Fotuguan Park
佛图关公园
An ancient pass turned park on the ridge of Yuzhong Peninsula. Line 2 light rail runs through flowers and forest, and in spring the “light rail through the flower sea” is a popular photo scene in Chongqing.
Fotuguan was the western gate of the ancient city of Chongqing. Its terrain is strategic, and it was described as “the strongest pass under heaven.” Today it is a park that preserves the ancient pass ruins, cliff carvings, and old yellow banyan trees. The best-known feature is the viewing platform. Line 2 light rail runs along the mountainside above the Jialing River, and when cherry and peach blossoms bloom in spring, it looks like a “train heading to spring.” From here, you can see the Jialing River and the Ene’yan area in the distance. Admission is free. Get off at Fotuguan Station on Metro Line 2, and you can connect it with Liziba Light Rail Station and Eling Erchang along one route.
