Fengdu is located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and the geographic center of Chongqing, deep in the Big Three Gorges and backed by the Wulingshan Mountain. In the midst of much attention and common prayers, citizens, tourists and friends gathered there that night, launched a blessing cultural event with unique Fengdu characteristics, and highlighted the cultural and creative brand of Fengdu to create an international cultural IP.
