New location of Public Secruity Bureau
By JABAROOTOO | 2/12/2007 6:14:31 AM
The PSB or 'Gong An Ju' has move from the very convenient Jiefangbei location to Jiangbei District on the cnr of Wuhuang Lu and Ziwei Lu in Huang Ni Bang.
From Jiefangbei catch bus 461,471,151 to the terminous on the corner. Walk about three hundred metres down Ziwei Lu past the large security gated driveway to a rather small and unsigned gap in the brick fence. Walk down the stairs to the left and you'll see a sign on the two story building indicating where foreigners can renew thier visas and other documents. You're likely to be the only person to visit all day. Nice and clean and quiet.
Will add other details when available ie other buses.

YZ05 and YZ06 Walking Tour of the Walled City
Opened in October 2005 this beautifully restored complex of traditional architecture is located on the banks of the Chang Jiang (Yangtze) above Dong Shui Men, downstream of the cable car crossing near the Liang Jiang (Two Rivers) tunnel.
Originally the local Guild Hall, Guangdong Merchants Guild Hall, a memorial to Da Yu, and several other buildings it is the most impressive group of buildings of it's kind in Chongqing.
While it hosts a small cultural relics collection, a history of the area and an art gallery it is worth visiting for the architecture alone. Much of the original buildings and wood carved theatres seem to have been in tact and many well worn stone doorways, stairs and flagstones can be seen.
The complex sits above a rather large portion of the old city wall and one of the city gates Dong Shui Men is outside to the left of both the exit and entrance.
You can find your way down the stairs towards Wang Long Men off Jiefeng Donglu or walk from Chao Tian Men. Entrance fee Y30 Open 9.00am til 6.00pm
Shooshow Silk Embroidery Gallery is now open just outside. Watch the craftsmen at work. Admission free.
