<br><br>RyanTwomey and his friends explore Chongqing, the largest city on Earth with 32 million people. They begin in a futuristic hotel with a see-through floor, surrounded by a skyline that feels straight out of a cyberpunk movie. The city's unique topography means trains run through the 16th floor of apartment complexes, a necessity in a city carved into mountains where space is at a premium. They discover traditional 'bang bang men' porters carrying goods up steep hills, a practice born from the city's vertical layout.<br><br>After a ride on the monorail that passes through a building, they enjoy a barbecue dinner on a mountain with a spectacular nighttime view. The bustling Hongya Cave area, with its stilt houses and neon lights, reminds Ryan of a scene from 'Spirited Away'. The group navigates chaotic street markets, dodging aggressive vendors with megaphones and sampling spicy chicken and dumplings. A memorable moment comes when they try a fish pedicure, which tickles uncontrollably.<br><br>Day two brings a cautionary tale about fluorescent mystery fruit bought from a street vendor, which turns out to be artificial and potentially unsafe. They also encounter robot waiters delivering food at a restaurant, showcasing the city's blend of old and new. Despite the chaos—loud megaphones, jaywalking, and a lack of English translations—Ryan notes that Chongqing offers an incredible mix of history, culture, and cutting-edge technology.
Chongqing is a city that defies logic, with 32 million people, trains running through apartment buildings, and ground floors that can be on the 22nd story. RyanTwomey and his friends dive into this cyberpunk megacity, experiencing futuristic hotels, mountain-top barbecues, and chaotic street markets. From fluorescent mystery fruit to fish pedicures, this is a whirlwind 24 hours unlike any other.

Probably those fluorescent mystery fruit from a street vendor. They looked like bouncy balls, tasted like maraschino cherries, and ChatGPT told us they were dangerous!
Is it true the train runs through a building?
Yes! The Line 2 monorail goes straight through the 6th to 8th floor of an apartment complex at Liziba station, with soundproofing for the residents.
What was the most surprising thing about the city?
How the street level can be on the 22nd floor of a building. You walk across a square and suddenly you're on a suspension bridge overlooking the city.
