For longer stays or other purposes, a visa must be obtained in advance from a Chinese embassy or consulate.

Getting to DXB

Dubai Metro Red Line connects Union and BurJuman stations to T1 and T3 (Airport: Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 stations). T1 is 20 minutes from Union, T3 is 22 minutes (AED 6.50–10 depending on zones and Gold/Silver class). Trains run 5:30am–midnight Saturday–Wednesday, until 1am Thursday–Friday. T2 (low-cost) is not on the metro; taxi or bus required.Taxis from Dubai Marina cost AED 70–90; from Downtown Dubai (Burj Khalifa area) AED 35–50. Ride-hail via Careem is widely available and comparable to taxis. Traffic on Sheikh Zayed Road is heavy during morning and evening rush.

Getting from CKG

Metro Line 10 from the airport to Jiaochangkou (city centre) takes 35–45 minutes (¥6–8) and runs until around 11pm. Transfers to Lines 1, 2, 3, 6 provide extensive city coverage. Airport buses serve major commercial zones (¥20–30). Taxis use a metered system; the Jiefangbei CBD area costs ¥60–90.DiDi ride-hail is the standard option for most travelers and generally cheaper than street taxis. Chongqing's mountainous terrain means surface travel times vary significantly by destination; the elevated metro is more predictable than road travel during peak hours.

Chongqing Climate

Humid subtropical climate. Chongqing is one of China's "Three Furnaces" for summer heat. Summers are hot and humid (30–38°C, June–September) with frequent rainstorms and thunderstorms that cause delays. The city sits at a river confluence and fog is endemic. Winter and early spring mornings often produce dense fog (2–12°C) that delays or diverts departures.

Overcast skies are the norm for most of the year; Chongqing averages among the fewest sunshine days of any major Chinese city. Autumn (October–November) offers the clearest weather. Pollution combined with fog can produce severe visibility reductions in winter. Pack layers for the dramatic temperature drops that occur with elevation changes in the surrounding mountains.
