It's worth going. It's really worth going. After seeing the photos, I didn't dare to comment easily. I was worried that my vulgar language would tarnish the rare beauty in this world. But I still commented. I think if I can't leave a comment behind such a beautiful photo, it will be a lifelong regret.
The Leshan Giant Buddha is Sichuan's most famous attraction and well worth a visit. However, the area is quite far from the east gate, requiring a 10-yuan taxi ride. The entrance fee is already quite high, and there's also a transportation fee. It's unfriendly.

I have always been curious about Sichuan, but when I came to the Sichuan Museum, I was more shocked. The young lady gave a steady and pleasant explanation for more than three hours. She also had a good grasp of the rhythm. I saw the national treasure stone scriptures. I always thought it was a barbarian land, with no human traffic with the Qinsai. The three hours ended with a feeling of not having enough, but there was no display after the Song Dynasty. The knowledge in the textbooks collided with reality, and I slowly digested it myself. Suddenly I understood a sentence: learning alone without friends will lead to ignorance. There are some things in my mind that I haven't grasped yet.
The following is the original Wenshufang scenic spot review (about 200 words):---**Wenshufang: The intertwined Zen life field of Foyun City, niche but worth the slow product! **** Worth it? ** If you want to avoid the torrent of tourists, experience the Buddhist life of Chengdu people "left-handed rosary and right-hand tea"**, it is more localized than the commercial ancient town ** suitable for slow-walkers who like quiet and love cultural details**, and choose carefully for those who walk around and watch flowers. **Core highlights: ** 1. **Millennium ancient temple fireworks:**Close to the red wall of Wenshu Monastery** (free! ), listen to the morning bell and evening drums, watch the fragrant worship, turn around and plunge into the street old brand: **Dongzikou Zhang jelly powder** sweet and spicy interweaving, **The long queue of palace peach peach** hides the local taste belief. 2. **Non-legacy craftsman live exhibition: **In the **West Sichuan residential courtyard**: ✅ Master Yinhua silk fingertips pull out 0.1mm Gold wire; ✅ Peacock feather line on the embroidered bandstand is gradient like a rainbow; ✅ Handmade teahouse long-billed copper pots draw arc light ** non-performance, is daily**. 3. ** Hidden treasure space: ** 📚 ** Ancient Bookstore ** Taomingu Buddhist scriptures; � **Zen Tea House** Bamboo curtain half roll, drink Mengding Mannlu and listen to the guqin panyin; 🌿 **Xiangdao Hall** Learn Hexiang, seal the "Spring Letter in the Snow" into the porcelain can and take away. **Guide to avoiding pits: **⚠️ Main Street shops are homogeneous, **Drilling to the side alley courtyard** is really interesting; 🌙 **The best night**The sound of the prayer wheel in the temple, the lanterns reflect the blue tiles, and the Buddha rhyme city is perfectly balanced; 🚫 Do not buy "open light" goods and respect the purity of religion. **Summary: ** This is not a place for net reds to punch in, but a capillaries of Zen life in Chengdu**. When you bite a hot Yan Taipo Guokui under a century-old ginkgo, see the magical authenticity of the monks floating through the sugar painting stalls, only Chengdu has it. ** --- *The review is based on the local cultural immersion experience, and the original content is derived from many field visits and interviews with non-legacy craftsmen. Reject the scenic draft speech. *

This place is worth a visit as it has thrilling rides! We went in September and there were not much crowds. We spent the whole day there and there’s even a mini zoo there! Most of the rides only operate from 11am so you can arrive 30mins beforehand. There is go kart racing as well which I 100% recommend others to try out as well.
I had a crazy day at Happy Valley with my bestie. The roller coaster, the pendulum, and the rapids were all so thrilling that I did them all twice. The atmosphere of the park was awesome, and we agreed to come back every year to check in.

