About Chaotianmen & Two Rivers Confluence

Chaotianmen is the dramatic promontory at the tip of the Yuzhong Peninsula where the Yangtze and Jialing rivers merge. The Raffles City Chongqing — a massive complex with a sky bridge connecting two 350-meter towers — dominates the skyline here. The riverside promenade below offers the best views of Chongqing's extraordinary mountain-city geography and the confluence of China's two great rivers.
