Welcome to Chengdu! To make your Chengdu trip more perfect, I have reorganized the guide. Are you ready to record this wonderful time? Let me plan your itinerary in detail for you! 📸🎉
Day1: After arriving in Chengdu, first go to the Chengdu Museum. However, it should be noted that the Fenghua Wanxiang Pavilion requires an additional 100 yuan for admission, but it is definitely worth a visit! Then you can go to Jinjiang Night Tour to enjoy the city night view. 🌃🌉
Day2: Panda Valley is a must-visit, where you can get close to the cute pandas, and there are relatively few people, which is great! Then you can visit Guanxian Ancient Town, taste authentic snacks, and get good value for money. Finally, go to Dujiangyan, choose a time with less crowd to avoid crowded people, and wait for the blue tears light show at night. 🐼🏞️🌕
Day3: Go to Heming Tea House in the early morning, make an appointment in advance, and enjoy the unique Chengdu tea culture experience. Then visit Wuhou Temple, note that there may be temple fairs recently, and it is connected to Jinli, so pay attention to the tickets. ☕🏯🎊
Day4: Visit Wenshu Monastery or Daci Temple, feel the atmosphere of the ancient temple, and receive free incense. Daci Temple is located near Taikoo Li, where incense is booming. Chengdu has a lot of humanities and customs, the city center is not too crowded, but dining queues require patience. Remember to queue up online in advance to book popular restaurants! 🍜🏛️👨👩👧👦
Finally, I have to strongly recommend Furong Guocui, which is a very authentic Chengdu cuisine, and you must not miss it! Relax and enjoy every wonderful moment, and your trip to Chengdu will leave wonderful memories! 💖🌸

Chengdu three-day two-night free trip, hurry up and copy homework!
Chengdu·Sichuan, this city is irresistible. When you feel tired, you must come to Chengdu once and experience its slow life.
Transportation:
The scenic spots in Chengdu are very concentrated, and there are only a few stations between the subway stations. Moreover, each scenic spot has a bus that can be taken, which is very convenient. If you take the subway or bus, you just need to download an app called 'Tianfu Tong'.
Accommodation:
It is recommended to choose to live near Chunxi Road Taikoo Li, because it is very convenient to go anywhere.
Must-visit attractions:
'Wuhou Temple'
Here is the most beautiful red wall, friends who are obsessed with the Three Kingdoms must not miss it. Whether you take photos casually📷 or play the characters of the Three Kingdoms, this is an excellent background.
'Kuanzhai Alley'
This is an ancient alley that literary and artistic youths must check in. I used to think that Kuanzhai Alley was a street name, until I came to Chengdu to discover that it actually includes a wide alley and a narrow alley. Although there is a strong commercial atmosphere here, it is definitely a good place for sightseeing. Having a cup of coffee☕️ here and spending an afternoon will be a very comfortable experience.
'Jinli'
The night view🌃 is very beautiful at night, as if you have traveled to the scene of the ancient New Year's lantern festival, it is very lively. There are many stages, small bars and resident singers🎤 inside, giving people a unique atmosphere.
'Chunxi Road/Taikoo Li'
This is a gathering place for fashion trendsetters, and there are really many beauties. Be sure to take a photo with the giant panda at ifs🏬.
'Giant Panda Breeding Base/Chengdu Zoo'
It is a good choice for friends who like animals. Although general foreign tourists will choose the panda breeding base, the city zoo is also very good. In addition to the cute pandas🐼, there are many other animals waiting for your exploration.
'Jiuyan Bridge'
A good place for a walk🚶 at night, the night view here is very beautiful, making people feel peaceful. Taking a walk here is a good choice.
'Qingcheng Mountain'
Ticket🎫80/person, cable car🚠 one-way/35 person. Located outside Chengdu city, it takes a whole day to play. This is the famous place where the story of Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian took place, with beautiful scenery. The tour time is not long, about half a day, so you can return to Dujiangyan District to find food.
'Dujiangyan'
Ticket🎫80/person Sightseeing car10/person. This is not only a world-famous water conservancy project, but also a beautiful scenic spot. You can take the 101 bus from Qingcheng Mountain to Lidui Park Station, about an hour's drive.
Must-eat delicacies:
I am very longing for Chengdu's food. However, although we stayed there for a few days, we still didn't eat a lot of delicious food. Recommend Chengdu's hot pot🍲, spicy hot pot, sugar oil fruit/red sugar glutinous rice cake, Chengdu ice powder/tofu pudding and bobo chicken🐔.
Play small tips:
The airport has a direct bus to the city, and you can reach the city center for only 10 yuan.
If you want to taste delicious hot pot🍲, Chengdu's small shops can satisfy your taste, no need to go to expensive big shops.
Chengdu's famous bar street 339 is an excellent choice for drinking🍺.