The Jinjiang Night Cruise VIP is truly worth it. Firstly, the duration is longer than a regular cruise, there's no waiting in line, and the seats are comfortable. You can enjoy tea and snacks while admiring the beautiful scenery along the Jinjiang River. You can also watch beautiful performances and experience Chengdu's slow pace of life. It's truly relaxing. The only downside is that I think it would have been much better if there were a description of the scenery.
It's worth it, no need to queue, dedicated WeChat and reception to lead, boarding exceeded expectations, air conditioning, boiling water for tea, audio, performances, the boat is very stable, this is worthy of being selected for the Chengdu trip.

My boyfriend and I had a truly culturally enriching date at Jiuzhaigou Qianguqing! We hung prayer plaques and learned Tibetan dance together. His clumsy movements made the whole audience laugh. This shared cultural experience was even more memorable than just a simple meal or movie. Afterward, he said, "I didn't realize cultural performances could be this fun! I'll bring my parents back next time!"
As a photography enthusiast, the dark scene design of Jiuzhaigou Eternal Love is so friendly! The lighting technicians know how to use soft light when shooting close-ups of actors to avoid overexposure. The photos taken are so popular that they can be shared on social media without any retouching. In particular, the silver jewelry worn by the actors reflects light in the dark, and every shot is a highlight. It is a dream location for photographers.

[Scenery] Crowded with people, it's a sea of people. There's a wide variety of food and drinks, as well as Sichuan Opera face-changing and traditional Chengdu ear cleaning. It's a great place to enjoy!
[Fun] See the life of Chengdu.
[Value for money] No entrance fee
Strolling through Kuanzhai Alley, time slows down. Amidst the blue bricks and black tiles, the vibrant atmosphere of old Chengdu flows quietly. The aroma of tea in Kuanxiang drifts through carved window lattices, while lanterns in Zhaixiang illuminate the cobblestone pavement. Behind each wooden door lies a memory of the past. Savor a bite of sugar-coated fruit, listen to a storytelling performance, and let the leisurely charm of Sichuan permeate your heart. Here, the vastness is in the sentiments, the narrowness is in the years.

Jinli Ancient Street, located next to the Wuhou Temple in Chengdu, is a historic district steeped in Three Kingdoms culture and known as Chengdu's "Chengdu's Cultural Icon." As a tourist attraction integrating history, culture, folk customs, entertainment, and culinary delights, Jinli attracts numerous domestic and international visitors seeking to experience Chengdu's traditional charm. An objective evaluation of Jinli Ancient Street requires both acknowledging its cultural value and tourism resources, while also cautioning visitors against potential consumer traps.
I. Worthwhile Places and Experiences
Wuhou Temple: As one of Jinli's core attractions, it commemorates Zhuge Liang, Prime Minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period. Not only does it offer insights into the history of the Three Kingdoms period, but it also boasts exquisite ancient architecture and sculptures, making it a must-see for immersing oneself in Chengdu's history and culture.
Traditional Handicraft Shops: The street is home to numerous handicraft shops specializing in Sichuan embroidery, paper-cutting, pottery, and woodcarving. These shops showcase traditional Sichuan crafts, allowing visitors to admire their skills and purchase unique handicrafts as souvenirs.
Cultural Performances: Jinli frequently hosts performances such as Sichuan Opera face-changing, acrobatics, and folk dances, enriching visitors' cultural experiences. These performances are typically held in designated venues and are reasonably priced, making them worth seeing.
Specialty Food: Jinli offers a wide variety of authentic Sichuan cuisine, including chuanchuanxiang (Chinese savory glutinous rice flour dumplings), rabbit tofu, dandan noodles, tofu pudding, and sugar-coated fruit. Visitors are advised to try the local snacks, but be mindful of price and hygiene.
Nighttime Experience: Jinli is ablaze with lights and lanterns at night, creating a lively atmosphere and making it a great spot for photographing and experiencing Chengdu's nightlife.
II. Potential High-Consumption Traps and Avoidance Tips
Overpriced Goods and Food: Some stalls and shops cater to tourists with significantly higher prices. Especially during peak tourist season, some businesses may inflate their prices. It's recommended to check market prices in advance and compare prices before purchasing.
Price Traps for "Specialty Performances": Some cultural performances or experiences may appear low-priced, but the actual prices may be higher and may not be worth the price. It's recommended to research the performance content and prices in advance and choose reputable venues.
Price Traps for Souvenirs: Some handicrafts are inflated, especially those advertised as "limited edition" or "handmade." Compare prices before making a purchase to avoid being ripped off.
Shopping guides may use enthusiastic salespeople to entice you into buying overpriced items, especially those deemed "special" or "rare." It's recommended to remain rational and avoid impulsive purchases.
Food pitfalls: Some restaurants and food stalls are overpriced, and hygiene conditions vary. It's recommended to choose popular and reputable establishments, or to check prices in advance.
III. Overall Recommendations
Jinli Ancient Street is a great place to experience Chengdu's traditional culture and authentic cuisine, but visitors should exercise reasonable spending habits. Research prices ahead of time to avoid blindly following trends or being tempted by high prices. Choose reputable shops and performance venues to enjoy a cultural feast while avoiding unnecessary financial losses. Manage your time wisely to fully experience the culture without being burdened by high costs.
In short, Jinli Ancient Street, with its rich cultural heritage and unique charm, is worth a visit, but it also requires careful consideration.

