Location & How to Get There

Double Dragon Pearl sits in the heart of Black Mountain Valley, near Heishan Town in Qijiang District, Chongqing. It’s about a 1.5-hour drive from Chongqing Downtown (best accessed by highway) or a 30-minute ride from Qijiang Train Station. If you’re flying into Chongqing Jiangbei Airport, rent a car or take a taxi—the winding mountain roads are part of the adventure!

Natural Wonder: The Double Dragons

The highlight here is nature’s art: huge, smooth stones in a valley stream look like giant pearls. Water splits around them, creating two streams that twist like playful dragons. Walk along the wooden path, and you’ll see how the rocks and water dance together. It’s like a live painting that changes with the seasons—visit after rain for the best effect!

Hiking & Scenic Trails

Black Mountain Valley isn’t just about Double Dragon Pearl. The area has miles of trails through forests, cliffs, and waterfalls. The path to the pearl is easy (flat, with handrails), but longer hikes offer steep views and hidden caves. Wear comfy shoes—you’ll want to explore!
