On the morning of Nov. 11, the Century Diamond Cruise carrying the foreign guests of Chongqing Global Travel Agents Conference, arrived at Fengdu Ghost City, where China’s mysterious after-life stories were told. The ghost city imitates the judicial system of the man’s world, creating a “hell and earth” with strict hierarchy and functions of arrest, custody, trial, judgment, and enlightenment. It teaches people to abandon evil and promote kindness.

Jan Marcin, a travel agent from Slovakia, shared his thoughts with iChongqing after the visit to the ghost city. “This is totally different from what you can see in my country. I got a lot of information about China’s traditions, what do Chinese people like, and what does death mean to them. It is great," said Mr. Jan.
