that Yuzhou Exchange City, also known as "Hardware Exchange City", was characterized by the operation of measuring tools, hardware standard parts, electromechanical products, and had an enviable high time in the alternation of the 20th century and the 21st century.

Many of the earliest rich people in Chongqing City were born here.

At that time, the whole street here was filled with the bustling sound of goods being moved and unloaded, and buyers and sellers haggling over prices, which symbolized the "noisy" nature of the city, and also built up the prosperity of Yuzhou Trading City.

Another electromechanical market

Slowly, the wholesale market set up along the street became crowded with people and vehicles. The market then expanded around the Chenjiaping Mechanical and Electrical Market is the product of this rapid expansion.

Today's wholesale market has long lost the old days of people, the phenomenon of customers. The rapid development of the network, e-commerce dominates the world, there is no wholesale market in the epoch-making changes in the way of trading alone. To be able to exist down are in the teeth, just do not know, "all sides of the song" under the existence of how to break through?

Walking on the road, occasionally visible workers loading and unloading goods, did not see the buyer, but there are delivery trucks from time to time to open ...

Three, Chen Jiaping what

We all say that Chen Jiaping, but not a few people to say Chen Jiaping. Baidu search "Chenjiaping", the results are talking about "Chenjiaping bus station".

The most reasonable explanation for Chenjiaping is that it is centered on the bus station, widening around the development, connecting the geographic area of Ke Yuan four streets, Ke Yuan four roads, Ke Yuan one road, two roads, Shiyang Road, Longteng Avenue.

There is a lot of transportation, excellent terrain, and a lot of food.

The Boulevard

Walking down the boulevard, you will see an old English-style hotel. To the left of the hotel is Yugao Park, which leads straight to Shijiaobu; to the right is Yuzhou Road.

Gate to Yugao Park

Yugao Park, with its dense vegetation and tranquil environment, is a good place for neighborhood residents to relax and play.

Walking through the park, a spicy aroma comes from the setting sun. As you look around, next to Yugao Middle School, at the intersection of Keyuan 1st Road and Shiyang Road, hot pots, mutton soup pots, jianghu dishes, skewers...all kinds of food stores are in abundance, and it's starting to get lively.

The night falls slowly, and the lights come on.

Not far from the Chenjiaping Interchange Bridge flashing colorful lights, while the Chenjiaping Weather Station behind the bridge high astronomical tower like a giant.

Looking

The colorful lights confused the night. My friends and I picked a jianghu restaurant that cooks carp. While waiting, we sat quietly and watched Chenjiaping in the increasingly gentle night.

Instead of the straight and forlorn forms of the day, and the fossilized texture of cold memories of "business as usual," it has evolved into a glittering color in keeping with Chongqing's temperament today.

While the tenderness of the carp wrapped in a spicy aroma was being slurped into my mouth, leaving a sweet taste in my mouth, I roughly projected the future of this area:

Soon, the Chenjaping station of the rail loop will soon be opened; the Hongyancun Bridge has already been closed, and the tunnel connecting it to Chenjaping is under construction; the Chenjaping Interchange will be accessible in all directions ...

There are primary and secondary schools, as well as a number of schools in the area, which are located in the center of the city.

There are elementary school, middle schools, major markets, restaurants, entertainment venues, parks, nothing is lacking, excellent living environment is quite rare, good transportation conditions enviable ...

It is a fossil of a certain period of time in the past, but it is also a piece of sparkling gemstone with unlimited possibilities, full of hope.
