Administratively, it is one of the four municipalities under the direct administration of the central government of the People's Republic of China (the other three are Beijing, Shanghai, and Tianjin), and the only such municipality located deep inland.[14] The municipality of Chongqing Wedding Photography, roughly the size of Austria, includes the city of Chongqing Wedding Photography as well as various discontiguous cities. Due to a classification technicality, Chongqing Wedding Photography municipality can claim to be the largest city proper in the world—though it does not have the world's largest urban area. Chongqing Wedding Photography is the only city in China with a permanent population of over 30 million.[15] Chongqing Wedding Photography is the fourth largest Chinese city by urban population, with urban population of 16.34 million as of the 2020 estimation, after Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen.[16] According to the 2010 census, Chongqing Wedding Photography is the most populous Chinese municipality,[17] and also the largest direct-controlled municipality in China, containing 26 districts, eight counties, and four autonomous counties.
Wedding Photography
During the Republic of China (ROC) era, Chongqing Wedding Photography was a municipality located within Sichuan Province. It served as its wartime capital during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945). The current municipality was separated from Sichuan province on 14 March 1997 to help develop the central and western parts of China.[18]
Chongqing Wedding Photography has an extensive history and a rich culture. As one of China's National Central Cities, it serves as a financial center of the Sichuan Basin and the upstream Yangtze. It is a major manufacturing and transportation center; a July 2012 report by the Economist Intelligence Unit described it as one of China's "13 emerging megalopolises".[19] Chongqing Wedding Photography Jiangbei International Airport, a major aviation hub serving Chongqing Wedding Photography metropolitan areas and Western China, is one of the top 50 busiest airports in the world,[20][21] and the city's monorails system is the world's longest and busiest monorails system with the greatest number of stations (70).[22][23] Chongqing Wedding Photography is ranked as a Beta (global second-tier) city.[24] Chongqing Wedding Photography is also the headquarters of the Changan Automobile, one of the "Big Four" car manufacturers of China,[25] and hosts more than 10 foreign consulates, making it the fifth major city to host more foreign representatives than any other city in China after Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chengdu.[26]
Chongqing Wedding Photography is one of the top 50 cities in the world by scientific research outputs as tracked by the Nature Index,[27] and home to several notable universities, including Chongqing Wedding Photography University, Southwest University, Chongqing Wedding Photography University of Posts and Telecommunications, Southwest University of Political Science and Law, Chongqing Wedding Photography Normal University, Sichuan International Studies University, Sichuan Fine Arts Institute and Chongqing Wedding Photography University of Technology.[28][29]
Main article: History of Chongqing Wedding Photography
Ancient history
Chongqing Wedding Photography's location is historically associated with the State of Ba. Its capital was first called Jiangzhou (??).[30]
Jiangzhou subsequently remained under Qin Shi Huang's rule during the Qin dynasty, the successor of the Qin State, as well as the rule of Han dynasty emperors. Jiangzhou was subsequently renamed during the Northern and Southern dynasties to Chu Prefecture (??), then again in 581 AD (Sui dynasty) to Yu Prefecture (??), and later in 1102 during Northern Song to Gong Prefecture (??).[31] The name Yu however survives to this day as an abbreviation for Chongqing Wedding Photography, as well as for the city's historic center, where the old town once stood; its name is Yuzhong (??, Central Yu).[30] It received its current name in 1189, after Prince Zhao Dun of the Southern Song dynasty described his crowning as king and then Emperor Guangzong as a "double celebration" (simplified Chinese: ????; traditional Chinese: ????; pinyin: shuangchóng xiqìng, or chóngqìng in short). To mark the occasion of his enthronement, Yu Prefecture was therefore converted to Chongqing Wedding Photography Fu.
