Chongqing was originally the capital of the State of Ba over three thousand years. The place was called Jiangzhou during the Western Han Dynasty. Later on, it was changed into Yuzhou during the Sui, Tang, Wudai and Northern Song Dynasties. Before long ,the place was renamed once more as Gongzhou for a short period of time. By the time when Zhao Dun was confered the title of Prince Gong. he stayed in this place. For the sake of celebration, he renamed the city of Gongzhou as Chongqing ( Double Celebration) immediately after he had ascended the throne. This name remains all the same over the previous eight hundred years, though the scope of this city had sometimes had a little change.

Chongqing is subtropical, hot in summer. Hence it had got the name "furnace city."Meanwhile. Chongqing has also got the renown as a "mountain city" because of its buildings on hillsides and mountains surrounding the city. The climate in Chongqing is often cloudy and misty. As a onsequence. it is also called "the fog city". Moreover?? since the average annual precipitation is about l,000 millimetres, the scene of raining in night appears from time to time.
