“If you ask which city is the biggest on Earth, Tokyo or New York are likely to be common replies. But the fact is, the Chongqing Municipality covers an area of 82,000 square kilometres, the same size as Austria in all, and has now reached 32 million people, definitely qualifying it for the biggest city.”
The passage is excerpted from an article on CGTN titled "This is China: Chongqing". Please answer the questions:
What do you know about Chongqing Municipality, the biggest city in the world? Have you ever heard of it before? What piques your curiosity or interest about this city?
Chongqing has many nicknames, such as Mountain City and Fog City.I think this is due to Chongqing's unique geography, climate, environment and so on, which are different from other cities.Chongqing is my hometown,however,what I learned about it is not really enough.As an internet-famous city today, Chongqing has attracted tourists from all over the world with its magical scenery and attractive food, which makes me extremely proud.However, Chongqing also experienced a lot of changes before it became such a modern city.Chongqing is a red gene injected into the city, leaving the heroic deeds of the revolutionary ancestors, containing the Great Red Rock Spirit. Therefore,I want to find out more about the history and culture of this city.
Chongqing is the largest mountain city in the world, located in the southwest of China and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. The landform is dominated by hills and mountains. Chongqing is the largest municipality directly under the central government. The terrain of Chongqing is complex and the altitude difference is high enough, so many places in Chongqing always need to go uphill to get there. In Chongqing, people often walk on the flat floor, but from another perspective, they are upstairs. In Chongqing, it is easy to get lost, because the roads here are complicated and usually need to climb up the hill. In Chongqing, you can see the wonders of light rail crossing buildings. Chongqing's traffic is the most complicated city, and countless overpasses often confuse the locals. Taxis in Chongqing are also known as yellow Ferraris, and their high speed and humorous drivers have attracted the attention of many netizens. Shancheng is my most profound impression of Chongqing. When I was a child, I often saw Shancheng beer. Therefore, Chongqing is a mountainous city in my impression, and it is true. The food in Chongqing, especially the hot pot, aroused my curiosity about the city.

It has not only a magnificent natural scenery integrating mountains, waters, forests, springs, waterfalls, gorges, caves, etc., but also a rich cultural landscape integrating Bayu culture, ethnic culture, immigration culture, Three Gorges culture, capital culture, and urban culture. What interests me about Chongqing is its hot pot and terrain.

Located in southwest China, Chongqing is the economic, financial, science and innovation, shipping and trade logistics center in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the only national logistics hub with four types of logistics, an international consumer center city, and an important strategic pivot point for the development of the West.

Geographically, Chongqing does not have the advantaged advantages of coastal cities, nor does it have the stability of imperial cities, nor does it even have the Tianfu Plain of neighboring cities. As far as a city is concerned, mountains, rivers and high-rise buildings are not the core elements, but the real core elements are always people. I don't know how to explain the character of people in a city, the character is very different. But living in this city, you can feel this honesty.

Hot pot - is the most famous and favorite dish in Chongqing. Chongqing local people consider the hot pot a local specialty, which is noted for its peppery and hot taste, scalding yet fresh and tender. People gather around a small pot boiled with charcoal, electric or gas filled with flavorful and nutritious soup base. You have a choice of spicy, pure and combo for the soup base. Thin sliced raw variety meat, fish, various bean curd products and all kinds of vegetables are boiled in the soup base. You then dip them in a little bowl of special sauce. Be careful since the spicy soup base is burning hot.
