As night falls over Southwest China's Chongqing Municipality, motorcycles begin to weave along Nanbin Road, with riders posing against the glittering skyline across the Yangtze River. Within seconds, the moving camera captures bridges, high-rises and riverside lights - creating a signature travel moment that has become known online as the "Chongqing Landing Visa."
The trend has now spread beyond Chinese social media. On Monday, French rider Valentin Debise, who competes in the World Supersport Championship on a Chinese-brand ZXMOTO, posted a video thanking Zhang Xue for taking him to experience the "Chongqing Landing Visa." 
The "Chongqing Landing Visa" is not an actual visa, but a humorous nickname coined by netizens for a popular motorcycle photo-op in Chongqing. Visitors ride or pose with motorcycles at designated spots along Nanbin Road, using Chongqing's dazzling nighttime skyline as a backdrop, while performing a series of signature poses, such as stretching out their arms, making a heart gesture or being lifted into the air, to capture their own video of the mountain city.
The motorcycle photo-op, a playful trend created by Chinese netizens, has rapidly gained popularity this year, with related videos garnering more than 1.52 billion views. An increasing number of celebrities, influencers and foreign tourists have joined in.
"People like the 'Landing Visa' not simply because motorcycles are cool, but because it combines some of the most distinctive elements of Chongqing into a single frame - the mountains, the river, the night skyline and the city's sense of speed," Chongqing-based motorcycle blogger Yu Tiancheng told the Global Times. "Visitors don't need to understand any complicated cultural background. They just get on a motorcycle, set off, and can start enjoying the city within seconds."
"For first-time visitors to Chongqing, motorcycles offer a very direct way in," Yu noted. "You're not just standing there looking at Chongqing. You're actually riding into its nighttime scenery."
The appeal of the "Chongqing Landing Visa" is not limited to professional riders or social media influencers. Young travelers from overseas are also discovering Chongqing through its everyday urban life.

A lively city
Kim Yeon, a graduate student from South Korea, visited Chongqing during her summer vacation in August. She told the Global Times that she had watched numerous "cyberpunk" videos of Chongqing on social media before her trip, but what surprised her most after arriving was the city's vibrant nightlife.
"Even late at night, there are still so many people on the streets, and restaurants, shops and small street-side businesses remain lively. For young travelers, that atmosphere itself is part of the travel experience," she said.
She was particularly struck by how Chongqing's nightlife is woven into everyday life rather than concentrated around a single tourist attraction. "You can have something to eat at night, walk around, go to the riverside to see the night view. A lot of activities can continue well into the night," she said.
This nighttime energy also provides a natural setting for the "Chongqing Landing Visa." 
After spending the day exploring the city, visitors can continue discovering Chongqing after dark through motorcycle rides, nighttime tours and street-level experiences. 
The motorcycle photo-op is therefore more than a photo opportunity; it has become part of the way young travelers experience the city at night.
That helps explain why Chongqing is attracting more young visitors from overseas. In the first half of this year, Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport handled more than 1.48 million inbound and outbound passengers at its immigration checkpoint, up 39.5 percent year-on-year, the fastest growth among China's 10 largest airports, according to Chongqing municipal people's government.
Nearly 70,000 foreign travelers entered Chongqing in July alone, up 84.7 percent year-on-year, according to Chongqing city government.
More than a destination 
As more overseas visitors come to see Chongqing as a city they can enjoy and experience well into the night, motorcycles, night views and street life are becoming more than just backdrops - they are becoming experiences that travelers actively take part in.
Yang Gen, from the Chongqing Municipal Development and Reform Commission, told the Global Times that Chongqing's unique landscape and urban development have created a naturally three-dimensional cityscape. "Many places here are themselves scenes that people can experience and capture on camera," he said.
In his view, what makes the "Chongqing Landing Visa" interesting is that it was not a tourism project designed by the city in advance. Instead, visitors discovered a location and created a new way to experience it themselves. 
"After people filmed and shared their experiences, more visitors were drawn to the same places, creating a natural chain of communication and influence," Yang said.
"This kind of approach, in which visitors participate in creating content and then attract more visitors through that content, is something traditional tourism promotion can hardly fully replicate," he noted.
Behind this new form of communication is also a shift in the travel preferences of younger tourists. 
According to Yang, the ability to participate, experience and create personal memories is becoming an increasingly important factor when young travelers choose destinations.
The rise of the "Chongqing Landing Visa" also shows how locally created travel experiences can spread beyond borders through social media. As more international visitors share their China travel experiences online, China is attracting growing attention overseas. 
Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently posted on X that "more people should visit China," while his mother Maye Musk has repeatedly shared her positive experiences of traveling in China.
The story of Chongqing offers a glimpse into this growing interest. The motorcycle trend is more than a viral moment; it shows how Chinese cities are attracting visitors not only through landmarks, but also through unique everyday experiences.
。    　　近期，黄金价格重现升势。Wind数据显示，8月24日，国际黄金现货价格（以伦敦金现货价格为例）盘中最高触及4659.96美元/盎司，当日涨幅接近1%，创今年5月份以来新高。拉长时间看，截至8月21日收盘，8月份以来伦敦金现货价格已上涨13.89%。与此形成对比的是，今年上半年，伦敦金现货价格在1月末创出历史新高后便持续回调，整体录得下跌7.20%。　　国际黄金期货价格也同步走高，COMEX黄金期货价格8月24日盘中最高触及4716.7美元/盎司，突破4700美元/盎司关口。

B | 截至8月21日收盘，8月份以来涨幅也达到13.50%。　　金价缘何出现上行？领秀财经首席分析师刘思源在接受《证券日报》记者采访时表示，黄金价格短期上涨的主要原因是市场对美债实际利率与美元信用重估，市场预期美元贬值，由此引发金价被动上涨。　　如其所述，近期金价重拾升势，美元指数则转而回落。自7月末开始，美元指数持续承压，7月27日至8月21日，美元指数下跌2.58%，从101点高位回落至当前99点水平。　　“当前金价的中长期底部主要是由美国财政信用、全球央行购金等结构性力量提供支撑；短期波动仍受实际利率、美元指数和流动性等因素影响。”东方金诚研究发展部高级副总监瞿瑞在接受《证券日报》记者采访时表示。　　刘思源认为，全球央行持续购金，使实物黄金需求成为中长线市场支撑。在美联储降息周期尚未完成之前，实际利率下行和美元信用重估提供了更多上升动力。

C | 　　从资金角度看下半年金价行情，财通证券日前发布的研报认为，整体来看，下半年黄金资金面边际改善，全球央行长期购金趋势不变、实际利率潜在下行预期带动ETF资金进场、投机资金低位回补，共同支撑金价。同时，报告称，考虑到每当美元全球储备占比回落，对应黄金储备占比显著抬升，未来各国央行购金趋势仍然强势，新兴市场购金仍有较大提升空间。

D | 　　展望未来金价走势，瞿瑞认为，基准情景下，美国通胀缓慢回落、美联储维持高利率不变，金价中枢缓步上移至4500美元/盎司附近。乐观情景下，若美联储开启降息周期且全球央行购金加速，金价有望重返5000美元/盎司上方；悲观情景下，若国际地缘冲突升级推动油价冲高、通胀反弹叠加流动性收紧，金价或二次探底至3800美元/盎司。（文章来源：证券日报）。
