How Visitors Rate The Ring Mall

Crazy awesome mall a bit outside of Central Chongging, but very much worth the trip by subway. There is not only plenty to do and see, but lots of great restaurants and bars. It seems like every floor has at least some picture worthy sights, so if you're in Chongqing make the trip and get snapping.

My friend and I visited Chongqing in September, and the weather was over 40 degrees—it was really hot! During the day, the best thing to do was shop. I found Chongqing Ring Shopping Park online, and the indoor lobby has a lot of greenery, rivaling Singapore’s Changi Airport.
We went around noon when it wasn’t too crowded. At first, the entrance looked like a typical mall, but after walking a little further, we discovered a hidden gem: a grand open space with a large garden, little islands, and flowing waterfalls, creating a mini tropical rainforest.
Besides its greenery, The Ring Mall has many dining options. We enjoyed some Chongqing hotpot, and there’s even an indoor basketball court where you can rent a ball to play. There are also plenty of family-friendly activities, which made the kids really happy!

I stumbled upon The Ring Mall in Chongqing while shopping, and the atmosphere here is truly refreshing! I have to say, the building design is top-notch. The indoor forest and plant decorations create a comfortable and tranquil vibe, making you forget the hustle and bustle of the city. Whether you're looking for a quiet place to relax or a beautiful spot to take photos, this is an excellent choice. Every detail shows a respect for natural beauty. Being here, you can not only feel nature's breath but also enjoy a unique artistic atmosphere!

Yesterday, I visited The Ring Shopping Park, known as the "Little Changi Airport." It's very close to Chongqing Happy Valley—just a 10-minute taxi ride. It's a great idea to stop by here for food and a break after a day at Happy Valley.
The most stunning part was definitely the Light Forest; it really does have that Singapore Changi Airport vibe. And the giant squirrel outside is quite a sight, too! I took a quick look around, and most of the shops are popular, everyday brands, making it very accessible.
The outdoor area has a relaxed feel. Sitting outside with a milk tea, watching the crowd go by in the perfect weather, was incredibly soothing.

It’s a great mall, but it's a bit far from the city center. We took a taxi straight from the airport. It’s definitely photogenic and beautiful! It was my first time seeing trees and gardens built inside a mall; it feels like fresh air has been brought indoors, which is so refreshing. We had a meal at a Cantonese restaurant on the sixth floor. If you’re visiting Chongqing, you definitely need to check out this mall for its uniqueness—it's really fun!
