Comfortable sneakers are a must for walking around Kuanzhai Alley without tiring your feet! 🧣 **Warm Accessories**: Choose scarves and hats made of pure cotton. Jinli Ancient Street is perfect for photos. Always carry an umbrella (Chengdu’s autumn rain can start suddenly!) 📱 **Electronics**: Bring a 20,000mAh power bank as charging stations are scarce in scenic spots; a selfie stick is great for snapping pics at the Panda Base’s popular spots; use a waterproof phone pouch for unexpected rain! 💊 **Medicines**: Pack stomach medicine (hotpot and skewers are delicious but spicy), motion sickness patches (Qingcheng Mountain’s winding roads can cause nausea), and band-aids for minor scrapes! 👛 **Documents**: Always carry your ID! Student and senior cards get discounts at attractions. Bring some cash (some old teahouses only accept cash for brewing tea in lidded bowls)! 🧴 **Skincare**: Focus on moisturizing cream and lip balm (Chengdu’s autumn and winter are dry), don’t skimp on sunscreen (UV rays are strong even on cloudy days), and handy wet wipes for cleaning hands! 🎒 **Storage**: Foldable shopping bags for souvenirs (Zhang Fei beef/jin embroidery), sealed bags for wet clothes, and a small backpack to free your hands while strolling Chunxi Road! 🌶️ Everyone, save this guide quickly! With it, you won’t get lost on group tours around Chengdu and nearby areas, and you’ll have an amazing, fulfilling time!

Five Flower Lake

Ready for a southwest China adventure? 🚄🌲 This trip hit up Dujiangyan’s Panda Valley—hello adorable, energetic little pandas—plus Jiuzhaigou’s stunning Five Flower Lake in golden November, and the sparkling nightscape of Chongqing with a comfy stay near Hongyadung. Top Spots to Visit: 1. Panda Valley (Dujiangyan) 🐼 | Baima Village, Yutang Town Open Nov–Apr: 8:00–17:30 (admission ends 16:30), ¥68. Pro tip: Arrive early for peak panda play time. These guys are way more active in the mornings, and the valley itself is smaller and feels personal, so close-up, playful panda moments are guaranteed! 2. Five Flower Lake (Jiuzhaigou) 🍁 | Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area Open all day year-round. November means autumn colors in full glory—think sparkling turquoise, vibrant maples, and mirror-like reflections. Don’t skip photos by the maple trees near the water’s edge if the sun’s out! 3. Hongyadung Night Scene (Chongqing) 🌃 Stay at Chongqing Jingmu Xinyue Hotel (Jiefangbei Hongyadong Branch), 6F, Bldg B, Gaosheng Chuangfu Center, 112 Jialing River Binjiang Road. The hotel’s river views and easy metro/monorail access make night strolls to Hongyadung super chill. Staff are generally friendly and helpful, but bring earplugs as soundproofing can be hit-or-miss. Local Hacks: - Get around: Metro/monorail in Chongqing is cheap, fast, great for riverfront and Hongyadung. - Eating out: Try spicy hotpot in Chongqing (near the hotel and river)—it’s the city’s pride! - Weather tip: Jiuzhaigou in November is crisp and sunny, perfect for hiking, but pack layers for chilly mornings. - Money: Most places take mobile pay (WeChat/Alipay), cash works for tickets, street snacks. #ChengduPandas #JiuzhaigouAutumn #HongyadungNight #ChinaNature #Tripdotcom