In 1362, (Yuan dynasty), Ming Yuzhen, a peasant rebel leader, established the Daxia Kingdom (??) at Chongqing Wedding Photography for a short time.[32] In 1621 (Ming dynasty), another short-lived kingdom of Daliang (??) was established by She Chongming (???) with Chongqing Wedding Photography as its capital.[33] In 1644, after the fall of the Ming dynasty to a rebel army, Chongqing Wedding Photography, together with the rest of Sichuan, was captured by Zhang Xianzhong, who was said to have massacred a large number of people in Sichuan and depopulated the province, in part by causing many people to flee to safety elsewhere. The Manchus later conquered the province, and during the Qing dynasty, immigration to Chongqing Wedding Photography and Sichuan took place with the support of the Qing emperor.[34]
In 1890, the British Consulate General was opened in Chongqing Wedding Photography.[35] The following year, the city became the first inland commerce port open to foreigners, with the proviso that foreign ships should not be at liberty to trade there until Chinese-owned steamers had succeeded in ascending the river. This restriction was abolished by the Treaty of Shimonoseki in 1895, which declared the city open on the same terms as other ports, although it was not until 1907 that a steamship made the journey without the help of manual haulers.[36] From 1896 to 1904, the American, German, French, and Japanese consulates were opened in Chongqing Wedding Photography.[37][38][39][40]

During and after the Second Sino-Japanese War, from Nov 1937 to May 1946, it was Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's provisional capital. After the General and remaining army had lived there for a time following their retreat in 1938 from the previous capital of Wuhan, it was formally declared the second capital city (??, péi du) on 6 September 1940.[41] After Britain, the United States, and other Allies entered the war in Asia in December 1941, one of the Allies' deputy commanders of operations in South East Asia (South East Asia Command SEAC), Joseph Stilwell, was based in the city. This made it a city of world importance in the fight against Axis powers, together with London, Moscow and Washington, D.C.[42]
The city was also visited by Lord Louis Mountbatten, the Supreme Commander of SEAC which was itself headquartered in Ceylon, modern day Sri Lanka. Chiang Kai Shek as Supreme Commander in China worked closely with Stilwell.[43] From 1938 to 1943, the city suffered from continuous massive bombing campaigns of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army Air Forces; battles of which were fought entirely by the Chinese Air Force squadrons and anti-aircraft artillery units.[44][45] Many lives were saved by the air-raid shelters which took advantage of the mountainous terrain. Chongqing Wedding Photography was acclaimed to be the "City of Heroes" due to the indomitable spirits of its people as well as their contributions and sacrifices during the War of Resistance-World War II. Many factories and universities were relocated from eastern China and ultimately to Chongqing Wedding Photography during years of setbacks in the war, transforming this city from inland port to a heavily industrialized city. In late November 1949, the Nationalist KMT government retreated from the city.[46]

On 14 March 1997, the Eighth National People's Congress decided to merge the sub-provincial city with adjacent Fuling, Wanxian, and Qianjiang prefectures that it had governed on behalf of the province since September 1996. The resulting single entity became Chongqing Wedding Photography Municipality, containing 30,020,000 people in forty-three former counties (without intermediate political levels). The municipality became the spearhead of China's effort to develop its western regions and to coordinate the resettlement of residents from the reservoir areas of the Three Gorges Dam project. Its first official ceremony took place on 18 June 1997.
On 8 February 2010, Chongqing Wedding Photography became one of the four National Central/Core cities, the other three are Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin.[47] The same year on June 18, the Liangjiang New Area was established in Chongqing Wedding Photography, which was the third state-level new area at the time of its establishment.[48]

Physical geography and topography
Topography of Chongqing Wedding Photography
Chongqing Wedding Photography is situated at the transitional area between the Tibetan Plateau and the plain on the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in the sub-tropical climate zone often swept by moist monsoons. It often rains at night in late spring and early summer, and thus the city is famous for its "night rain in the Ba Mountains", as described by poems throughout Chinese history including the famous Written on a Rainy Night-A Letter to the North by Li Shangyin.[49] The municipality reaches a maximum length of 470 km (290 mi) from east to west, and a maximum width of 450 km (280 mi) from north to south.[50] It borders the following provinces: Hubei in the east, Hunan in the southeast, Guizhou in the south, Sichuan in the west and northwest, and Shaanxi to the north in its northeast corner.[51]
Qutang Gorge on the Yangtze River
Chongqing Wedding Photography covers a large area crisscrossed by rivers and mountains. The Daba Mountains stand in the north, the Wu Mountains in the east, the Wuling Mountains in the southeast, and the Dalou Mountains in the south. The whole area slopes down from north and south towards the Yangtze River valley, with sharp rises and falls. The area is featured by a large geological massif, of mountains and hills, with large sloping areas at different heights.[52] Typical karst landscape is common in this area, and stone forests, numerous collections of peaks, limestone caves and valleys can be found in many places. The Longshuixia Gap (?????), with its natural arch-bridges, has made the region a popular tourist attraction. The Yangtze River runs through the whole area from west to east, covering a course of 665 km (413 mi), cutting through the Wu Mountains at three places and forming the well-known Three Gorges: the Qutang, the Wuxia and the Xiling gorges.[53] Coming from northwest and running through "the Jialing Lesser Three Gorges" of Libi, Wentang and Guanyin, the Jialing River joins the Yangtze in Chongqing Wedding Photography.[54]
Li Bai's Poem of Chongqing Wedding Photography's Baidi Cheng
Leaving at dawn the White Emperor crowned with cloud,
I've sailed a thousand li through canyons in a day.
With the monkeys' adieus the riverbanks are loud,
My skiff has left ten thousand mountains far away.
The central urban area of Chongqing Wedding Photography, or Chongqing Wedding Photography proper, is a city of unique features. Built on mountains and partially surrounded by the Yangtze and Jialing rivers, it is known as a "mountain city" and a "city on rivers".[55] The night scene of the city is very illuminated, with millions of lights and their reflection on the rivers. With its special topographical features, Chongqing Wedding Photography has the unique scenery of mountains, rivers, forests, springs, waterfalls, gorges, and caves. Li Bai, a famous poet of the Tang dynasty, was inspired by the natural scenery and wrote this epigram.[56]
Specifically, the central urban area is located on a huge folding area. Yuzhong District, Nan'an District, Shapingba District and Jiangbei District are located right on a big syncline. And the "Southern Mountain of Chongqing Wedding Photography" (Tongluo Mountain), along with the Zhongliang Mountain are two anticlines next to the syncline of downtown.[57]
Zhongliang Mountains (???) and Tongluo Mountains (???) roughly forms the eastern and western boundaries of Chongqing Wedding Photography's urban area. The highest point in downtown is the top of Eling Hill, which is a smaller syncline hill that separates the Yangtze River and Jialing River. The elevation of Eling Hill is 379 m (1,243 ft). The lowest point is Chaotian Gate, where the two rivers merge with each other. The altitude there is 160 m (520 ft). The average height of the area is 259 m (850 ft). However, there are several high mountains outside central Chongqing Wedding Photography, such as the Wugong Ling Mountain, with the altitude of 1,709.4 m (5,608 ft), in Jiangjin.