Jinli Ancient Street
Whenever I go China, I like to visit the ancient street as it allows us to experience the local culture. The street is mixed with ancient and modern atmosphere. Thus, when I was in Chengdu China, I took the chance to go Jinli Ancient Street. Like most ancient streets, there were many nice food and also got the beautiful historical buildings and streets. The highlight for me was that I got to attend a show featuring tea pouring, masks change art etc.

Authentic Chengdu Culture on Jinli Ancient Street
From the moment we entered 231 Wuhouci Avenue, Wuhou, #chengdu, we could feel the Chengdu spirit. My daughters tried on Xifu #costumes and #makeup used in the #pekingopera for only 200 yuan. We got 5 photos in the price. It was amazing to see the finished product 👏😀.
Highlight - The street was lively and calming at the same time . It wasn't too much to make us tired, but just enough to keep us entertained. There were lots of shops work traditional goods and food items to make us enjoy the true Chengdu spirit. The pineapple 🍍 rice 🍚 was my favorite treat. I'll try to make it when I go home.
#hotelstay is convenient. I saw two hotels just outside the gate: The #Jinlan hotel and the #Ruixin hotel.
Price: It's free to entire, but take money to add to your experience. We bought traditional musical instruments and lots of food, and they weren't expensive. You might also want to do the Xifu costume or watch the peking opera with #facechanging act.
Rating - 💯💪. Add it to your bucket 🪣 list 😀

Jinli Street is a popular commercial pedestrian area in Chengdu. It was built in the style of the late Qing and early Republic. This street is characterized by Three Kingdoms culture and Sichuan tradition, and its layout is neat. The areas containing bars and entertainment, Sichuan cuisine and snacks, the mansion house hotel, and unique handicrafts for sale are arranged in a haphazard yet charming manner.
Sakura Lee.
Jinni ancient Street. During my trip I also have visited this walking street. In fact, I'm always visiting walking streets in every city I'm coming. It helps to feel locals.
Here everything is typical for regular walking street. Snacks, gift shops, species, thousand of people, everything is there. Buildings are beautiful, some food is tasty, some food is spicy or has too much oil. Well, can spend about half of an hour there.

Jinli in Chengdu, home to food, art, entertainment, trinkets, and most of all atmosphere. Many artists work away at their crafts, commissioned by onlooking tourists to engrave designs onto jade eggs, cut out client’s silhouettes, and draw their portraits. Food artisans grind sichuan peppers into fresh chilli sauce and pull sugar until it becomes dragon’s beard candy. There’s music and street food and ear cleanings galore.

Zhao Leis "Chengdu" makes you fall in love with this city. Many people travel to Chengdu in two places that must go. One is the wide and narrow alley, the other is Jinli. The former Jinli legend is the history of Xiqiao. One of the oldest and most commercial streets, it was famous all over the country during the Qin and Han Dynasties. Today's Jinli, which is in the middle of the city, is inevitably becoming a very commercial atmosphere. It is more suitable for snacks. However, I want to experience a variety of foods in Chengdu one day, which is very convenient in Jinli. Jinli and Wuhou Temple are separated by a wall. It is the oldest street in Chengdu and a famous commercial pedestrian street in Chengdu. Although there are a lot of tourists, the street in Jinli is very clean. In Jinli, there is always a place where you can dream. Compared with many man-made landscapes of old bottles and new wines in China, Jinli is completely grassroots, native and homely. In Jinli, this street condenses the essence of Chengdu, whether it is a tea house, a restaurant, a hotel, an inn, a bar, or a specialty store. It fully demonstrates the unique charm of the Three Kingdoms culture and the folk customs of Sichuan, compared to Kuanzhai Alley. Jinli is also very worthwhile to go. In general, the snacks on Jinli Street are authentic and affordable. You must not forget to come to Jinli.
Travel master cao.
Jinli is a very traditional antique street in Chengdu. Because it is adjacent to Wuhou Temple, it has a strong flavor of the Three Kingdoms. It is very lively all year round. Whenever you come here, there are bustling crowds of people, the mix of people from outside the country, the smell of Chengdu snacks of various colors, the dazzling array of goods, the image of the Beijing opera dolls of the Three Kingdoms. The street performer who stood at the entrance of the teahouse, all of this in front of him constitutes the shuttle of Jinlis time and space.
Lemon Zhao.
Compared with the artificial landscape of many old bottled new wines in China, Jinli is completely grassroots, local and homely. Some of the items sold in the Jinli Jinli store are chopsticks, tea, lanterns, silk quilts and native products. You can also experience a variety of activities that have been circulated since ancient times.
The people of Chengdu are so relaxed and leisurely strolling around in Jinli, the nostalgic people have the emotion to export, and the people who love to eat satisfy the appetite. Jinli presents a scene of humanity.
Hundreds of wooden doors, thousands of stone roads. Roaming the hometown of Jin Guan, vying for the emblem of the prime minister. Shooting, brocade, inn, gongs, chasing after the ages; embroidery, bamboo, pawn shop, flower sedan
timetrees.
As early as in the Three Kingdoms, Chengdu Jinli has been a civilized part of the country. Today, it is the oldest street in the history of Xiqiao. Unlike other streets I have seen, this street is very different. The most impressive thing about the place is that there is a lot of food here. Many elements of the Three Kingdoms can be seen here. It is the Qingming Shanghe map of Chengdu.

