[2025 Leshan Attraction] Travel Guide for Suji Ancient Town (Updated May)

#Mainland Travel The ancient town of Suji was formed around the Sui Dynasty and was originally called Guihuachang. It has a long history of more than 1,400 years. Legend has it that the place got its name from a hermit named Su Ji who lived here. Suji Ancient Town is located between Leshan and Emei, with the Emei River flowing through it. According to historical records, the ancient town of Suji was formed around the Sui Dynasty. In the following generations, it evolved into Suji Fort in the Tang Dynasty, Suji Town in the Song Dynasty, and Suji Shop and Suji Township in the Qing Dynasty. Suji has many historical and cultural legends and stories, and is known as the "Hometown of Dragon Lanterns" and the "Hometown of Calligraphy and Painting". Suji still retains many quaint buildings, as well as numerous local specialties that are delicious and affordable, famous all over the place. Among them, the "Qiaojiao Beef" is world-famous! ! The Qiaojiao Beef Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum is located in a Qing Dynasty courtyard on Yangmatou Street in Suji Ancient Town, with an exhibition area of ​​about 1,000 square meters. Stepping into the Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum is like walking into the world of cross-legged beef! ! Suji Ancient Town is worth a visit.

Hey everyone! As a travel enthusiast who considers Leshan my "second hometown", I've visited 5 times and finally mastered how to explore this city! Today I'm sharing my insider tips with you - follow this guide to save money and avoid tourist traps! Save this now~ 💥 🚄[Transportation: What's the Most Convenient Way to Get There?] Strongly recommend taking the high-speed rail! It only takes about an hour from Chengdu to Leshan, with tickets around CNY 50+ 🚅. From the station, take a taxi to downtown - it's only CNY 20 from Leshan Station to Zhanggong Bridge (the food hub - take note!). For those driving, parking in the city center is tight. I recommend parking at shopping malls like Shihao Plaza, which charges a reasonable CNY 6/hour. 🏨[Accommodation: Where's the Best Value?] First choice: near Zhanggong Bridge! All kinds of delicious food are right downstairs, and after enjoying street food at night, you can walk back to your hotel in minutes 🛏️. If budget allows, I recommend Atour or Ji Hotel - clean and comfortable. For students, chain budget hotels are great value at CNY 100-200 per night! If you want to experience the ancient town atmosphere, there are several boutique guesthouses in Suji Town, with views of bridges and streams, plus you can enjoy authentic Qiaojiao Beef for breakfast 🍜. 🍢[Food: Follow the Locals for the Best Eats!] Leshan is a "carb paradise"! Here are my must-try picks 👇 🌟Qiaojiao Beef A must-eat in Leshan! The broth is incredibly flavorful - try "Fangfang Qiaojiao Beef". The beef slices are tender and well-seasoned, amazing with the dipping sauce. Don't forget to order the crispy spicy intestines - perfect with rice! 🥩🔥 🌟Sweet Skin Duck Crispy skin and juicy meat - must get it freshly fried! Choose either "Ji Liu Niang" or "Zhao Duck", both popular spots. Try half a duck and ask for extra sweet sauce when getting takeaway 🍗✨ 🌟Boboji (Spicy Street Skewers) Try both red oil and Sichuan pepper sauce! Skewers are CNY 1-2 each at "Gu Zhen Ji". Must-tries: chicken feet, liver, and tripe. Finish with some noodles in the soup - absolutely delicious! 🍢🍜 🌟Other Hidden Gems Try the tofu pudding with crispy pork and seaweed 🍥; Ye'er Ba with both savory meat and sweet sesame fillings. Don't miss the egg pancakes, fried skewers, and grass jelly dessert... Save room for these treats! 💥 📸[Attractions: Beyond the Giant Buddha, These Spots Are Instagram-worthy!] ✨Leshan Giant Buddha Must-visit! But don't waste time queuing to climb up. Two recommended ways to visit: 1. Boat tour: Take a boat from Wuyou Temple Dock - 20-minute ride for up-close views of the Buddha. Great photos from the bow - wear bright colors! 🚤 2. View from the foot: Enter through the main entrance, follow signs to the Nine Curves Plank Road (go early to avoid crowds). Amazing views looking up at the Buddha from halfway up! 📸 ✨Suji Ancient Town Less crowded than downtown, with stone paths and old houses full of local charm. Walk along the river, watch locals drinking tea and chatting, stop at an old restaurant for Qiaojiao Beef - pure bliss! 🌿 ✨Shangzhongshun District New Instagram hotspot! Blue and white buildings with riverside corridors - perfect for Japanese-style photos. Even more romantic at night with lights on. Great for coffee breaks with friends ☕ 💡[Tips to Avoid Tourist Traps] 1. Avoid "special snacks" at tourist sites - overpriced and not tasty. Follow local crowds for authentic food. 2. Don't buy "Buddha blessing souvenirs" - total scam! 3. Extremely crowded on weekends and holidays. Visit during off-peak times - best experience before 9 AM. 🌿Leshan is truly a city you'll never want to leave! Endless delicious food, beautiful scenery, and super friendly locals.

