People's Great Hall

Situated on Renmin Lu, the People's Great Hall (renmin dahuitang), which was   completed in April 1954, is an example of typical  Chongqing architecture. Covering an area of 18500 square meters, this five-story rotunda is 65m high and 46m in diameter, spacious enough to hold over 4200 people and slightly reminiscent of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing.

How to get there: A taxi from the railway station to the Hall should cost about RMB10. It is difficult to reach this hall by public transport.
