First of all, if you have younger kids, there's a push trolley you can hire which will make the visit much more pleasant as a family. It's about ¥5/30min but only WeChat pay. Pay for a guide if you're lucky enough to find one inside the park. They can help with the WeChat pay (you can reimburse them with Ali pay or cash) if you don't have access to WeChat pay yourself. The park itself is beautiful and well kept. We haven't had to use any of the facilities so can't comment on them. Drink vending machines and toilets are available all over the park. The terrain is a bit hilly so there are many steps to climb, but where possible there are smooth roads/footpaths for wheeled vehicles/ scooters/prams. Pandas are more active during early morning or around early afternoon feeding times, so be mindful during your visit so you can maximise your chances of great panda photos. Staff are really helpful and make sure you bring your passport /photo id for entry.
It was nice to see Huahua, although I only saw her profile and back, not her face. Her back really looked like a glutinous rice dumpling! Oh, yes, a panda ran up to me and sat down, haha! The garden is really big, 10,000+ meters on foot

Sanxingdui is definitely worth a visit, and the explanation is very important, otherwise you will just be blindly looking at it. This time the big-name explanation is Kaige, very professional, and there will be some related small stories, which makes it easier to understand. Thumbs up.
#SanxingduiMuseum
Slumbering for thousands of years, it awakens to shock the world.
The entire museum, its design, layout, service, and cleanliness are excellent.
Food is available on site.
The Sanxingdui VR experience is a must-try; it's truly fascinating.

Du Fu Thatched Cottage, a cultural landmark embodying the poet's spirit, offers captivating highlights but also requires careful consideration. This was Du Fu's residence during his exile in Chengdu. Inside, precious manuscripts of his poems and cultural relics are displayed alongside the rustic, white-tiled buildings and winding gardens. The red walls and bamboo groves evoke a sense of history, allowing literature enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the poetic spirit of the Tang Dynasty and creating a captivating photo opportunity. Centrally located, with direct bus and subway access, it's a convenient destination. However, be aware that some tour guides may read from scripts and offer incomplete information. For a deeper understanding of history, it's recommended to research in advance. The lush greenery in the park can be infested with mosquitoes in the summer, so be sure to bring mosquito repellent. Weekends and holidays are crowded with tourists, which can detract from your visit. If time permits, visiting on a weekday will be more enjoyable.
It exceeded my expectations. I originally thought it was just a thatched cottage, but in 2024, the Li Du Hall was newly opened. It has the intersecting stories of Li Bai and Du Fu, as well as the chronology of famous Tang Dynasty poets displayed in the form of rulers. The museum has good greenery, many inscriptions and calligraphy, and rich cultural landscapes.

A must-see when visiting Chongqing is the Chongqing Zoo. It's completely different from your typical zoo; it's a comprehensive park: part park, part amusement park, and part zoo. The environment is fantastic, perfect for a stroll or a few boxing sessions. Interacting with all sorts of adorable animals during a stroll is a truly delightful experience.
To be honest, the zoo ticket is really worth it. There are so many animals in it, which is very suitable for children to play. Next time I come to Chongqing, I will definitely bring my children with me.

"Nature is the greatest healer,
All things nourish each other..."
Dense forests,
The fragrance of the mountains,
The rustling wind,
Mixed with the unique fragrance of August osmanthus,
The flowing stream,
Carrying falling leaves far away,
The sporadic rain,
Bringing the unique refreshing coolness of autumn~
It's been a long time since I last saw Gungun.
We just happened to catch his lunch (around 1:30 PM) [Victory]
Even the pandas 🐼 know to eat their main meal—bamboo shoots—first,
and then their snacks—pumpkin and apples. How sweet!
The crisp crunch of this national treasure eating is so moving.
He ate with such relish!
We set off in the early morning, enveloped in a cool, drizzling rain. Our chartered car journeyed along the wet mountain road, the mist tinting the distant trees a hazy green.
The rain had just subsided when we arrived at Panda Valley. Furry red pandas curled up on tree branches, like balls of orange fur, occasionally rubbing their faces with their paws. Giant pandas munched on wooden racks, their dark eyes brimming with naivete. The rain dampened the bamboo leaves, but it didn't disturb the little creatures' leisurely pace, adding a refreshing and pleasant touch to this morning's journey.

It was absolutely stunning! The Sichuan Opera face-changing performance alone was worth the price of admission. The 70-minute program was tightly paced, and the instructors' performances were solid. Every single number was captivating, especially the finale: the fire-breathing and Sichuan Opera face-changing performances. It absolutely rocked the house, drawing constant applause! Some of the performances even had interactive segments, which added a lot of emotional value. It was fantastic!
The whole show is amazing. Its the best i have seen. Must watch. Even if you already watched elsewhere. You got to give it a chance to view. The content is superb.

This is a large, comprehensive museum that is open to the public free of charge. It is located next to Tianfu Square in the center of Chengdu. It has convenient transportation, numerous exhibition rooms, rich collections, detailed explanations, and a full range of service facilities.
The Chengdu Museum is still worth a visit. It helps to understand the history of Chengdu. The teacher explained it in detail for 3 hours without a break. Fortunately, I found a teacher, otherwise it would be too late to see it by myself.

Overall, the experience is good. The first floor mainly displays natural mineral resources, the second floor displays the steps and life of Sichuan dinosaurs, and the third and fourth floors have various animal specimens. It is a good choice to take children to science popularization.
It's definitely worth a visit! I like the dinosaur fossil and mineral exhibition halls the most. The other animal models are also very lifelike, and the plush cultural products in the hall are so cute!