Langzhong Ancient City: The millennium fengshui famous city on the banks of the Jialing River is located in the northeast margin of the Sichuan Basin and the middle reaches of the Jialing River. It is a national 5A-level tourist scenic spot, and is called the "Four Ancient Citys of China" with Lijiang, Shanxi Pingyao and Anhui. The core area of the ancient city covers an area of 2 square kilometers, and the total area of the scenic spot is 4.59 square kilometers. The ancient city of Langzhong has a history of building the city for more than 2,300 years, and it was once a military town of ancient Baguo and the state of the state. In the later stages of the Warring States, the state destroyed the country and moved from Jiangzhou to the capital of Langzhong. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Fei, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, was once the Brazilian Taishou, and the town was guarded for seven years. He was finally buried here. The Zhang Fei Temple (Hou Temple of the Han Dynasty) in the ancient city was built to commemorate him. Yuzhong was the temporary provincial capital of Sichuan for 17 years in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty, and the Sichuan provincial township test was held here in the early Qing Dynasty. It is also the cultural hometown of the Chinese Spring Festival. The famous astronomers in the West Han Dynasty dropped the "Taichu Calendar" created by Yuan (Yuzhong) is the first complete calendar with written records in China. The layout of the ancient city reflects the ancient Chinese residential feng shui view, the chessboard-style pattern, the building complex integrating the north and south styles, forming a different architectural group such as "half-bead" and "product" fonts, which is a typical example of the "heaven and man in one" site selection in ancient China. ---First day of the 2-day tour of the ancient city of Langzhong: roaming the core area of the ancient city morning: start your day's itinerary from Huaguang Building (mount Huaguang Building, overlooking the panoramic view of the ancient city and the scenery of Jialing River). Then visit the North Sichuan Daoshu (the dispatched agency of the provincial governments of Ming and Qing dynasties, which is large in scale and rich in content) and the Confucian Temple. Afternoon: visit the Hou Temple of Han Dynasty (Zhang Fei Temple) and feel the culture of the three countries. Then go to the Gongyuan (the examination room of the Qing township test to learn about the ancient imperial examination system). In the evening: taste the ancient city food (Zhang Fei Beef, Yuzhong Beef Noodles, Yuzhong jelly), and stay in the ancient city at night (such as Huajiantang·Yuyuan, Dujia Inn, etc.). Day 2: Explore the surrounding attractions morning: Go to Baita Mountain, climb the Baita overlooking the whole view of the ancient city and the Jialing River (this is a great location to watch the feng shui pattern of the ancient city). Then go to the Big Buddha Temple (there are Buddha statues in the Tang Dynasty). Afternoon: Visit Jinping Mountain, which is known as the "Yuanyuan Wonderland" and "Jialing's First River and Mountain". You can stand on the top of the mountain and overlook the entire ancient city. If time permits, you can visit the Tengwang Pavilion (built when the town of Yuwang Li Yuanying in the Tang Dynasty was guarded by Zhangzhou). In the evening: Taste local specialty snacks (such as oil tea dumplings, square pot helmets, etc.) Ticket suggestions: buy one ticket to the ancient city (about 100 yuan, online purchase may be more favorable), including many core attractions in the ancient city, cost-effective, usually three days effective (each attraction can only enter once). Food recommendation: · Zhang Fei Beef · Yuzhong Beef Noodles (recommended for "Yinxian Beef Noodles" outside the ancient city) · Yuzhong jelly powder · Baoning steamed dumplings (traditional food, soft taste, sweet taste) Accommodation advice: · Inn in the ancient city: such as Huajiantang · Yuyuan, Dujia Inn, etc., experience the antique living environment. · Hotels outside the ancient city: Rugao Zhongjin Yuan Zhangfei International Hotel (five-star standard), Zhang Yide Hotel (high cost performance), usually quieter
The environment was incredibly hot. The north-south alleys were shaded by trees, but the east-west alleys lacked shade and were scorching in the summer sun.
The value for money was excellent. The four attractions included a total of 140 yuan each, while the combined entrance fee was only 100 yuan.
It was very convenient to simply scan your ID at the entrance.

