Stunning and superb night skyline!
It definitely is quite underrated and needs taller signature towers to give it some attention.

Chonqing is notorious for its polluted sky and dirty river (even clean, it would be that muddy color). During the day, these things are obvious, but the brown skies and river are invisible at night, and instead all we see is city lights.

Its smog, actually, not fog. That's probably why people don't take as many pics of Chongqing during the day- it doesn't look very nice.

Chongqing should definitely be a sister city of Pittsburgh, since the downtowns, with the three rivers, have like the same layout. Oh, and both are known for industrial air pollution, although Pittsburgh isn't really like that since the days of steel have ended.

It should be both, foggy & smoggy. Chongqing is well known for its humid & foggy climate.
