如果你問我是哪個國家的人，我會說我出生于法國，卻是個“假法國人”。

為什么這樣說呢？因為我到中國很多年了，我對中國實在是太喜歡、太了解了，朋友們都親切地稱我為“中國通”。

在中國，我走南闖北，認識了不少朋友，北方有面兒的、東北豪爽的、東部精明的……今年，我來到了重慶，認識了我的新朋友——重慶。

If you ask me which country I come from, I would say I was born in France, but I am a "fake Frenchman".

Why is that? Because I have been in China for many years, I really like and understand China so much that my friends affectionately call me "China hand".

In China, I have traveled from south to north, and made many friends. The north is quite decent, the northeast is generous, and the east is shrewd. This year, I came to Chongqing, and met my new friend, Chongqing.

喜歡“重口味”的“老外吃貨” A “Foreigner Foodie” in Favor of “Heavy Taste”

重慶人熱情似火，就像這里的夏天一樣。

重慶對外國人的接受度也很高，一點不像我之前以為的內陸城市那樣保守。我常去光顧的餃子店老板很喜歡找我聊天，教我包抄手；出租車司機看我是個外國人，開心地一路給我介紹重慶的特色；學校里的老師，總是像朋友一樣和我交流。

記得第一天到學校報名時，朋友的父母從很遠的地方開車來接待，帶我去吃特色小吃，在這座城市閑逛，晚上也特意留我住宿，給我做了很好吃的川菜，對我親切得就像家人一樣。

我們的老師告訴我，重慶以前是個大碼頭，所以持續(xù)著一種碼頭文化和質樸率真的山民習性，很“接地氣”。我也很喜歡跟重慶人交朋友。夜里，我們會一起出去喝酒擼串兒大口吃肉。

重慶人說話比較簡短有力，跟我在成都所聽到的四川話有些不同。四川話比較溫和軟綿，我想這可能跟重慶人爽直熱情的性格有關吧：“吃火鍋蠻？”“逗嫩個！”

重慶的小吃“嘿巴適”，以前在北方就聽說過川渝的口味偏辣，我恰好又是個不折不扣的“重口味”，這一點也說明我是個“假老外”。在法國，我就總愛去中國超市買食材，看著視頻學做中國南方菜，所以比較向往川渝的生活。

來到重慶的第一天，我就吃了傳說中道地的重慶火鍋，太有味兒了，太好吃了，和我在北方吃的麻辣鍋不一樣，我也終于知道重慶火鍋為什么聞名全國了?；疱伿侵貞c美食的代表和城市名片，以至于人們常常會說：“到重慶若不吃火鍋，那就等于沒到過重慶！”

在歐洲，我們不吃動物的內臟。吃火鍋時，接觸到內臟的時候，我一開始還有點害怕，我試著嘗了一下鴨腸，覺得軟軟的很好吃。我發(fā)現，火鍋就是一種神奇的食物，它會讓人“上癮”，不管春夏秋冬，都想趕快去吃上一頓。

重慶那些熱鬧的小吃街、小吃店也讓我念念不忘，燒烤、酸辣粉、重慶小面、毛血旺、雞公煲等等，都能滿足我這個“老外吃貨”。由于歐洲人的飲食都很清淡，大多數以沙拉、面包、雞肉為主，我剛來重慶的時候還有些不太習慣，經?！棒[肚子”，真是讓人哭笑不得！現在，我已經習以為常了。

Chongqing people are passionate, just like the summer here.

Chongqing is also very receptive to foreigners, not at all as conservative as I thought inland cities would be. The boss of the dumpling shop which I often visit likes to chat with me and teaches me how to make Wonton; Taxi drivers are happy all the way to introduce me the characteristics of Chongqing when see me, a foreigner; the teachers at school always communicate with me like friends.

Remember the first day when I went to school for enrollment, my friends' parents drove from far away to take me to eat special snacks, stroll around the city, and even deliberately let me stay at their home in the evening, treated me with a very good Sichuan cuisine, as kind to me as family.

Our teacher told me that Chongqing used to be a big wharf, so it continued to have a wharf culture and simple and honest mountain people habits, and was very "down-to-earth". I also like to make friends with Chongqing people. At night, we would go out drinking and lū chuàn, gorging on meat.

Chongqing People speak briefly and forcefully, which is a little different from the Sichuan dialect I heard in Chengdu. Sichuan dialect is gentle and soft. I think it has something to do with people's straightforward and enthusiastic character in Chongqing: "Would like to eat hot pot?" "Dou Nen Ge!"

Chongqing snack is "Hei Ba Shi". I have heard of Sichuan and Chongqing's spicy taste before in the north, and I happen to be a true "heavy taste", which also shows that I am a "fake foreigner". In France, I always love to buy food ingredients in Chinese supermarkets, watch videos to learn to cook southern Chinese food, so I yearn for Sichuan and Chongqing life.

On the first day I came to Chongqing, I ate the authentic Chongqing hot pot, which is too tasty and too delicious, and is different from the spicy pot I ate in the north. I finally knew why Chongqing hot pot is famous throughout the Country. Hot pot is the representative of Chongqing cuisine and the city's business card, so that people often say: "If you don't eat hot pot in Chongqing, then you have never been to Chongqing!"

In Europe, we don't eat animal entrails. When eating hot pot, I was a little scared at first when I saw the entrails. I tried the duck intestine and found it soft and delicious. I found that hot pot is a magical food, which makes people "addictive", no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, people eager to eat hot pot.

