2024 Chengdu Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in September)
Chengdu is a city on the rise, one you will want to visit again and again. Chengdu has a long and storied history. It has a unique cuisine with a huge number of hot and spicy dishes, as well as an enviously relaxed pace of life. Historic Jinli’s overpowering sense of enthralling antiquity, adorable giant pandas and avenues full of hotpot restaurants all call out to welcome visitors from near and far. On the outskirts of town, you can find quiet solace in peaceful Qingcheng Mountain or the bucolic ancient town of Anning. It is a vastly different side of Chengdu. Chengdu is also a fashionable city. The nightscape of Jiuyan (the Nine Arched) Bridge and the nearby Kuanzhai Alley truly make people feel the fast-paced pulse of the city.

Chengdu Giant Panda Base｜Huahua, where are you?
Sichuan, a major tourist province, boasts numerous top attractions. Even if you've visited multiple times, there's always more to explore. Spending a month here wouldn't be too much ❤️
🐼 Sichuan has a total of four panda bases. The most well-known is the Chengdu Base, home to the adorable internet celebrity panda, Huahua. There are also bases in Wolong and Dujiangyan. The Chengdu Base is located in the city and is accessible by subway, making it a year-round hotspot for visitors.
🐼 To see the top internet celebrity panda, Huahua, many people wake up early and queue for two hours just to see her for three minutes. Huahua is beloved because of her unique physical features. If you look closely, you'll notice her neck is a bit short, which makes her look incredibly cute ❤️. Even as a young panda, she was different from the others, enjoying posing for photos.
🐼 Besides pandas, the base also has smaller red pandas, which are reddish-brown and look like little raccoons. They are also very cute and highly recommended 👍

In Chengdu!! The only forest park I want to visit countless times!! It's so beautiful that it makes you cry
Today, I am sharing a fun, photogenic, and strollable park in downtown Chengdu, right at the south gate of Chengdu!
With summer approaching, let's go hiking and enjoy the greenery in the forest, feeling the healing power of the lush green scenery, and breathe in the fresh air together! And this park is a secret forest park that can be easily reached within the city of Chengdu~
-
There is a huge green lawn, a forest boardwalk, and a lake surrounded by the forest, with irises blooming by the lakeside. In this season, walking on the forest boardwalk, surrounded by greenery, is truly mesmerizing!
▪️Location: Yong'an Lake Forest Park
▪️Transportation: Metro Line 5, Huilong Station, Exit H2, 10 min by taxi
▪️Tickets: Free, but no pets allowed
🌳Location of the first photo:
The photographer stands on the orange Dawei Bridge and can immediately see the vast green lawn! There is a small path in the middle of the lawn, running freely on it feels so refreshing, and under the sunlight, it feels like being in New Zealand, dreamy and fantastic.
🌳Location of the second photo:
There is a parking lot in the forest. Walk along the small path on the left to the end, and you will see a long boardwalk on the right. Walking down the slope, you will see tall pine trees all the way, creating a magical illusion of a twilight forest under the interplay of light and shadow!
🌳Yong'an Lake Forest Park is very large. Walking along the forest paths, there is a 470-meter-long scenic bridge corridor over the lake. Standing on the bridge, you can see a large expanse of the lake, and following the greenway deep into the original pine forest, I call it the most beautiful forest park in Chengdu!
🌳Some tips:
❶It is recommended to visit around 18:00, the light at this time is just right, very soft, and the photos taken are super beautiful, and it won't be too sunny!

Staying in a homestay while watching pandas in Chengdu is already Next level
Where to take the kids during the summer vacation? How to take the kids out without tiring the mom?
The answer in summer is naturally to stay in a homestay or hotel with the kids!
No sunburns, kids have fun, and parents can relax!
It seems like loving pandas is a natural instinct for children, and they want to own everything related to pandas! So, upon hearing that there is a panda-themed homestay in Xindu, we rushed to check it out!
After getting off the car and walking into the yard, you can see a cute tree-climbing panda 🐼. Then, in the yard, the lobby, and the rooms, the panda elements everywhere surprise the kids continuously!
The entire homestay design perfectly integrates art and nature, using the scenery to create more scenery, with bamboo forests, bamboo weaving, indoors, and outdoors, every step is a view! When the sunlight shines down, the light and shadow are really healing! No wonder it was personally designed and built by the owner who is an artist!
The 2000-square-meter space has only five rooms, and the one-on-one attentive service from the butler makes this trip's experience full! The craftsmanship spirit is truly commendable! The homestay also has a Starbucks countryside service point and a large library for recharging. Outside, the lawn allows kids to run and play freely, and if you wish, catching fish, netting shrimp, and enjoying lotus flowers are also possible!
🌟 Guests staying at their homestay also enjoy pick-up/drop-off services
Shuangliu Airport/Chengdu East Railway Station/Giant Panda Base/Wide and Narrow Alleys/Jinli
/Dongjiao Memory (Guests can choose one of the six places for a free one-way pick-up or drop-off)

I specially went to Chengdu to watch this sunset!!!
To chase that orange sea, I specially stepped into the rain-soaked Rongcheng—Chengdu!
A week of continuous drizzle seemed to be building up for this visual feast. Finally, the sun shyly showed its smile yesterday afternoon, heralding an extraordinary encounter.
🌟【Destination Reveal】Baize Platform (A Dreamland by Xinglong Lake)
Take Metro Line 18, get off at Xinglong Station Exit C2, and then take a warm taxi for just five minutes to reach this hidden sanctuary on the edge of the city. No tickets are needed; a free heart can start this romantic journey.
🌅【Sunset Timetable】
When the time slowly steps into the golden period from 19:00 to 20:00, the sky begins to perform a magic show of colors. But remember, a leisurely walk two hours in advance can make your journey more complete. At 17:00, stroll along the lakeside square of Xinglong Lake, where the water shines like a sapphire, equally refreshing. By 19:00, move to Baize Platform and wait for the best moment when the orange hue gently embraces the sky.
📸【Photography Master’s Spot】
The boardwalk of Baize Platform is the secret weapon for capturing the stunning sunset. Standing on the lush lawn behind, frame the shot with leaves, and aim the lens at the figures running on the boardwalk. The silhouettes and the orange sea complement each other, making every frame a hit on social media. If you can walk with your loved one, this romance will surely become an eternal memory in each other's hearts.
This sunset is not just a visual feast but also a spiritual baptism. In Chengdu, I found my own orange sea. The tranquility and beauty are enough to make me remember for a long time.