Chengdu Must-Visit | Jinli is probably a dream of the Three Kingdoms era
Jinli is one of Chengdu's cultural calling cards, and 'Paying homage to Wuhou and soaking in Jinli' has become one of the loud slogans for tourism in Chengdu. This place was once one of the older and more commercial streets in the history of Western Shu, famous in China as early as the Qin and Han dynasties, and the Three Kingdoms period. Jinli Ancient Street, the ancient stage, Jiupin Snack Street, Zhuge Well, and the first archway of Western Shu are all well-known.
Recommended check-in spots:
1. Jinli Ancient Street has the typical residential architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasties in Chengdu, consistent with the theme style of Wuhou Shrine's architecture. You can drink a cup of hero's wine, sing a segment of the Three Kingdoms play, and taste a bit of the Three Kingdoms romance. Experience the 'Dream Back to the Three Kingdoms' atmosphere at places like the Wine Boiling Workshop, Adou Well, Zhuge Well, and Wuyi Alley.
2. Ancient Stage: It follows the basic structure of traditional Chinese stages, made of ancient wood that has stood the test of time, with wood carvings based on stories from the Three Kingdoms, exuding a strong sense of historical and cultural atmosphere.
3. Jiupin Snack Street: Jinli's famous tasty street. Nine is the extreme of the yang numbers, and one 'pin' has three 'kou', so Jiupin has twenty-seven 'kou', meaning that on Jinli's Jiupin Street, if you try a little of each snack, even twenty-seven mouths would not be enough. There are delicacies like Zhang Fei Beef, Fatty Intestine Noodles, Cool Cake, Ye'er Ba, Three Big Cannons, Heartbroken Jelly Noodles, Bamboo Leaf Steamed Beef, Beef Crisp Cake, Bobo Chicken, Sugar Oil Fruit, and more.
4. The gate of Zhuge Hut is hung with the inscription 'A pool of clear water reflects the changing world, three visits show deep affection for the true Shu Han', and there is a well in the courtyard, named Zhuge Well.
5. The archway of 'The First Street of Western Shu' serves as the iconic archway of Jinli, marking the boundary between Jinli Phase One and the Waterfront Jinli. The couplet on the archway reads 'Adding splendor to the temple with blooming flowers, standing tall in the marketplace to inherit and magnify the culture'.
6. Huanglongtan is adorned with a small bridge and a pavilion in the middle of the lake, called Fengyi Pavilion, also known as 'Dressing and Throwing the Javelin', from 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'.
7. Folk Memory Wall: Since the opening of Jinli Ancient Street by Wuhou Shrine in 2004, it has taken on the responsibility of inheriting the folk culture of Western Sichuan, showcasing the folk culture of Western Sichuan.

