Huangjuewan Interchange

黄桷湾立交

A five-level interchange in Nan'an District with 20 tangled ramps, nicknamed “too confusing even for GPS,” and a symbol of Chongqing's “8D surreal” character.

The Huangjuewan Interchange in Nan'an District links several major roads, including the Chaotianmen Bridge, the Inner Ring Expressway and the Airport Road. It has five levels and 20 ramps, with traffic heading in eight directions. Seen from above, it looks like a giant ball of thread, and it is the byword for Chongqing's “surreal traffic.” The best view is from a nearby tall building or pedestrian overpass, though you can also experience the winding ramps by riding through them. There are no dedicated viewing platforms nearby, so please watch for traffic and do not stop on the ramps to take photos.
