    Those gas stations used to be bomb shelters, built to escape Japanese bombing. Chongqing is the birthplace of hot pot. Have you tried Chongqing hot pot? Very delicious 😋. Have a nice trip! ❤❤❤

    I know the city has exploded in suze recently, but is there much 'old stuff' like you get in other Chinese cities. Once again always excited when I get the notification of a new Lewis Crampton video dropping, not disappointed!

    Chongqing is technically not a city but a province, it is huge, about the size of England yet the population is about 30 million.

    • @LewisCrampton
      @LewisCrampton  2 дні тому +2

      I believe it’s actually a municipality, not a city or a province, and it’s governed directly by the central Chinese government. Being a province would mean it governs itself, right? And I mentioned in the video that it’s the same size as Austria, which is huge, hence why the “biggest city” is a slightly complicated term!