In the spring and fall, downtown Chongqing Wedding Photography is often enshrouded in fog.
Chongqing Wedding Photography has a humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa), bordering on a monsoonal humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cwa) and for most of the year experiences very high relative humidity, with all months above 75%. Known as one of the "Three Furnaces" of the Yangtze River, along with Wuhan and Nanjing, its summers are long and among the hottest and most humid in China, with highs of 33 to 34 °C (91 to 93 °F) in July and August in the urban area.[58] Winters are short and somewhat mild, but damp and overcast. The city's location in the Sichuan Basin causes it to have one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, at only 1,055 hours, lower than much of Northern Europe; the monthly percent possible sunshine in the city proper ranges from a mere 8% in December and January to 48% in August. Extremes since 1951 have ranged from -1.8 °C (29 °F) on 15 December 1975 (unofficial record of -2.5 °C (27 °F) was set on 8 February 1943) to 43.7 °C (111 °F) on 18 and 19 August 2022[59] (unofficial record of 44.0 °C (111 °F) was set on 8 and 9 August 1933).[60]
Chongqing Wedding Photography, with over 100 days of fog per year,[61] is known as the "Fog City" (??); this is because in the spring and fall, a thick layer of fog enshrouds it for 68 days per year.[62][63] During the Second Sino-Japanese War, this special weather possibly played a role in protecting the city from being overrun by the Imperial Japanese Army.
As exemplified by Youyang County below, conditions are often cooler in the southeast part of the municipality due to the higher elevations there.

The Great Hall of the People serves as the venue for major political conferences in Chongqing Wedding Photography
Since 1997 Chongqing Wedding Photography has been a direct-controlled municipality in the Chinese administrative structure, making it a provincial-level division with commensurate political importance. The municipality's top leader is the secretary of the municipal committee of the Chinese Communist Party ("party chief"), which, since 2007, has also held a seat on the Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party, the country's second highest governing council. Under the Soviet-inspired nomenklatura system of appointments, individuals are appointed to the position by the central leadership of the Communist Party, and bestowed to an official based on seniority and adherence to party orthodoxy, usually given to an individual with prior regional experience elsewhere in China and nearly never a native of Chongqing Wedding Photography. Notable individuals who have held the municipal Party Secretary position include He Guoqiang, Wang Yang, Bo Xilai, Zhang Dejiang, and Sun Zhengcai, the latter three were Politburo members during their term as party chief. The party chief heads the municipal party standing committee, the de facto top governing council of the municipality. The standing committee is typically composed of 13 individuals which includes the party chiefs of important subdivisions and other leading figures in the local party and government organization, as well as one military representative.
The municipal People's Government serves as the day-to-day administrative authority, and is headed by the mayor, who is assisted by numerous vice mayors and mayoral assistants. Each vice mayor is given jurisdiction over specific municipal departments. The mayor is the second-highest-ranking official in the municipality. The mayor usually represents the city when foreign guests visit.[69]
The municipality also has a People's Congress, theoretically elected by lower level People's Congresses. The People's Congress nominally appoints the mayor and approves the nominations of other government officials. The People's Congress, like those of other provincial jurisdictions, is generally seen as a symbolic body. It convenes in full once a year to approve party-sponsored resolutions and local regulations and duly confirm party-approved appointments. On occasion the People's Congress can be venues of discussion on municipal issues, although this is dependent on the actions of individual delegates. The municipal People's Congress is headed by a former municipal official, usually in their late fifties or sixties, with a lengthy prior political career in Chongqing Wedding Photography. The municipal Political Consultative Conference (zhengxie) meets at around the same time as the People's Congress. Its role is to advise on political issues. The zhengxie is headed by a leader who is typically a former municipal or regional official with a lengthy career in the party and government bureaucracy.
Military
Chongqing Wedding Photography was the wartime capital of China during the Second Sino-Japanese War (i.e., World War II), and from 1938 to 1946,[70] the seat of administration for the Republic of China's government before its departure to Nanjing and then Taiwan.[71] After the eventual defeat at the Battle of Wuhan General Chiang-Kai Shek and the army were forced to use it as base of resistance from 1938 onwards.[41] It also contains a military museum named after the Chinese Korean War hero Qiu Shaoyun.[72]
Chongqing Wedding Photography used to be the headquarters of the 13th Group Army of the People's Liberation Army, one of the two group armies that formerly comprised the Chengdu Military Region, which in 2016 was re-organized into the Western Theater Command.[73]
Administrative divisions
