Located at the confluence of Yangtze and Jialing rivers, Raffles City Chongqing is designed by world-renowned architect Moshe Safdie, who also designed Singapore’s famous Marina Bay.

A design highlight is the ‘The Crystal’ sky bridge, nestled above four, 250m-tall skyscrapers, which houses the Exploration Deck, a viewing gallery accessible to the public, The Private Club, a members-only clubhouse, and a wide array of restaurants and bars at the Sky Garden.

Safdie drew on the region’s thousand years of waterway transportation culture to create an image of powerful sails, in order for Raffles City Chongqing to symbolise the host city’s surging growth.

With a total investment of €3.9 billion and a total construction floor area of 1.12 million sq.m., Raffles City Chongqing brings together a 235,000-sq.m. shopping mall, 150,000-sq.m. of Grade A office space, 1,400 residential apartments, Ascott Raffles City Chongqing serviced residence and the InterContinental Chongqing Raffles City hotel.
