Summer in Chengdu is really hot and humid, so the pandas will be indoors. Walking on the hot summer between the places can be too much, but it is nice...
I didn't see Huahua, which was a bit disappointing. There weren't many people there on Monday, and except for the 20-minute shuttle ride at the entrance, there were almost no lines for anything else, including the pandas. We saw a lot of pandas, and they were quite active. We spent over 8 minutes watching two pandas fighting. The winner lay down like Ge You, while the loser seemed to lie on the ground without making a sound.

Dujiangyan, this world-famous water conservancy project, is not only the crystallization of ancient Chinese wisdom, but also the perfect combination of nature and humanity. It has both ancient water conservancy legends and beautiful natural scenery. If you are interested in history and culture, or want to find a quiet place, Dujiangyan is definitely a destination you can't miss.
Dujiangyan: A Solidified Water Conservancy Epic
The Dujiangyan scenic area showcases more than just a water conservancy project; it depicts a three-dimensional epic etched on the banks of the Minjiang River. Passing Fulongguan, the Yuzui Diversion Dike appears like a sharp sword, dividing the turbulent river in two. Its ingenious diversion mechanism still amazes us today. Looking down from the Anlan Cable Bridge, the Inner and Outer Rivers wind like two jade belts, their wisdom from two thousand years ago gleaming in the shimmering waters.
The scenic area is ingeniously designed. The Sichuan-style gardens of Lidui Park seamlessly integrate with the water conservancy project. Rare plants such as the Zhang pine and ginkgo trees are dotted among the towering ancient trees. The statues of Li Bing and his son at Erwang Temple are solemn and majestic. Amidst the incense smoke, one can almost hear the sound of hammers as they carved through the mountain to divert water. Most moving of all is the gurgling stream that continues to irrigate the Chengdu Plain, elevating this ancient project beyond its historical value to a living cultural heritage. We recommend visiting in the early morning, when a thin mist shrouds the Vajra Dike, to truly experience the timeless resonance of the six-character mantra "dredge deep, build low dams."

Sanxingdui is definitely worth a visit.
The reserved tickets and explanations were excellent.
The bamboo beauty's explanation was very interesting. A more in-depth explanation is a must. Everyone was happy to attend, and it was a fascinating experience. The children kept up with the entire experience. My son loved it, too. 😍
Please make sure to check out the last photo. Bamboo beauty 🍍🍍🍍
As expected, the tour guide Xiao Zhang explained the whole process for more than 2 hours and took us to see the most exciting things. The content was profound and interesting. Both big and small could understand it. It must be praised.

It was much smaller than I thought. It rained heavily on the 16th and I got soaked and hid in a teahouse. The waiter didn't even let the children in and kept asking everyone to wait outside the door. It was very commercial and uncomfortable.
As the last attraction of this tour, Du Fu Thatched Cottage did not disappoint me. It was so beautiful. The style was completely different from that of Suzhou gardens and Beijing gardens. It is said to be the style of Sichuan gardens. I suggest that you do not define it as a historical relic, but simply visit it as a garden with information and knowledge related to Du Fu. Because of my basic education, I have actually learned most of the knowledge mentioned in it, so my focus in visiting the museum was on the garden itself and the entry points and angles of later generations to interpret Du Fu. To understand a poet, you still need to draw from his works. This kind of commemorative significance is often edited from the perspective of later generations. However, it is quite interesting to see the focus of other people's introduction of Du Fu. In the subtle perspective, we can glimpse the hidden subconscious and values.

The characters from books and the plots from television shows are brought to life here in the most intuitive way. This is the sacred place I've longed to visit. There's no disappointment, just the inevitable sadness: death before achieving success.
There are quite a lot of people, but it's okay, just wander around. After all, it is set in the Three Kingdoms period and has traditional Chinese Shu culture, so it is quite attractive.

There were still quite a lot of people during the summer peak season. Fortunately, the scenic area is well managed, and parking and getting off the Buddha's Foot platform are all in good order. However, the parking road is very narrow, making it a bit difficult to pass by.
It's worth making a special trip to Leshan. Hiking doesn't offer a full view of the Giant Buddha, but taking a boat trip allows for a fuller view. However, hiking offers other gardens and scenic views. Leshan also boasts delicious food, such as sweet-skin duck and paper-wrapped siu mai.
One other note: During the summer, waiting in line to reach the foot of the Giant Buddha takes about an hour and a half. During holidays, the line can be even longer.

It's convenient. I bought a ticket on Ctrip and could enter the scenic area by simply swiping my ID card. The front entrance is all stairs, so it's not that difficult. You can also take the cable car. You can also take a boat ride on Yuecheng Lake. The ticket is 5 yuan per person (the same price 10 years ago), which is worth experiencing.
There were a lot of people during the peak summer season, so my enthusiasm for traveling was a bit dampened. There were so many people queuing for the cable car that I decided to climb up by myself. I booked a show, which the children loved, but the adults didn't feel much.

After returning from Jiuzhaigou, I went to Siguniang Mountain. I was worried that the scenery would be the same, but I thought too much. The Shuangqiao Valley in Siguniang Mountain is surrounded by mountains on all sides. It is so spectacular. I wonder how beautiful it will be in winter. The nanny car on the way back was quite spacious and parked in the ground parking lot. It was very convenient to park in Yipintianxia when returning to Chengdu.
The scenery is still okay, but the road is too congested, especially the last five kilometers to the entrance of the scenic spot. It is a mess both entering and exiting. It takes ten hours on the road and one hour to see the scenery.

I went there at noon, and there were not many people. I queued for less than ten minutes before I got on the other side. It was worth the experience. The scenery on both sides was pleasant. There was also an observation deck on the south bank for taking photos, which was very nice. Xiahaoli is not far away, so you can visit it together.
It's a very different experience. The beautiful scenery of the city is at your feet, and you feel like you've been brought into a movie. Many movies were filmed here, and it is the most important check-in spot for Chongqing tourists.