Hey friends👋 As a foodie who loves to travel, Leshan is truly a gem💎 in my heart. I'm back with a meticulously crafted, super-detailed travel guide. Without further ado, let's get to the good stuff👇 Pre-Trip Preparations 🎈Documents: ID card, a small amount of cash (though mobile payments are widely accepted, it's always good to be prepared). 🎈Clothing: Pack appropriate clothing according to the season. Leshan summers are quite hot🌞, so remember to bring light, breathable summer clothes and a sun-protective jacket. Winters aren't too cold, but a warm coat is still recommended. 🎈Toiletries: Toiletries, skincare products, cosmetics, sunscreen, sunglasses🕶️, etc. Pack whatever makes you comfortable. Transportation Guide ✈️ Airplane: Leshan doesn't have its own airport. You can fly to Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport or Chengdu Tianfu International Airport and then take the high-speed train to Leshan. The train ride takes about 40–50 minutes and is very convenient🚄. 🚄 High-speed Train: Take the train directly to Leshan Station. As soon as you get off, you'll feel one step closer to all the delicious food🤤. The signs inside the station are very clear, just follow them to exit the station easily. 🚗 Local Transportation: I highly recommend taking a taxi or riding a shared bike. Taxis are relatively affordable, and shared bikes allow you to stop and enjoy the scenery along the way. Leshan is not a big city, and many attractions and food streets are within easy reach. It's super relaxing to explore by bike🚲. Accommodation Recommendations 🏠 I recommend staying in the Shizhong District, which is close to various food streets and attractions, making it convenient to get around. For example, near Zhanggongqiao, you can go directly to eat delicious food in the evening, and after eating, walk a few steps back to the hotel to rest. It couldn't be better. The prices are also quite reasonable, with plenty of cost-effective hotels and guesthouses to choose from. Book online in advance to find great deals😁. Must-Try Food 🍗 Sweet-Skinned Duck: You must try it fresh out of the oven! The skin is crispy and caramelized, and the duck meat is tender and juicy. One bite, and you'll be hooked. I always buy half a duck every time I go, eating it as I walk around. I just can't stop. Recommended shops: Zhao Duck, Ji Liu Niang Sweet-Skinned Duck🦆. 🥘 Qiaojiao Beef: The beef is cooked just right, tender and smooth. The soup base is made from beef bones and is incredibly flavorful. You can pair it with a dry dip or dipping sauce, and order a vegetable platter for a nutritious and delicious meal. You can eat your fill for CNY 30–50 per person. Recommended shop: Feng Si Niang Qiaojiao Beef. 🍢 Bobo Chicken: Various skewers soaked in chili oil, just looking at it makes your mouth water. Chicken, chicken gizzards, tripe, vegetables…take whatever you want. Each skewer is coated in rich, spicy, and savory broth. It's so delicious you won't be able to stop. The price is also very reasonable, calculated by the skewer, at CNY 20–30 per person. Recommended shop: Ye Popo Bobo Chicken. 🧠 Tofu Pudding: A Leshan specialty snack with a delicate texture that melts in your mouth. It's topped with crispy fried pork, crushed peanuts, deep-fried dough sticks, and other seasonings. Mix it all up before eating, and every bite is super satisfying. Have a bowl for breakfast to start your day full of energy. Recommended shop: Jiu Jiu Tofu Pudding. 🍧 Ice Jelly: A must-have antidote for spicy food! The ice jelly is crystal clear, served with brown sugar syrup, glutinous rice cakes, crushed peanuts, fruit, and other toppings. It's cool, refreshing, and sweet but not greasy. A bite of ice jelly followed by a bite of spicy food is the perfect combination. Recommended shop: Chuan Mei Fancy Ice Jelly. Travel Itinerary Day 1: Leshan Station → Hotel (drop off luggage) → Zhanggongqiao Food Street (sweet-skinned duck, ice jelly, and other snacks) → Jiazhou Scroll · Tianjie (go at night for the stunning night view and a view of the Min River)🌃. Day 2: Qiaojiao Beef for breakfast → Suji Ancient Town (explore the ancient town and try the local specialties) → Bobo Chicken back in the city center for dinner. Day 3: Tofu Pudding for breakfast → Explore Leshan city center, discover hidden streets and food → Prepare for departure. Leshan is truly a fantastic place to visit, with delicious food, beautiful scenery, and a relaxed pace of life. Pack your bags and head out now💪!

