About this place
A functional commuter ferry running from Chaotianmen pier up the Jialing River to the northern Dazhulin suburbs, passing through the city's core on the water.
Drifter says
"Takes exactly 70 minutes upstream and 50 minutes downstream. Critical tip: the 10 RMB commuter ticket is only available during morning and evening rush hours — search the Chongqing Jiaoyun WeChat mini-program to check schedules before you go. Outside commuter hours you'll be paying 50 to 80 RMB for a tourist cruise ticket instead. Grab a window seat on the lower deck and watch the city's bridges and hillside architecture slide past at water level."
