Description All through Chongqing these back alley ways snake around buildings and sometimes in the most unassuming of places. This for instance, is a 3 minute walk from the center of the city where such things as the Maserati show room, replica Empire State Building, Rolex/Tudor watch shops, and the most ubiquitous icon of the modern world, half a dozen Starbucks.

The man with the stick, probably a farmer from the country side that came to the city with the hope of finding more money, now carries stuff from one place to another trying to make a living. A very contrasting world here.