1️⃣Grandma Ju: A dessert 🍨 cold drink shop that specializes in shaved ice. I saw many people recommending it before I came here. There were not many people in the shop. I ordered a serving of Matcha shaved ice. The production process is very simple (take out a large piece of Matcha ice cubes from the freezer and put it into the machine to make shaved ice, then add small glutinous rice balls and highland barley popping beads). I thought it was a food that would be a failure due to simple machine processing, but I didn’t expect it to taste good. There was no ice chips at all, and the matcha flavor was super rich. The bitter matcha had a sweet aftertaste, and it was dense and cool in the mouth. - 2️⃣ Brown sugar cookies: There are several stalls selling brown sugar cakes in the whole ancient town. They are baked in an oven. The crust is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Once you break it open, you can feel the hot brown sugar filling. - 3️⃣ Dried tofu: There are dried tofu shops everywhere, some sell spicy and oily flavors, while others sell the original flavor. We were not too interested and did not try any of them, so we will not comment on them. - 4️⃣ Eat Jiuxiang tofu pudding: The tofu pudding here is different from that in Chongqing. It is a combination of tofu pudding, oil tea, and spicy soup, which is quite distinctive. The ingredients are also very rich, including crushed peanuts, vermicelli, pickled mustard tuber, tofu pudding, and chopped green onions. The soup is like the thick paste of spicy soup, and you can add chili oil to make it salty. - 5️⃣Rice Krispie Candy: It is also a major feature. Many shops are making it and the flavors are very rich, but the original flavor best reflects the craftsmanship. - 6️⃣Carbon biscuits: I ordered a beef and pork intestines bun. There are many small steamers in the ancient town, which are cute. Each steamer contains a few pieces of steamed beef and pork intestines. They are wrapped and eaten immediately. The buns are heated, cut, and the meat seasoned with herbs, green onions and peppers is added. It tastes fragrant and glutinous, very good. - 7️⃣Wang Ji Siew Mai: I accidentally discovered a corner paper-wrapped siomai shop, which is clean and hygienic. There are three flavors: mushroom, crab roe, and fresh meat. The thin siomai skin has green onions added to each meat. It is very fragrant when dipped in chili oil. It is similar to the combination of dumplings and wontons.

As the birthplace of Qiaojiao Beef, Suji Ancient Town has become increasingly popular in recent years, especially during the Spring Festival, when crowds of people flock to it. But that doesn’t stop me from liking it. After all, there are my favorite foods there, so it’s worth it no matter how crowded it is. The hustle and bustle is the real “flavor of life”! After dinner, you can take a walk in the ancient town, drink tea, row a boat, and steal a day of leisure. It's really happy like a fairy~ 📍Detailed address: Suji Ancient Town, Shizhong District, Leshan City, Sichuan Province ❤Recommendation reason: 1️⃣ The birthplace of Qiaojiao Beef, there are many Qiaojiao Beef restaurants to check in 2️⃣There is also the intangible cultural heritage Linjiang eel shreds 3️⃣ Various snacks are available 4️⃣Go when the weather is good, sit by the river, bask in the sun and drink tea, it's quite relaxing 📝Note tips: Drinking tea by the river. The riverside seats are limited, so go early and get in early. [Grin] You can go to Leshan Giant Buddha first, then come to Suji. It is not far away, so it is a good day trip.

