Crown escalator

--One of Chongqing's characteristic transportation, "extreme challenge" was filmed here.

--It's not a scenic spot. It's just the way to Caiyuanba railway station. It's messy outside the exit. There's no need to play.

--The supporting facilities are very old, and the environment is not very good, but the escalator is really long, and it's worth seeing.

--The speed of the escalator is faster than that of the general escalator, and the 30 degree inclination is visually stimulating. People who are afraid of heights should be careful to enter.
