When we finally started our adventure
That day in Chongqing started with a classic street food encounter—dried duck on the 18 Steps ancient street. Dridgers, who has visited the city twice before, took on the role of unofficial tour guide for his sister, brother-in-law, and two nieces. The family wandered through the historic lane, snacking on free samples and marveling at the gimmicks designed to lure tourists into shops. A stop at Mixue, the famously cheap ice cream chain, revealed the secret: everything is made from powder and water. The kids ordered chocolate sundaes, and the adults sipped weak fruit drinks while the humidity clung to them like a wet blanket. Dridgers pointed out that despite the ancient vibe, you're never far from a Starbucks or Tim Hortons. The highlight arrived at the iconic light rail station where a train passes right through a residential building—a scene that's gone viral on social media. The family stood in awe as the train slid through the structure, a perfect example of Chongqing's mind-bending infrastructure. As dusk fell, they headed to Raffles City, where the curved skyscraper offered a swing ride with terrifying views. Dinner at Commune brought relief: burgers, nachos with guacamole, and truffle pizza washed down with cheap local beer. The kids ran cartwheels in the open plaza while the city lit up around them—Chongqing at night, a neon dream with no drunk idiots in sight.
Chongqing is a city that defies belief. In this vlog, travel vlogger Dridgers brings his British family to his favorite city in China, and their reactions are pure gold. From the ancient 18 Steps street to the futuristic skyline, they wander through a city that's seven times the size of Tokyo but somehow feels intimate. They try everything from dried duck to powder-based ice cream, encounter a cleaning product salesman, and end up at a spot that looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. The mix of ancient culture and neon-lit modernity is mind-blowing, and the family's genuine awe makes this a must-watch for anyone planning a China trip.
