Take advantage of the ginkgo season to check in at Qingyang Palace in Chengdu. The combination of red walls and golden leaves is like a natural photo studio📸! Walking this citywalk route feels like traveling back to the flourishing Tang Dynasty～ 📍Qingyang Palace Address: No. 9, West Second Section, First Ring Road, Qingyang District, Chengdu Opening hours: 08:00-17:30 (last entry at 17:20) A fairy-level photo spot! The ginkgo trees in the Taoist temple are over 500 years old. The golden leaves against the vermilion palace walls make every shot a masterpiece. It’s recommended to come between 9-10 AM when the sunlight is the gentlest. Wearing Hanfu for photos will instantly enhance the atmosphere👘 📸Photo tips: 1. Stand under the ginkgo tree and shoot upwards to frame the golden ginkgo leaves with the flying eaves 2. Walk in front of the red wall for candid shots; the fallen leaves lifted by the skirt are stunning 3. Use the incense burner in front of the hall as the foreground for a blend of sharp and blurred effects, adding more artistic conception 🍂Citywalk route: Qingyang Palace → Baihuatan Park → Baihua Alley → Caotang East Road → Du Fu Thatched Cottage At every corner, you can encounter different golden scenes. It’s a 15-minute walk to Huanhuaxi, with many artistic shops along the way to rest and enjoy a cup of coffee☕ 🍁Best viewing period: Mid to late November to early December, when the ginkgo leaves are the most translucent yellow (I happened to visit on a sunny day, and the sunlight filtering through the leaves cast light spots on the ground, breathtakingly beautiful!) Outfit color tips: Against the backdrop of red walls and golden leaves, Hanfu is recommended in light or matching colors. For modern outfits, try off-white or camel coats for a super textured look～ Kind reminder: Remember to wear comfortable flat shoes! The ground in Qingyang Palace is paved with stone slabs, and you’ll walk quite a bit through the entire ginkgo viewing area.

Chengdu 2 Days 1 Night eSports Fans Rejoice! 5070 Graphics Card for Gaming + Oxygen Boost at Dujiangyan, Enjoy Eating, Playing, and Exploring Without Missing a Beat🌿 As an "amateur but fun-loving" eSports travel group, this time we discovered a treasure in Chengdu — staying at a hardcore eSports hotel on Chunxi Road, spending the day at Dujiangyan for fresh oxygen and lung cleansing, and gaming in teams until dawn at night. In just 2 days and 1 night, we perfectly combined "relaxation" and "joy," with a cost-performance ratio maxed out at just over 700 RMB per person! 🖥️ Gaming Base: Chunxi Road eSports Hotel is Legendary The setup is seriously competitive! We booked a four-person room equipped with a 5070 graphics card, running "Naraka: Bladepoint" at max settings with a silky smooth 144 FPS combo, featuring a Zowie 240Hz high-refresh-rate monitor and Cherry red switch keyboard. The feel was so perfect that teammates kept saying, "Better to upgrade equipment than change hotels."

Pop Mart is seriously a global sensation—everyone is loving it right now! If you’re a fan of cute collectibles and that trendy designer toy vibe, you absolutely have to swing by Pop Mart when you’re in Chengdu, China. Location drop: The shop is conveniently located right in downtown Chengdu. (Pro tip: search for the nearest Pop Mart store on trip.com for exact address and opening hours so you don’t miss out!) When I visited, it was cloudy and rainy outside, which made the indoor vibes at Pop Mart even cozier. One of the highlights was definitely the cartoon monkey statue chillin’ indoors on a sleek wooden tabletop with a gray floor backdrop—perfect spot for a fun photo op! 📸🐒 The shop is designed with all the cool touches of Chinese contemporary architecture, plus little details for collectors and visitors to drool over. Whether you’re looking for blind box toys, limited edition figures, or just wanna get your hands on the latest Pop Mart drops, this is THE spot to be.

✈️ Let's say you have a long layover in Chengdu. I recommend exiting the airport and heading into the city. How to get to the city: 🚈 You can get to the city by metro; the journey to the center takes about an hour. Use the MetroMan app to plan your route. 🚔 If you arrive before the metro is running, I recommend booking a transfer in advance through Trip.com. It's reliable and convenient—a driver will meet you with a sign in the arrivals area, escort you to the car, and take you to your destination. Where to stay: 🏠You can stay in the city center near a park or closer to the zoo if you want to see pandas. 🗺️ For navigation in the city and throughout China, I recommend using Amap. You can add places to your favorites, search for information and reviews, and it works more accurately than the usual Google Maps and Yandex. What to see: 📍People's Park A beautiful park with lots of activities, where you can enjoy music and relax. 📍Tianfu Square The city center, surrounded by high-rise buildings and fountains, allows you to feel the city's bustle. 📍Kuan and Zhai Alleys Old houses, shops, and Chinese food make for beautiful photos. Stroll along the surrounding streets as well. 📍Du Fu Memorial Museum 📍Gudashengci Temple 📍Dongmen Bridge A very beautiful bridge, great photos. 📍Anshan Bridge Also a beautiful bridge. 📍Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding A wonderful place to observe a large number of pandas. #chengdu #Transfer #Trip #Metroman #Transfer #Transit #China #City #Travel