The bustling snack streets and restaurants in Chongqing also linger in my mind, such as Barbecue, Hot and Sour Rice Noodles, Chongqing Noodles, Gross Blood Mong, Braised Chicken, and so on, can satisfy me, such a "foreigner foodie." Because the European diet is very light, mostly salad, bread, chicken-based, I didn't get used to Chongqing food and often got a run when I just came to Chongqing, which was really a wry experience. Now, I get used to it.

獨愛重慶朝氣蓬勃的拼搏勁 Love Chongqing’s Vigorous Diligent

重慶的“顏值”很高。到重慶的第一天，我就被這座城市的地形特點吸引了，它跟我去過的其他城市不一樣，高高低低的路和樓房，好像整個城市都修在山上一樣，是名副其實的“山城”。

在重慶，我見到的第一個地標性建筑就是人民解放紀念碑，它是重慶精神的象征，它注視著重慶的過去和現在。

網紅地洪崖洞我去過好幾次了，和白天相比，我更喜歡夜晚的洪崖洞。這個傳統建筑以吊腳樓為主，依靠著山崖修建，白天的時候像一個素顏的農家女孩，到了晚上燈火輝煌的時候，又像一個濃妝艷抹的風情女孩，很多游客都喜歡到這里拍照、吃小吃，人山人海的非常熱鬧。

重慶夜景最佳欣賞地我要推薦南山。中秋節(jié)我和朋友們一起到南山看了夜景，我們一邊吃著月餅，一邊聊天欣賞美景，整個夜晚的重慶就在眼前，隔著江水望著對岸燈光閃耀的渝中區(qū)，WFC 上的“重慶你好，世界你好”就像在跟我打招呼——“重慶歡迎你”。

到一座城市，首先要了解的就是這座城市的歷史文化。重慶的文化很久遠，我喜歡坐公交車尋訪重慶的文化勝地。

“巴渝文化”從古到今留下了許多歷史的痕跡，重慶古城的多數城墻因為歷史原因消失了，不過我有幸看到了通遠門，它給我的感覺比較完整，那些人騎著馬拿著武器前行，看起來像電視劇里古代中國城門戰(zhàn)場的樣子。

我相信包括歐洲在內的每一個國家都一樣，有江流河水的地方就有人生活在這里。重慶有長江、烏江、嘉陵江，所以大家稱重慶為“江城”，這里有獨特的“碼頭文化”；重慶高低不平，錯落有致，所以也叫“山城”；曾經的朝天門碼頭，誕生了一群用木棒賺錢的人，大家親切地稱他們?yōu)椤吧匠前舭糗姟保@很有意思，既可以用木棒勞動賺錢，還可以運動鍛煉。

在我眼里，重慶的魅力遠遠不止這些，歷史和現代完美結合的大都市，既有歷史文化的古城韻味，又有發(fā)達城市的時尚氣息。

喜歡一座城，也許是因為一個人；喜歡一座城，也許因為那兒的發(fā)展；喜歡一座城，也許因為那里有美食……對我來說，我對重慶的喜愛，超過了所有這些簡單的理由，因為我就是愛這片土地。

在我眼里，重慶就像一個朝氣蓬勃的年輕人，我愛這座努力拼搏、自強不息的城市。

Chongqing is a city with high "beauty". On my first day in Chongqing, I was attracted by the topographic characteristics of the city, which, unlike other cities I had visited, was a veritable "mountain city" with high and low roads and buildings, as if the whole city were built on a mountain.

In Chongqing, the first landmark I saw was the People's Liberation Monument, a symbol of Chongqing's spirit, which looked at Chongqing's past and present.

I have been to the cyberstar place Hongyadong several times. I prefer Hongyadong at night to daytime. The traditional building is mainly designed with wooden or bamboo houses supported by wooden pillars, built on the cliff. During the daytime, it is like a plain peasant girl, whereas at night when the lights are brilliant, it is like a girl with a strong makeup. It attracts many tourists, where they take pictures, eat snacks, bustling with noise and excitement.

I'd like to recommend Nanshan as the best place to enjoy the night view of Chongqing. On Mid-Autumn Festival, my friends and I went to Nanshan to enjoy the night scene. We were eating moon cakes while chatting to enjoy the beautiful scenery, with the whole night of Chongqing in front of us. Looking at the lights of Yuzhong District across the river, "Hello Chongqing, Hello World" displayed on the WFC was just like greeting me, "Chongqing welcome you".

The first thing I want to do when I go to a city is to know its history and culture. Chongqing has a long history of culture. I like to visit the cultural resorts of Chongqing by bus.

"Bayu culture" has left many traces of history from ancient times to the present, most of the walls of Chongqing ancient city have disappeared for historical reasons, but I am fortunate to see the Tongyuan Gate, which gives me a sense of integrity. At the gate, the people riding a horse with weapons, looks like the battlefield at ancient Chinese gates in the TV series.

I believe that every country, including Europe, is the same. Where there are rivers, there are people living here. Chongqing has the Yangtze River, Wujiang River, Jialing River. That's why we call Chongqing "Jiangcheng". There is a unique "dock culture". The undulating planes and wellarranged layout of Chongqing make it called "Mountain City". Once at Chaotianmen dock, a group of people who made money with wooden sticks worked there, who were affectionately called "Mountain City Stick Army". It is very interesting. They could make money by working with wooden sticks and doing exercise.

In my eyes, the charm of Chongqing is far more than these, the metropolis with perfect combination of history and modern, both historical and cultural charm of the ancient city, but also the fashion flavor of developed cities.

Like a city, perhaps because of a person; Like a city, perhaps because of the development there; Like a city, perhaps because there is food … For me, I love Chongqing more than all these simple reasons, because I love this land.

In my eyes, Chongqing is like a vigorous young man, I love the hardworking and selfimprovement of the city.
