Chongqing- Liangjiang New Area spans the core of Chongqing Urban Area over the two rivers and has encapsulated ecology, prosperity, innovation, and wisdom to symbolize Chongqing as a smart inland and international open metropolis.

On June 18, 2010, Liangjiang New Area was established as the first national-level development and open trade area of inland China.

In the space of just ten years, the 1,200 square kilometers of land north of the Yangtze River and east of the Jialing River has long become a trendy location home to wonderful scenery and smart innovation.

Today, Liangjiang New Area is not only the main growth pole of economic development in Chongqing, but also an important strategic platform for opening up in the western region. It is a smart city that offers quality products from across the world, while leading in fashionable consumption, and ecological wisdom.

Green mountains tower above surging clear waters amid the beautiful scenery of two rivers, where nature and humankind exist in harmony, and contemplation blends smoothly with technical wisdom.

Let us explore Liangjiang New Area in the open lands of China, the city of wisdom that is Chongqing.

Liangjiang New Area is located right at the physical connection point between the Belt and Road and the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which underlines its status as an open inland trade hub.

Whether large as a car, small as a mobile phone, or any commodity you may think of, you can find products from every corner of the world at the ports of Guoyuan and Cuntan.

Sparkling Czech crystals, stylish Kenyan handicrafts, mellow Sri Lankan black tea, and exquisite Singapore ceramic tableware are among 50,000 exotic products from 20 countries gathered in Lianglu Cuntan Bonded Port, where commodity exhibitions and trade centers brim with dazzling arrays which allow people to buy international products without having to go abroad.

Formerly a small wharf in Yangtze River bay, Guoyuan Port has transformed into a world-class transit station, while Cuntan has gradually developed into the first inland bonded port area and 4A rated scenic area.

The high level of openness in the international city of Liangjiang has overseen high-quality development and lifestyle.

Relying on open system reforms such as the Chongqing Pilot Free Trade Zone and Sino-Singapore Strategic Interconnection Demonstration Project, the Liangjiang area constitutes an international business district that is regarded as the most overseas orientated neighborhood in the hearts of citizens.

Examples of international lifestyle include art forms, landscapes, British streets, hip-hop, cuisine from western countries, Korea and Japan, plus activities such as trampolining, go-karting, e-sports, and other growing entertainment options.

Should these not suffice, there are more than 20 large-scale shopping parks in the Liangjiang New District including the Fortune Plaza, Xinghui Liangjiang, Palm Mall, N37 Moonlight City, Xiexin Starlight World, and Jinkemei Linhui. The exquisite surroundings, fashionable designs, and quality goods attract tourists from all over the world.

The slogan 'Come to Liangjiang to buy and sell worldwide' is no longer just a catchphrase. The unique multimodal advantages of water, rail, road, and air transportation epitomize the unremitting efforts to build an inland open gateway and to integrate through globalization.

As the Yangtze waters rush past, the nostalgic land eulogized by Yu Guangzhong has produced the new smart complex leading to the world, the Yuelai International Convention and Exhibition City, which attracts more than 300 exhibitions and tens of millions of visitors each year to experience new technology, culture, ideas, and tastes.

Lijia Intelligent Park runs along a Jialing River bay like a crescent moon. Machines deliver fragrant coffee to customers, autonomous cars shuttle tourists, robots perform Me and My Motherland on the piano, and picture frames converse with visitors.

These futuristic life scenes are already within reach at Lijia Wisdom Park! This is not only a beautiful park loved by citizens but also a smart landscape full of technological innovation.

The great advances of wisdom and 5G stretch thousands of miles. Lijia Wisdom Park is the first smart park in mainland China, with Tencent, Alibaba, Baidu, China Unicom, China Mobile, Yuncong Technology, Ubisoft, and other well-known tech companies featuring among the smart landscape.

In the Longsheng Cultural Tourism City of Liangjiang New Area, Mingyue Mountain shows off clusters of green peaks, while the waters of Mingyue Lake shimmer with elegant blue ripples. Over 20 university campuses have settled here, as well as the future industries of new energy, smart cars, robotics, aerospace, quantum information, life sciences, and other global cutting-edge scientific research projects.

It has become the place to be for scientific and technological workers across the world, through the blend of smart innovation, humanity, and nature.

Thanks to the pivotal roles fulfilled by the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone, Liangjiang Digital Economy Industrial Park, Lijia Smart Park, along with the Yuelai International Convention and Exhibition City, the picture of future smart cities is taking shape.