I planned my long-awaited trip to Leshan as the last stop of my trip to western Sichuan! Suji Ancient Town ☞ the birthplace of Qiaojiao beef, with a history of over 1,400 years. In 2021, it was named a "Suji Qiaojiao Beef Specialty Town" by the People's Government of Sichuan Province. The main ingredient of Qiaojiao beef is also the culture of Suji Ancient Town, which is a town that fully presents the historical and cultural characteristics of "Qiaojiao beef." It's not an exaggeration to arrange the first meal in Leshan here. But there was a real problem with the choice, there were too many Qiaojiao beef restaurants, how could I choose? So experience told me, "You can't go wrong if you go to a crowded place 💃😃😃😃." The Qiaojiao beef restaurant I went to was very large, and the words "intangible cultural heritage" were particularly eye-catching. The waiters were very enthusiastic. In addition to Qiaojiao beef as the signature dish, many authentic Leshan delicacies can be arranged here. This is also one of the reasons for choosing their restaurant. Qiaojiao beef 🥩: To be honest, the signature dish didn't feel particularly special, the beef was very fresh, the soup was very delicious, and there was a lot of cilantro. You must dip it in the dry seasoning to experience the true essence of Qiaojiao beef. Sister Yang's shredded eel 🐍: The shredded eel is cut into strips as thick as shredded potatoes, and a portion is about 350–400 g. The shredded eel is crispy and tender, and you can taste the freshness. Maybe the taste is not much different from Chongqing cuisine, it was not as amazing as I imagined. Sweet-skinned duck 🐥: Maybe my expectations were too high, I was a little disappointed. The duck skin was not too sweet, but the taste was good and very fragrant. The meat was too thick, and it tasted a bit like goose meat. Personally, I still prefer duck meat with less skin and a sweeter taste. I didn't expect that besides these three signature dishes, their other Sichuan dishes were actually quite good. ♧ Old beef tendon ♧ Boiled beef tongue ♧ Tender and smooth ♧ All very distinctive. Highly recommend ♧ Steamed beef with rice flour, delicious! I ordered two portions 💯💯💯!

In the last half day of my stay in Leshan, I decided to take a trip to Suji Ancient Town, which had mixed reviews online. You can travel as you please🧳 Commercialization is indeed the norm in ancient towns everywhere. Suji Ancient Town, which is cool in the morning, is worth a stop and a walk to feel the original rhythm of life in this ancient town. The maids gathered together to play cards, and gathered shirtless in the teahouse to drink tea and chat. There are also the silver-haired grandparents sitting at the door watching the fireworks in the ancient town... If you are like me and like to bring a camera with you📷to freeze certain moments when traveling lazily, you can spend half a day wandering around Suji Ancient Town in Leshan, locating these four stores in order, and discover along the way that this ancient town has not been commercialized some moments 👟Route: Xu Liang Gao-Satisfaction Ceramics-Tangli Coffee🍐-Xiaoyang Jijiao Beef 1⃣️Xu Liang Gao Address: No. 158, Duihechang Street, Shizhong District Business hours:09:00-21:00 Start your day with a bowl of 💰3.5 cold cake. The cold cake is made from pure natural rice and has no other additives. It is paired with sufficient and thick caster brown sugar. It has a dense texture and at the same time you can eat the fine particles after the brown sugar has been casted. It is recommended to stir the cold cake into small pieces and mix well with the brown sugar. Every bite will be delicious. 2⃣️Satisfied Ceramics Shop Address: 🧭 Navigate to Guxiang City·Leshan Courtyard Business hours:10:00-18:00 I personally like visiting ceramics shops. This ceramics shop is hidden in an old house in Suji Ancient Town. The traces of time in the old house match the ceramics unexpectedly. The store owner’s control over details can be seen in every frame of the picture. , I think it’s a healing shop worth stopping in the ancient town. 3⃣️Tangli Coffee🍐 Address: No. 19, Back Street, Suji Town, Shizhong District Business hours:10:30-18:00 Just a few steps away from the Satisfied Ceramics Shop, you can see the Tangli Coffee Shop. It’s almost noon, so I just want to stop for a cup of coffee in Tangli to avoid the blazing sun and avoid the crowds at lunchtime. Tangli is a renovated old house with a wooden structure that is hundreds of years old. You can still hear the creaking sound when you go up to the second floor from the wooden stairs. It is a very good coffee shop for a break. 4⃣️Xiao Yang Qiao Beef Address: No. 90, Dustpan Street, Shizhong District Business hours:08:00-15:30 When the sun has a little lessened its rays and the flow of people during the meal gradually recedes, you can go out to look for food. Suji Ancient Town is the birthplace of cross-legged beef. If you come to Suji, you must have a meal of cross-legged beef. I chose Xiao Yang because his family can serve it in a small bowl instead of a pot. It is not too friendly to a one-person traveler. The ingredients are passed through After boiling a pot of ancestral soup on the stove, it is dipped in salty, spicy and dry-flavored dipping sauce. Although it is not amazing, it is very comfortable. After avoiding the crowds, Suji Ancient Town is perfect for wandering around slowly...

