Chongqing: Verticalism beyond skyscrapers

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleScientific

Abstract

With nearly 34 million residents, Chongqing stands as one of the world’s largest urban areas, defined by its steep terrain and unique verticality. This southwestern Chinese city integrates architecture with natural topography, creating interconnected pathways, towering structures, and multi-level transportation systems. Known for its “cyberpunk” aesthetics, landmarks like Raffles City and Hongyadong blend modernity with heritage.
