TicketedClosure day

The paid, canonical night-view platform: a terrace and a six-storey 'radar' tower on the Nanshan hillside at about 500 m, looking straight across the Yangtze at the whole Yuzhong peninsula — the shot that is on every Chongqing poster. The deck opened in January 1997 around a century-old huangjue (banyan-fig) tree, the city's official tree, hence the name. The city price notice caps the ticket at ¥30 from March to October and ¥15 from November to February; platforms sell it at ¥30 year-round.

Before you goCheck the sky before you pay for the taxi: from November to February Chongqing evenings are often fog or low cloud, and from up here that means a grey wall — the operator publishes no refund rule for bad weather, so assume none. March to October the ticket is ¥30 (city price notice; ¥15 November-February); Ctrip and Klook sell same-day tickets at about ¥28-31 (Klook ¥30, list ¥31), one per ID per date. From August 2026 the garden is rebuilding the paths behind the tower for about two months (tower rear → Wangjiashan → gate 3 closed): enter by gate 2, park at car park 1, the terrace and tower stay open. The tower's top floors reopened in October 2025 as a café and a bar with a view. Getting down is the real problem: Nanshan has no metro, buses stop early, and taxis at the gate after 21:00 are scarce and often quote a flat fare — order a Didi while the crowd is still thin. Summer evenings are hot and the deck is packed on weekends; weekdays around 18:30-19:30, arriving before dark and staying for lights-on, is the sane version. Something wrong here? Tell us →
