Where to stay in Wulong District
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Wulong District spreads far beyond a single centre, so where you stay turns on how much of Chongqing's rural south you want at your door. The county town suits first-time visitors who want shops, buses onward, and a base within reach of the district's services. Choose the town for convenience.
Travellers heading toward the Guizhou border often prefer a room deeper in the subtropical hill country instead, where the valleys of Wulong District open out and the pace slows well away from the denser cores of Chongqing.

About Wulong District
What are the main landmarks in Wulong District?
The pull of Wulong District is its setting rather than a single monument. Steep subtropical hills fold down toward the water. As one of the outer districts of Chongqing, it sits well away from the municipality's dense centre, and its interest lies in the deep river valleys, the terraced farmland stepped into the slopes, and the small county town that gathers its life.
Guizhou province lies just across the southern edge, so the district reads as the point where Chongqing's uplands hand over to its neighbour. Come for the landscape.
What is the history of Wulong District?
Wulong District took its administrative form in 1944, when the surrounding hill country was drawn into the boundary that still carries the name. The land is far older. Long before that date, farmers had already terraced these subtropical slopes and settled the valleys that run down toward Guizhou, and the district that Chongqing governs now grew out of that older worked landscape rather than a single founding event.
The record here is one of slow rural settlement, pressed into the folds of the hills across the generations.
Where is Wulong District?
Wulong District spreads across subtropical uplands in the rural south of Chongqing, its terraced valleys and steep hillsides running down to the Guizhou province border and staying green and humid through much of the year.
