Chesh and Chongqing: Sun, Sin, Sanity, and the City that Sings -- Chongqing City Walks and Mapping the City -- Verticality and the Metabolic City: Chongqing's Adaptive Urbanism in the Heights -- Horizontality Reimagined: Unfolding Spatial Continuities and Urban Expanses in Chongqing -- Streets and Paths in Motion: Unfolding Chongqing's Layered Journeys.

City walks enable us to think and feel more intricately, and by living through them - hopefully less ostentatiously - through experiences and relations that genuinely matter. This sort of spatial syntagma is made of many correlations based on knowing what happens in cities, feeling what attributes are important, and articulating a set of relations to develop socio-spatial inter-relations and, ultimately, identities. In a way, "city walks" should empower cities to talk penetratingly while we hear, feel, and observe through experiences and thinking. Hence, city walks help the city talk. The City of Chongqing means a lot to me. It is a city that allows you to fall in love with a sense of urbanity for city life and experiences. It is a city that creates a distinguishable set of relations, both transient and abiding in many ways. It is a city with a different tone of heartbeat during the day and the night, a sort of vibration that lives through many arteries at different nodes, settings, and connections. It is a city of multiple networks - different from many other cities - that never sleeps. Most importantly, Chongqing has a unique magnitude of everything that a city can offer. It is a city that can be experienced differently every time you visit it, and you can live through those diminutive experiences via greater connections and expounded senses that exist but have to be experienced first. In this book, Chongqing is studied based on its sophistication of having multiple layers, multiple identities, and multiple localities. Hence, it is structured based on these three crucial aspects, including (urban) values, attributes, experiences, and livelihoods of Chongqing. This book is the first of its kind for a Chinese city and is aimed to reveal a genuine gem while accentuating with pride a city that never sleeps. This should be read and understood by scholars, urban researchers, and urban specialists seeking to develop better cities and communities. "Just Brilliant! Chongqing has never been portrayed any better than this book does so miraculously". - Tian Tang, Independent Researcher, China "Another unique mapping study by the author; and this time, through sensory and perceptible city walks of a global city - the beautiful city of Chongqing". - Aaron Golden, Independent Researcher, UK.
