Which would you choose?
Obviously Chongqing is the much warmer of the two so I choose it. However, I'm curious to see if the excessive cloudiness of Chongqing has any influence in the decision of heat lovers...

Even if Vancouver's climate was abysmal I'd still rather be in Canada than China.

Vancouver hands down. Look at the average lows for July and August in Chongqing: 24.6 and 24.7 C!!! That alone is enough to render that climate miserable, even though it has fairly nice winter temps. Vancouver temps are really nice year-round.

Vancouver . The cloudy climate of Chongqing would suck, even though the temps are nice. Vancouver has the summer temps as here, so part of the year would feel similar.

Vancouver no contest. Chongqing looks vile, whereas Vancouver to me really doesn't look that bad.

Vancouver definitely, It's summers are very similar to Londons though slightly sunnier. Chongqing looks horrible.

Vancouver, no contest. Chongqing looks ghastly, and the air quality is appalling.