Among them, s18k is a double-decker sightseeing bus (it only stops at Yong'an Town midway, fast, spacious, and suitable for children).
Ancient Town Travel Guide:
🚇 Take the metro and bus: After arriving at the passenger center, get off outside the station, and there will be tricycles at the entrance (you can take a ride if you don't want to walk). The distance is not too far, and you can reach the entrance in 10 minutes on foot.
Self-driving: Navigate to Huanglongxi Parking Lot🅿️ (it is recommended to park at the newly built west gate, which is larger and more convenient). There are also private parking lots🅿️ near other entrances, generally 20 yuan per time (the same price for 1 hour or a day, suitable for a leisurely stroll).
No reservation is needed to visit the ancient town, just enter directly. At the entrance, there are some characteristic buildings, very suitable for taking photos and checking in. Walk straight ahead for about 200 meters, and you will reach the dragon head 🐲, the water spray area. Play slowly along the stream, it's cool and pleasant. When the weather is hot, you can prepare for a water fight.
Food in the Scenic Area: Huanglongxi Yigen Noodles (quite characteristic, generally 20 yuan per bowl). The further you go, the cheaper the prices, because the ancient town is very large and deep. The grilled squid, duck intestines, and other skewers along the way are quite affordable and taste good.
Inside the scenic area 🈶 Dicos, KFC, Starbucks (on Shijing Impression Street)
Activities and Performances: There will be performances on holidays and Saturdays, dragon dances, and iron flower performances at night (Xinhuhuo performance, worth seeing. It starts at 7:30 pm in winter and 8 pm in summer).
Ancient Town Buildings: Numerous temples (Chaoyin Temple, Gulong Temple, Wangjiang Temple, etc.)
🔔 Must visit: Fuxing Street (the center of the ancient town, a century-old street), 🈶 a century-old blacksmith shop, and next to it is an old silver shop , Fuxing Old Teahouse (a very characteristic teahouse, a popular check-in spot, 10 yuan per seat, very affordable). The old restaurant on the street [Pearl Tofu Flower is worth eating, if you are lucky, you can see the beans being ground, stone mill tofu flower, eating a bowl is very nice, only 5⃣ yuan per bowl).
Further down: Dongzhai Gate, a drum tower 🉑 you can climb up to overlook the river view (9.9 yuan per person to climb the tower), check in by the river, 🉑 take a boat 🚢 (one hour round trip, speedboat 🚤 (3-5 minutes) (35 yuan per person).
Of course, if you have enough time, you can also visit other streets. The less popular streets have a stronger ancient town atmosphere and are quieter. The night lighting effects have a better atmosphere, offering different scenery.
The Langqiao Bridge is next to the ancient town (about 500 meters straight from the greenway at the side entrance of the scenic area), you can check in and take photos, and it looks even better at night!

I stayed at a hotel with a great view during my business trip
Suddenly I understood why it's called 'Shiye' because the view here is really great.
Chengdu Taikoo Li is so bustling at night.
It's really enjoyable to stay in a hotel on a business trip with expenses covered.
Staying on the 26th floor of the Taikoo Li business district,
Looking down from the window, the night view is beautiful.
It feels like a cyberpunk atmosphere 😂
The little butler is very considerate, always available for check-in and travel.
I really like the dining area here, the facilities are very complete!
I like staying in loft-style rooms, they are cozy, high-end, and spacious.
It's a pity the weather is a bit bad, it's raining outside.
But the fireplace under the TV 🔥 is very cozy.
I took a bath at night, with bath salts and everything.
The Manhattan sound system is great, filling the entire room.
It's another day of not wanting to go to work 😭
In Chengdu!! The only fairytale town I want to visit countless times
So far, my favorite fairytale town, Florentia Village, is really great for photos! European-style buildings, square fountains, and arched corridors... It feels like being in a European town, and you can take great photos anywhere 📷...
Every time I come, I can spend a whole day here. Last time, phases one, two, and three had so many brands!! Many of my favorite brands are here!!
Every time the season changes, I have to go to Florentia Village to shop like crazy! Buying clothes this season is just too cost-effective, I can't stop buying!!

A Must-Drink at Chengdu's Li Shan Shan Tea Shop
When traveling to Chengdu, visiting a popular tea shop is a must, and the Li Shan Shan Tea Shop (Dongjiao Memory Store) located in the Dongjiao Memory is the place to be 🍵✨. This shop is famous for its clay pot brewed tea, drawing in crowds of people. Stepping into Dongjiao Memory, you'll find that it's also a hotspot, with a constant stream of visitors at the door of Li Shan Shan Tea Shop, requiring patience to queue. We tried the shop's recommended specialty teas, including the 'Bipond Snowdrift', a pan-fried green tea paired with the fragrance of jasmine flowers, topped with a layer of cream for added texture. We also ordered a refreshing green tea, rich in flavor and worth the wait. The teas here are definitely worth trying, and the shop's atmosphere is quite comfortable, adding a touch of literary charm to our trip to Chengdu.
