“A city of slow life but strong charm”

Chengdu is a city that perfectly blends modernity with ancient Chinese culture. Its streets are wide and clean, and its buildings are high-rise. But just turn into a side street and you'll find a small teahouse where elderly Chinese people play Go, sip tea, and chat away, seemingly effortlessly. Highlights that make Chengdu special: • 🐼 Pandas: The panda conservation center is a city icon. Seeing them in person is truly heartwarming, especially when they roll around like dolls. • 🌶️ Sichuanese food: This city is a paradise for spicy food lovers. The numbing mala (spicy hot pot) leaves your mouth numb, and the spicy and fragrant hot pot is addictive, making you want to come back for more. • 🍵 Tea culture: Chengduians love to sit in teahouses. An hour or two passes without realizing it, creating a sense of peace and tranquility. • 🛕 Zhuge Liang Temple (Wuhousi): This gives the city a historical dimension, as if we were walking through the pages of the Three Kingdoms. • 🌿 Nature around the city: Mount Qingcheng and Mount Emei offer fresh air and soothing greenery. Perfect for those who truly need a break. Overall impression of Chengdu: It's a city that doesn't rush you, but rather slowly captivates you. It's perfect for those who want to "rest," not just "travel." You don't need to visit every landmark here. Just sitting in a teahouse and watching people go by will make you feel satisfied. #travelchina #chengdu #travelchengdu
