SAVE these solo-friendly things to do in Chongqing
If you're visiting Chongqing alone and feel a little lost, start with these:
👉 Join in the Chongqing 打卡 (dá kǎ) culture
📍 Hongyadong, Liziba Station, Ciqikou Ancient Town and more
👉 Spend the night at a 24hr spa
📍 Golden Lakeside 24hr Spa 金色湖畔·温泉潮玩生活馆
👉 Feast on a solo mala hotpot in it's origin city
📍 Hooloo Hotpot 西葫芦·小铜锅
👉 Go on a shopping spree
📍 Jiefangbei District 解放碑
👉 Catch the sunset at a cafe overlooking the Yangtze River
📍 MÁQÙE 麻雀 at Xia Hao Lane
Solo-travel doesn't have to be daunting, especially not in Chongqing. We always make sure we set up our payment wallet before going to China, so making payment there feels stress-free!
On this trip, @hojeechaa used Changi Pay — which can be used to scan Alipay and Alipay+ QR codes — available in majority of the stores. It was convenient to sign-up with Singpass (which is mandatory for a Liquid Account) and top-up with PayNow!
Aside from enjoying the instant 5% off per transaction with Alipay+ Travel Treats, she also avoided the 3% service fee for transactions above ¥200!
*Pro-tip: Use our code [THETRAVELINTERN] to sign up for a Liquid Account and get up to S$138 e-Vouchers when you spend overseas by 31 Dec 2025.