Leshan famous hostel recommends this one because it has been to Leshan a hundred times. Leshan famous hostel found a super cost-effective one ~ Location: Leshan Wanda Apartment A famous hostel that can accommodate 3 people, 100 ten is worth it, I recommend it to everyone! This famous hostel is actually very large, and some of the photos cannot be taken with the mobile phone. It is also very clean. The landlady is a designer and she is very gentle~ It feels like home. If it is a family with two children, the single bed can squeeze two people as shown in Figure 56. It is a perfect solution for a family of 4. It is a three-minute walk to Wanda Snack Street, which is full of Leshan food, shopping, entertainment, and food.

It has independent living space and is close to each other. It is very cost-effective.

Compared to going to some commercial districts, I prefer to visit some ancient towns to experience the slow pace of life, understand the local customs, and enjoy the atmosphere of life that the city lacks. I recently went to Suoji Ancient Town during an off-peak period, and it felt quite nice. Compared to other ancient towns, it is not so commercialized and retains a lot of its original ecology, making it very worth visiting. The pace of life in the ancient town is quite slow, especially when going to the market and residential areas, where the atmosphere of life is very strong, and the locals are very simple and enthusiastic, making it a great place. 🚘Transportation Strategy 🚌Bus: Bus lines 3, 9, 12 reach Suoji Ancient Town 🚗Self-driving: Navigate to Suoji Ancient Town, parking is free 🚕Taxi: About 12km from Leshan City to Suoji Ancient Town, half an hour by car, taxi fare around 30 🎫Ticket: Free ⭐Recommended Tour Route 1️⃣Drinking tea by the river It's very pleasant to sit by the river, drink tea, and enjoy the scenery. There are also places for chess and card entertainment by the river, where you can invite a few friends to play. There are also tour boats on the river, where you can take a boat to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the ancient town. 2️⃣Stroll through the ancient town market There are many stalls selling local handicrafts in the ancient town, which feel very nice. Especially a grocery store, the items inside are quite exquisite 3️⃣The grocery store under the roof The location is not easy to find, we navigated there, and there are many cute little things inside. It's suitable for taking photos and checking in outside, quite artistic~ 4️⃣Enjoy the food ✔️Siniang Ka Bing🫓 Different from the usual Ka Bing, it contains a lot of small ingredients, and the taste is very good, worthy of being a shop that requires almost 1 hour of queuing. It is recommended not to go on weekends, as there are super many people in line. However, the boss lady is super enthusiastic ✔️Chuan Mei Fancy Bingfen🍧 I heard a recommendation from a friend before, ordered a 'Mother-in-law Bingfen', and really liked the glutinous rice cake and handmade brown sugar inside, not too sweet or greasy ✔️Ji Liuniang Sweet Skin Duck🦆 This shop is quite famous for sweet skin duck in Leshan, and it has opened a branch in Suoji Ancient Town, with quite a few people queuing up. My friend particularly likes it. ✔️Freshly Made Brown Sugar Cake There are many people queuing up for the brown sugar cake opposite the Xin Qiao Primary School, and my friend bought one. The freshly made brown sugar cake will burst, be careful of scalding. My friend took a bite and accidentally burned his mouth😹 ✔️Ancient Market Tiao Jiao Beef🐮 Tiao Jiao Beef is one of the major specialties of Suoji Ancient Town, and it seems that every street in the ancient town has it. We were mainly attracted by its antique decoration, and the taste should be similar to other shops. ✔️Yingzi Fried Skewers🍢 This is also an internet-famous fried skewer shop. A new branch has opened in the ancient town, and the taste is very good, suitable for friends who like spicy food and like to eat skewers. Overall, it was a nice trip😊 📝Note tips: ✅1、Strongly recommend trying the Tiao Jiao Beef🐂 here, after all, this is the birthplace of Tiao Jiao Beef!! 2、The ancient town is actually not too big, and it takes only a little while to walk around, just on both sides of the river, and the prices are not expensive.