The night view of Jinli has a strong sense of national trend
Visiting Chengdu is not just about seeing pandas and eating hotpot; there are many other great tourist destinations, and even shopping offers plenty of good spots. I particularly like Jinli. Although it is a commercialized old street, it still remains a must-visit spot for Chengdu tourism. It is the oldest and most prosperous street in the history of Western Shu, and there are many delicious Chengdu snacks to enjoy. The photos are beautiful, especially the night view, which exudes the charm of the national trend. How can I, as a tourist from another place, not go there? Jinli Ancient Street

Chengdu is a city I never want to leave while exploring this place. There are strong sense felling its charm and vibrancy. The much-anticipated five-day trip to Chengdu is about to begin, and the excitement and anticipation in my heart are like a volcano about to erupt, ready to burst forth. Chengdu is a city full of stories, its charm and vitality attract me, making me full of longing for this trip.I look forward to exploring every corner of Chengdu in these five days, understanding its history and culture
Chengdu, a marvelous place that blends ancient and modern, tradition and fashion. The moment I arrived in Chengdu, the bustling city atmosphere and leisurely vibe immediately surrounded us. Wandered through the wide and narrow alleys, savoring the charm of old Chengdu; in Jinli Ancient Street, I seemed to travel through time, back to the vibrant Three Kingdoms period. I look forward to visiting historical sites such as Wuhou Shrine and Du Fu Thatched Cottage, feeling the profound cultural heritage of Chengdu. With some interaction with the locals, understanding their way of life and stories.
As night fell, enjoying the hot pot, filled with spicy flavors, amidst continuous laughter and chatter. Every bite of delicious food was the best praise for this trip. I look forward to tasting Chengdu's delicacies, experiencing the unique flavors of Sichuan.
Chengdu, this charming city, with its unique allure, has drawn a perfect conclusion to our vacation. Here, not only relaxed my minds; it was also an unforgettable journey, a precious memory.

Main attractions:
Ancient Stage: The stages are all made of ancient wood, and they are carved with wood carvings based on the stories of the Three Kingdoms, giving a strong sense of historical and cultural atmosphere
Jiupin Snack Street: 'Jiupin' means nine grades, and each grade has three levels, so Jiupin has twenty-seven levels in total, which means that in Jinli's Jiupin Street, if you try a little bit of each snack, even twenty-seven mouths would not be enough. The snacks are laid out in a line, including Zhang Fei beef, fatty intestine powder, cool cakes, Ye'erba, Three Cannons, Sad Cool Noodles, Bamboo Leaf Steamed Beef, Beef Burnt Cake, Bobo Chicken, Sugar Oil Fruit, and other delicacies
Zhuge Well: It is said that Zhuge Well was dug by Zhuge Liang for the benefit of the people, and Zhuge Lu was the residence of Zhuge Liang before he came out of seclusion
The First Archway of Western Shu: The 'First Street of Western Shu' archway, as the iconic archway of Jinli, is the boundary between Jinli Phase I and Waterfront Jinli
Fushou Alley: Fushou Alley, that is, 'Fu' at the head of the alley, and 'Shou' at the end
Huanglongtan: There is a small bridge and a lake pavilion built on Huanglongtan, and the lake pavilion is called Fengyi Pavilion
Adou Well: There are two old wells in Jinli, one is 'Zhuge Well' and the other is 'Adou Well'
Song Dynasty Stone Carving Corridor: In the middle section of Yanxi Avenue in Jinli, there is a brick wall and green tile corridor landscape architecture built on a small slope. Under the cover of a large lawn and lush green trees, it looks like a winding dragon.
Personal experience: Compared to Kuanzhai Alley, I personally think Jinli is more worth visiting. It is also a commercial street, also crowded with people, but I still think Jinli is more worth visiting. Of course, Wuhou Shrine is more worth it, mainly because compared to Kuanzhai Alley, Jinli has a slightly higher cost-performance ratio. However, friends who want to go should not have too high expectations. The essence is still a commercial street, which is just shopping and eating. There is nothing that will be very eye-catching. The night lights will look much better. I hope the information can be helpful, and finally, I wish everyone a happy day every day!
Jinli Ancient Street: Separated from Wuhou Shrine by just a wall, the architectural style is that of Sichuan residential houses from the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, combining Three Kingdoms culture with traditional Sichuan folk culture. It opened to the public in 2004. It's a paradise for foodies.
On Jinli Jiupin Street, there are various snacks such as Zhang Fei beef, fatty intestine powder, cool cakes, Ye'erba, San Da Pao, Sadness Noodles, bamboo leaf steamed beef, beef burnt cakes, Bobo chicken, sugar oil fruit, and so on. Even twenty-seven mouths would not be enough, so why not try a snack combo!
