Chongqing Craziest Monorail: Train Through a Building at Lij

Nestled among the mountains of southwestern China, Chongqing is a city with steep hills and dramatic elevation changes that challenge traditional urban planning. The Line 2 monorail rises and falls with the terrain, culminating in a remarkable section at Lijiba Station where the train descends from over 60 meters above ground, then enters a residential building on the 6th floor and passes through it before continuing its journey. This is presented as real engineering, not fiction, and the ride is described as one of the world’s craziest monorails. The video blends geography, technology, and urban design to show how Chongqing defies flat-land assumptions and embraces bold transportation solutions, from the high cityscape views to the moment the train enters and exits the building. The journey captures the interplay of mountains, bridges, and modern infrastructure that makes Chongqing a standout metropolis in China.