Grab the detailed guide quickly! 🏞️ 🚄 From Chengdu East Station to Leshan Station There are many trains available every day, we chose the one around 7 am, and it takes about an hour to get to Leshan. The first stop📍 Zhanggong Bridge That place is a very popular food street, we chose a tofu pudding 🧠 shop with lots of people, which started our day's journey. After eating and drinking, we began to check in 📷 Di Baba's deep-fried food is also there, you can go check it out! 📍 Zhongheng Ferry Terminal Not far from Zhanggong Bridge, we checked in at the landmark of Leshan, where you can also see the Leshan Giant Buddha, and the yacht 🚢 bridge hole is also very photogenic. If you have time, you can also go check in at the Leshan Giant Buddha. 📍 Pigeon House🕊️ Navigate to Leshan Square right next to it, super photogenic, we bought 2 yuan 💰 for feeding pigeons and took lots of photos with friends. There is a European-style building 🏯, just be careful of the pigeon droppings 💩. 📍 Jiaxing Road Food Street We first bought Zhao Duck's sweet-skin duck🦆, highly recommended for its delicious taste, then went to the very popular Feng Si Niang's beef with a good taste, and in the afternoon we checked in at Ju Po Po's cotton ice 🧊 with many flavors, very delicious 😋 📍 Zhongsu Jigu Town The ancient town also has many delicious and fun places, we found a teahouse by the river to drink tea and play cards🍵, leisurely spending the afternoon! 📍 Shi Hao Plaza Found a fried skewer shop🍗 that did not disappoint, tastier than other popular places, and affordable.

Leshan's snacks are famous nationwide, and as an ancient town near Leshan city, Suqi is also "extremely delicious". During the May Day holiday, it's incredibly crowded here. To be honest, it's not a great place for taking photos and checking in (perhaps because there are too many people during the holiday), but it's definitely a great place for foodies. This is the birthplace of 'Qiao Jiao' beef, and there are many 'Qiao Jiao' beef shops in the ancient town. In addition, you must try Leshan sweet-skin duck, handmade rice candy, tofu pudding, 'Ka Bing' (also called 'Ka Ka Er', a local snack highly recommended by local friends and super popular among locals, which I, as an outsider, didn't fall in love with), and brown sugar crispy cakes. These delicacies can be seen everywhere in the town, with long queues outside some very popular shops. Moreover, it's very close to Linjiang, and I highly recommend trying Linjiang eel shreds, which have a unique preparation and taste. I went a long way to find a place and it was worth the trip. ⛰【Attraction Guide】 📍Detailed address: No. 12, Banbian Street, Shizhong District, Leshan City, Sichuan Province 🚗Transportation strategy: Self-driving (the ancient town has a parking lot, only 10r for parking over 8 hours) 🕙Opening hours: All day 💰Ticket price: Free 🌟Highlights: Two bridges and one river pattern, super delicious 📌Little Tips: Bring your appetite

