I don't know what it is about the Jialing River. I've always liked it. It seems pure regardless of what goes on at it's banks. Yesterday I rode home from work, most of the ride down the side of the river. Below is the Chongqing International Exhibition Center construction site. The slide show starts at Yue Lai, a river village near the construction site. Past Yue Lai I found a dead snake on the road. Then there is a wide place in the river just below the Guanyin Gorge. And the gorge itself. On the Beibei side of the gorge there are several bridges being built. I cross over the closed one that that the workers use. It's open to pedestrians only. Today I road down to this bridge and caught a decent sunset while fishing boat dragged their nets and an empty coal boat passed by.

Thank for the comment. Not Jin Gang Bei. This is Yue Lai about 13 km. from Shuitu (near the new international exhibition center).
