when we were in CQ a few years ago we found a used bookshop that sold old books by the pound, but they were happy to sell us the one book that we picked out, a tourism coffee table book from the 90s about CQ itself. there are so many great pictures in that book, scenes of a city growing up and developing. barely any skyscrapers but already a lot of those giant highrise 90s apartment buildings.
china in the 90s was a different world. Chongqing still looks somewhat similar, i’m sure Chengdu and Changsha etc are completely unrecognizable