☀️Leshan lazy roaming guide☀️ --- Wake up in Leshan, the morning light fills the room, and start a stress-free journey. 🌅 - We chose to travel by car and headed straight to our first destination after getting off the highway. If you arrive by high-speed rail, it is recommended to go to the hotel to drop off your luggage first. - 🏠Accommodation: Shihao Plaza (surrounded by many high-quality B&Bs and hotels) The price/performance ratio and environment here are superb, and it is also very convenient to take a taxi to various scenic spots. 🅿️Parking: There are parking lots in the scenic spots in Leshan, and the parking fee is only RMB 10, which is very economical. 🚖Taxi: The scenic spots in Leshan are very close to each other, and the taxi fare is only RMB 10-20, so there is no need to worry about "taxi assassins". - Day 1️⃣: 📍Shua Wharf - This shopping district is brightly colored, and there are many camping-style bars on the third and fourth floors, which are suitable for taking photos (but leave after taking photos, don't linger). 📍Suji Ancient Town - a paradise for gourmet food! Don't miss the cross-legged beef, steamed beef with rice flour and tofu pudding. I recommend going to Lao Shiqiao (the older one), the taste is really amazing. Take a stroll along the river, enjoy the leisurely and slow life, sit on a chair by the river, drink tea, chat, and feel the tranquility and beauty of the ancient town. 📍Jiaxing Road Food Street - Just go to crowded places, you will definitely not make any mistakes. - Day 2️⃣: 📍Cross-Dock Pier - It is a good place to take photos. There is not much traffic on the riverside, and standing diagonally to take photos can take beautiful photos with a sense of depth. Strolling along the river, you will find many popular places worth checking out. Go explore them yourself~ (The nearby Wushu House is also worth a visit. You can walk there and have a chance to take the same photo as Didi!) 📍Eastern Buddha Capital - There are 33-meter-high sitting Buddha and 55-meter-high standing Buddha here, which are very shocking after visiting! When walking through the woods, remember to spray some floral water to prevent mosquito bites. 📍Leshan Giant Buddha - Touch the head of the Buddha and pray for freedom from worries! After visiting the Oriental Buddhist Capital, you can enter directly from Lianxin Mountain and you will see the ticket office. Then climb up and you will see the breathtaking Leshan Giant Buddha! 📍Zhanggongqiao Food Street - I first tried Diba Fried Duck Shop, which is suitable for taking photos but the taste is average; the sweet duck of Ji Liuniang Sweet Duck Shop is indeed well-deserved, and the price is also very affordable, only RMB 34 per catty. There are many snack stalls on the roadside, and you can choose freely according to your personal preferences! - 🔆Summary: The whole trip was very relaxing and comfortable, and we basically started each day's trip by waking up naturally. The main focus is lazy travel and sleep until you wake up naturally! The main theme of this trip was leisure and delicious food, and it was indeed a very pleasant experience! 🔚 Create an attractive title

Because I stayed up all night on New Year's Eve the day before. So I actually slept all the way to Leshan. It takes about four hours to reach the destination from Chongqing, and there is almost no congestion in the middle. This is my third time to Leshan, and every time I use it as a stopover during my journey. So there are a lot of nooks and crannies worth exploring. Leave it for the next time when you wander around aimlessly or meet by chance. Let’s talk about food first One of Leshan’s “core competitiveness” The dishes we were lucky enough to try and didn’t disappoint were as follows: Sweet-skinned duck - [Zhao Duck] is recognized as the most popular, and you will have to queue up when you go there. The duck is sold in half pieces and can be packed in boxes. The duck meat has the right sweetness and tastes better when eaten hot. I bought the rice candy because it uses xylitol instead of sucrose (a little psychological comfort for people who want to lose weight). The taste is just as good. The millet and nuts are fried to give off a sweet, crispy taste. They are not sticky. As soon as the brown sugar cake is freshly baked, carefully bite it open and suck it. The hot brown sugar will either overflow from the cake or flow down from the corners of your mouth. I randomly chose a shop for shaved ice and ordered the melon flavor. On such a warm afternoon, the fluffy and sweet new shaved ice collides with the tip of your tongue that has just tasted the stir-fried crispy sausage. I can't handle it. Egg cake - Who would have thought that Lao Xie didn't want cream? I think cream is the soul of egg cake! The taste is a little greasy for me Cross-legged Beef - A local friend in Leshan recommended the [Laoshiqiao Cross-legged Beef] in Suji Ancient Town. The dried chili dip was very appetizing with sesame and peanuts. The beef slices were very thin and the soup had a faint herbal flavor. The three of us drank several bowls in a row. Let’s talk about the urban environment Leshan is dotted with squares and parks, and the names of every street are generously displayed. The past and present have been clearly traced, and one can imagine the specific stories that happened from just a few words. My favorite is the riverside road built along the ancient city wall of Jiazhou. The old trees are intertwined and look like old men who have experienced many vicissitudes of life and have been guarding for a hundred years. Next to it is the Dadu River, which rushes forward with its foamy water and finally flows into the Minjiang River, merging with countless "selves". Finally, let’s talk about people’s lives As a famous tourist city, Leshan has a lot of people, but it is not noisy. Perhaps it is the comfortable and warm sunshine shining on people, which makes them no longer obsessed with language output. They drink tea and take a nap, go shopping, stop to enjoy the scenery... People are doing their own things leisurely. I went for a walk in the evening and found that the grandmas and grandpas in Leshan like to exercise very much. Many grandfathers just took off their shirts and did sit-ups on the fitness equipment. The more advanced ones could even do somersaults on the parallel bars. The mothers-in-law also showed off their unique skills, lifting their legs high to stretch their muscles, which made me stunned.

