Chongqing Jiangbei Airport (CKG). Extremely hilly topography; rely on CRT metro and walking bridges instead of standard 2D navigation.

•2D navigation apps can get confused by layered terrain. If lost, look for public elevators or ask locals for the nearest metro station.
•Chongqing hotpot is notoriously spicy; ask for 'Weila' (mild) and drink chilled herbal tea or soy milk.
