About Chongqing
Mountain city where the Jialing joins the Yangtze, and China's wartime capital. Its cliffs and stairways make it unlike any other Chinese metropolis.
Population about 8,500,000 at the game's 2010 snapshot.
Chongqing is a business market: its traffic comes from companies and connections rather than from holidays, which rewards frequency over seat count.