Tiptoe Beef. Every weekend, how many Sichuan A army drive to Leshan, all for the food there; and in Leshan, there are ancient town style and food, it is Suji Ancient Town! Speaking of the delicious food in Suji Ancient Town, Tiptoe Beef is definitely the first choice! Order a pot of hot beef offal soup, with a bowl of blood sausage, a stir-fry, and a cracker, it is the simplest taste satisfaction~ In addition to this, throughout the ancient town, rice candy, peach cake, tofu brain, sweet skin duck, brown sugar cake, black sugar shaved ice, one after another, all attracting every tourist, only hate themselves for not bringing a few more stomachs! Suji Ancient Town, only a little over an hour's drive from Chengdu, let's go on the weekend~~

|Tilted Beef Specialty Town. Suji Ancient Town|Tilted Beef Specialty Town Suji Ancient Town, which was formed around the Sui Dynasty and was originally called Guihua Chang, has a long history of more than 1400 years. It is said to be named after a hidden land named Su Ji, and there is also a saying that 'Su Dongpo has inspected here'. 😂To this day, Suji still retains many ancient buildings, as well as a variety of local specialty foods, delicious and affordable, famous everywhere. Among them, the tilted beef is known to the world, and in 2021, it was rated as 'Suji Tilted Beef Specialty Town'. 🤲There is a 'Tilted Beef Intangible Heritage Museum' in the ancient town, with an exhibition area of about 1000 square meters, located in a Qing Dynasty courtyard on Yang Matou Street. Location: Suji Ancient Town, Leshan City P Parking: 10 yuan Ticket: Free 😂Friends who go to the ancient town can visit the 'Tilted Beef Intangible Heritage Museum', which is air-conditioned, comfortable in temperature, and has various display walls suitable for photo check-ins.

In order to eat the beef, I arrived at Suji Ancient Town early in the morning and rushed directly to Shuai Erwa's beef (recommended by Rourou). I ordered three bowls (tender beef; ox tongue; ox loin). The ox tongue was thin and a little hard, but the tender beef was the most recommended. Then we went to the entrance of Rugong Bridge, where there was a shop selling crispy lasagna with sauce and fresh green onions on top. It was super delicious! Then I went to the market and bought half a sweet-skin duck for 26 yuan per pound, which was exactly one pound, and then found a place to eat a bowl of ice jelly. Finally, I took the cake and duck to the bridge under Suji Avenue and drank a cup of 18 yuan covered bowl green tea. This day was a great enjoyment. Although Suji Ancient Town is not big, the cost is obviously lower than that of general tourist areas. It is recommended to visit it when you come to Leshan.

Leshan Suji Ancient Town is an ancient town with a long history, famous for its traditional water town style and leisurely pace of life. In Leshan Suji Ancient Town, you can enjoy a slow life. Tea culture is also a very important part of Leshan Suji Ancient Town. You can sit in the teahouse and taste a variety of different teas, such as Emei Snow Bud Tea, Bashan Black Tea, etc. Slow down and enjoy a slow life. #Mainland China Attractions