As the lights begin to come on, Chengdu's Chunxi Road, nestled in the dusky night sky, is always ablaze with vibrant lights and bustling with activity. Here, towering skyscrapers blend modern architecture with traditional Western Sichuan style, showcasing the city's inclusiveness and innovation. It is Chengdu's most iconic commercial pedestrian street and a hallmark of the city. Built in 1924 by Sichuan warlord Yang Sen and completed in 1926, Chunxi Road boasts a rich history. Originally named "Senwei Road," it was later renamed by Jiang Ziyu, inspired by the line "The throngs bustling about, as if ascending a spring terrace" from the Tao Te Ching, symbolizing the bustling commercial life and the thriving people. Already thriving during the Republican era, it underwent a brief name change after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The area boasts historical and cultural landmarks such as Zhongshan Square and the bronze statue of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, as well as popular photo-ops like the climbing panda, the Times Landmark screen, and the Van Gogh Starry Sky Museum. The nearby Daci Temple boasts a cultural heritage spanning over 1,600 years. Chengdu's culinary culture is also evident in its many time-honored delicacies, including Zhong Dumplings and Long Chao Shou. #MyTravelDiary# #TravelEncounterBeauty# #RecordHumanities# #SichuanTravel# #LifeNotes#

The female warriors are handsome, and the four beauties perform together with grace and grace. The hand shadow play is lifelike, imitating various animals. This really took a lot of effort, otherwise it would not be so familiar. The rubber band rolling lantern clown with ears is hilarious. The mannequin dance is not much inferior to the real one. The long-mouthed pot Kung Fu tea is exquisite traditional skills. The interactive small link, pouring tea for the guests, is very heartwarming. The opera water sleeve dance, the actor's level is second only to Zhang Ziyi. The acrobatics go against the wind, the perfect fusion of strength and beauty. The face-changing show is the finale, a classic Chinese quintessence. It is worth recommending.
Checking in on Xiaohongshu was a great experience. The hour-long show was fantastic, with tight transitions, and the young actors performed with great effort. After the gaiwan tea and face-changing performances, they came off stage to interact with the audience, and my son was fascinated and applauded. Our first day in Chengdu was a big surprise and a great start to our trip. The prices were great too: gaiwan tea was only 10 yuan per person, and they also had popcorn and sausage.
