CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- The dog days of summer (the hottest days of the year) are drawing near! Do you plan to stay in a chilly air-conditioned room or spend a holiday at a summer resort? If you’re looking for a summer resort, we will recommend you the Mingyue Mountain-Guaziping camping base in Chongqing’s Dianjiang, which is located at an average altitude of 900 meters.

The Mingyue Mountain-Guaziping camping base is located in Mingyue Mountain Forestry, only 5.5 kilometers away from the urban area of Dianjiang County. With an average altitude of more than 900 meters and a forest area of 3,000 mu, the summer temperature in the camping averages 25℃. Here you can stay away from the hustle and bustle of a city and enjoy a refreshing summer.

It takes around 20 minutes to drive from the urban area to the Mingyue Mountain-Guaziping camping base. Surrounded by dense forests, the camping base is scenically attractive.

Stepping into the camping base, you will be greeted by the well-arranged camping sites connected by the twisty footpath. The green canopy shades visitors from the sunlight, providing shade and cooling in summer. With a tent, several chairs, and a pot of tea, you can start a relaxing and refreshing summer afternoon here.

Two independent cabins are built between mountains in the camping base. When walking along the footpath, you will be amazed by the freshness and greenness of nature and feel like stepping into a world of fairy tales.

When night falls, you can sit or lie down in the tent, take a selfie with your phone, or just close your eyes in a trance. Just feel free to bathe in the calm moonlight, sniff the pleasant fragrance of flowers, listen to the songs sung by cicadas and birds, and enjoy a moment of leisure. 

As the first camping base to implement standardized construction in Dianjiang County, the Mingyue Mountain-Guaziping camping base has improved its infrastructure, such as sinks, toilets, charging sockets, and night lighting, to satisfy tourists’ needs for water, electricity, and lighting. In addition to 23 camping sites and two cabins, the camping base was updated with two shower rooms so that travelers will no longer worry about hygiene issues.
