Located east of Chongqing City on the northern bank of the Yangtze, Ghost City was built as the imaginary world of ghosts. As early as two thousand years ago, it was on historic records. At that time, people believed that when men died, they would enter the nether world and become ghosts for whom survivors set up the imaginary constructions. Many classical works and poems refer to those 'organizations'.

The Ghost City's constructions rest primarily on two mountains, the Ming and the Shuanggui. Stepping through the gate of Ghost City on Ming Mountain, visitors will see Yinyang Bridge through which ghosts return to the real world and Yellow Spring Road through which dead people register with the King of Hell. Heading on, they will find a tower with an inscribed board suggesting 'the Gate of Hell' (Guimenguan). Then a cluster of halls appears, including the Grand Hall, Ghost Torturing Bridge, and Jade Emperor Hall.
