Anonymous userIt's quite large inside, and you need to take a sightseeing bus. You should go early, otherwise the pandas will be asleep. The pandas are most concentrated and lively in the Star Nursery, and the area is very new. Definitely don't buy the pendant set; it's a rip-off. It costs an extra seven yuan for a very cheap pendant, which you can find online for just one or two yuan.

芳华有尽，行者无疆When the vibrant atmosphere of the nighttime economy, the human touch of tourism services, and the rustic charm of the integration of agriculture, culture, and tourism intertwine, they create a new era of urban development, reflecting a global perspective on urban landscape.

百里东JayIt is very beautiful place. Quiet and peaceful inside. Looks like the house in Chinese drama. I like it.

难 得糊 涂Chengdu's Wenshufang, located at No. 66 Wenshuyuan Street in Qingyang District, is a national AAAA-level open-air historical and cultural district built around the ancient Wenshuyuan Temple. Admission is free and the area is open 24 hours a day, though it's recommended to plan a three- to four-hour visit. The district's architectural style is inspired by traditional western Sichuan courtyards, with blue tiles, white walls, and carved eaves. This creates a unique "courtyard-style commercial street" feel, earning it the nickname "Chengdu's Double Embroidery"—the sound of Buddhist chants echoes within the red walls, while the bustling market life unfolds beyond. Wenshufang's core identity can be summarized as "Zen culture combined with traditional Chengdu folk customs." Within the district, there's a temple every 100 steps and a pagoda every 1,000 steps. In addition to Wenshuyuan Temple (built in the Sui Dynasty and inscribed by Emperor Kangxi), the district also preserves the remains of the "Nine Palaces and Eighteen Temples," including the Five Mountains Palace, Lengjia Nunnery, and Aido Hall. This area boasts the most concentrated religious and cultural heritage in Chengdu's old city. Building on this foundation, the neighborhood has incorporated elements such as the "Empty Forest Zen Road" market for Zen-inspired goods, the "Manjusri Blessed Land" cluster of protected courtyards, the "Folk Old Street" offering intangible cultural heritage crafts, the "Chengdu Salon" teahouse featuring antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, as well as the "Old Chengdu Food Court" and "Tianzi Food Hall." This all-in-one experience combines incense worship, Hanfu travel photography, gaiwan tea, Sichuan Opera face-changing, and century-old snacks (such as dragon wontons, Zhong dumplings, and Lai glutinous rice balls). The atmosphere is enhanced by the lighting of lanterns at night. Wenshufang is a free historical district offering the most concentrated and convenient experience of old Chengdu: burning incense, enjoying vegetarian food, drinking tea, watching opera, strolling the ancient streets, enjoying snacks, shopping for cultural products, and photographing Hanfu costumes. For a quick experience of slow living and the essence of Zen, simply add this area to your half-day itinerary.

帕德纳特文征明Strolling through the Chengdu Museum is like walking through a time tunnel. From the simple stone tools of the Neolithic Age to the bustling street scenes of the Republic of China era, every artifact tells the story of the vicissitudes and glory of the "Land of Abundance." The historical exhibition "Flowers Bloom in Chengdu" takes you back to ancient Shu, while the shadow puppetry "Shadows Dancing in Myriad Forms" showcases the dynamism of folk art. This is not only a museum of history, but also a warm home for the shared memories of the people of Chengdu, allowing visitors to deeply feel the city's profound cultural heritage and unique charm.

M16***81A huge museum! We originally went to see the children's art exhibition, but since we were already there, we also visited the museum's exhibits. The categories were very detailed: dinosaurs, gorillas, lions, birds, butterflies… it really is a huge encyclopedia! It's definitely worth bringing children to visit, allowing them to learn more about nature through hands-on experience. The tickets are also very affordable, making it especially suitable for family trips.
94.7/5Anonymous userHow could you visit Sichuan without seeing pandas! After doing a lot of research, I chose this base where I could get up close and personal with them. Traveling during the off-season was perfect – less crowded and a truly immersive experience! The weather was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, ideal for watching the pandas frolic. It turns out these adorable pandas are actually "hidden beasts" – you can only observe them quietly up close, not touch them, which adds to their charmingly wild side. Watching them happily devour bamboo shoots or roll around and nap, their endearing antics were captivating. The entire experience was immersive and therapeutic, a truly relaxing and therapeutic experience. I definitely want to bring my kids next time to experience the joy of being a panda "cat servant"!

我就是豆子This is my second visit, and I would still recommend it to friends from out of town. There are many pandas, they can interact up close, and you don't have to deal with crowds or queues. The only inconvenience is that you need to drive, and since it's far from Chengdu, traffic jams can be a bit annoying. Overall, it's definitely worth a visit.
Achieved a 3-year streak on the annual lists
