Join me in this vlog as I explore Chongqing, a city like no other in the world!
This place is often called China’s 5D City and even the Cyberpunk City of China!
💭 Why is Chongqing called the 5D City?
Because it’s built on mountains and cliffs, nothing is in a straight line! One side of a street...
Join me as I explore Chongqing, a city like no other in the world. This place is often called China’s 5D City and the Cyberpunk City of China for its dramatic, layered streets built on mountains and cliffs. The answer to why it’s called the 5D City is simple: nothing is in a straight line, and you can feel like you’re on different levels on opposite sides of a street. The glow of tall towers, neon lights, and foggy nights gives Chongqing a sci‑fi vibe that’s beautiful, chaotic, and magical all at once. Highlights include Kuixing Building, a Stairway to the Sky where the city behaves like a 3D video game, with floors and perspectives shifting as you move. Liziba Station amazes with a train passing through an apartment building on multiple floors, a clever and surprisingly quiet design that fits Chongqing’s fast pace. Hongyadong comes alive after sunset with red lanterns, neon signs, and street food stalls set along a cliffside, inviting you to descend from the top to street level and soak in a perfect cyberpunk mood. This trip leaves me convinced that Chongqing is the craziest city in the world, a place where architecture and life feel endlessly inventive and exhilarating.
Malina’s Vibe dives into Chongqing, a city she describes as the world’s craziest. She explains why locals call it the 5D City: a vertical maze built on mountains and cliffs where streets bend through different levels, making a ground floor feel like a higher story on the other side. The cyberpunk nickname comes from glowing towers, foggy nights, and electric neon that creates a sci-fi ambiance. The video highlights three standout spots that capture Chongqing’s unique layered landscape. First is Kuixing Building, affectionately described as a Stairway to the Sky, where the city feels like a 3D video game with floors changing underfoot. Next is Liziba Station, famous for a train running straight through an apartment building, a feat that still feels surprisingly quiet and practical in Chongqing’s smart urban design. Finally, Hongyadong dazzles after dark, with red lanterns, neon signs, and sizzling street food alongside cliffside architecture that requires visitors to descend into the街.c

Malina heads to Chongqing convinced the city lives in two dimensions at once, and she’s not joking. The day starts with a promise to uncover why Chongqing is billed as the 5D city, and she climbs into a landscape where ground floors coexist with upper levels and where a bridge between two buildings sits on a mezzanine floor. She shows a mind bending optical illusion, then hops to what she calls a skyline train station on a separate track that feels like it floats, before descending into a panda garden and a spicy souvenir bazaar. The atmosphere shifts as night falls, turning the old quarter into a cyberpunk dream with red lanterns and neon reflecting off carved wooden architecture. The finale whisks us through a maze like cave fortress that glows with neon and hosts a crowd of photographers chasing the perfect shot. All along, Malina emphasizes how friendly locals are and the ease of navigating with an intuitive map and a smart QR based metro card. You can feel her awe at the city’s coexistence of ancient streets and futuristic vibes as she heads toward what she calls the most popular place in Chongqing, Hongyadong, to cap off a day that proves the city lives in layers and in motion. Malina’s goofy charm and genuine curiosity carry the viewer from onlookers who offer directions to the photographer who negotiates a 30 yuan per image shoot, ending with gratitude for the vibrant chaos she found in this cyberpunk city.
Malina’s Vibe takes us on a high energy tour through Chongqing, a city she describes as the ultimate 5D metropolis where ground level and sky ground blur along vertical streets. She begins by promising a mind blowing look at places that have put Chongqing on the international map, then leans into the city’s signature optical illusions born from its hilly terrain. As she moves from the infamous crossed bridges and multi level viewpoints to the bustling sky trains and a surprising panda garden, Malina keeps returning to the feeling that Chongqing lives in two worlds at once old and new, traditional and neon drenched cyberpunk. The day unfolds with a crawl through electric night streets where ancient wooden architecture meets yellow neon, and every corner feels like a photo op in a sci fi novel. The tour finally lands at Hongyadong, where the lanterns glow and the maze of levels proves why this place is both a tourist magnet and a sensory overload. Throughout, she chats with locals who go
