This detailed image captures a vibrant nocturnal scene along a riverfront in Yuzhong District, Chongqing, China. In the immediate foreground, an elevated vantage point features a wooden railing, behind which a street vendor stall is operating. One individual, dressed in dark clothing, leans over a metal table, actively cutting a watermelon. Another person, with visible grey hair, stands in front of the stall, observing the fruit. The stall displays several whole and cut watermelons in crates, accompanied by a white styrofoam cooler, a green plastic container, and a woven basket. A "No Smoking" sign is affixed to the wooden railing. Below the foreground, a dense arrangement of green trees, illuminated from below, partially conceals a crowded lower-level walkway or plaza. Numerous pedestrians are visible navigating this brightly lit area, which appears to lead towards the river. A single white vehicle is discernible on a road to the left. The background is dominated by a wide body of water, likely the Yangtze or Jialing River, reflecting multiple hues of artificial light, predominantly red, blue, and yellow. A large, ornate passenger ship, brightly adorned with yellow and red lights, is positioned prominently on the river. This vessel features multiple decks, traditional-style roofs, and an upper deck populated with numerous passengers. Chinese characters on the ship's signage translate to "Chongqing Liangjiang Tour" and "Two Rivers Night View," among others. Flanking the ship are several floating piers, identifiable as "Pier 2" and "Longtousi Pier," which are also crowded with individuals waiting to board or disembark other vessels.
