Watch 'Glamorous Chongqing', the city's spectacular drone light show launched in April 2025, where thousands of synchronized drones form glowing skylines, hotpot bowls and light-rail trains above the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers. In June 2025 the show set a Guinness World Record with 11,787 drones in the air at once. With around 90 shows a year, typically on Saturday nights, the best free viewing spots are Chaotianmen Square, the Nanbin Road riverside promenade and the area near Hongya Cave.
