摘要

The cityscape of Chongqing is characterized by its striking topography (see Figs. 3.1 and 3.2), which has been moulded for centuries by the meeting of mountains, rivers, and steep slopes (Cheshmehzangi A, Tang T (2024). Chongqing: Navigating rapid urbanization and regional development challenges. In China under construction: Shaping cities through recent urban transformation. Springer, Singapore. (pp. 81–106). Because Chongqing extends upward and downward, it creates a spatial experience that is as much about vertical movement as it is about horizontal navigation, in contrast to cities that primarily expand outward.
