    "Incredible history behind the Dujiangyan irrigation system, but also a brilliant place to hike. You can end your walk in the nearby ancient city."
    Highlights: The Dujiangyan Irrigation System is located along the main branch of the Lancang River, west of Dujiangyan City. It was constructed in the Qin dynasty around 256 BC by Li Bing, Prefecture Chief of Shu County, and his son. It is one of the few ancient Chinese water conservancy projects that has remained preserved and intact. The project consists of three primary works—Yuzui Diverting Embankment, the Feishayan Spillway, and the Baopingkou Water Inlet, and two secondary works which include the Baizhangdi (the thousand-feet dam) and Renzidi (the y-shaped dam). They divide the Yongjiang River into an outer and an inner branch, the former of which is used to divert floods and the latter for irrigation. This has allowed the Western Sichuan plateau to become "the land of abundance" as we now know it.

    Emeishan
    112.8km from downtown
    E35***13
    "Excellent place for a weekend trip from Chengdu. It is a big park/mountain. Took the bus up to the cable car. There are 2 cable car routes. One is private; the other is public. Worth the extra money to not be cramped in a cable car with 100 other people, so I recommend the former. Avoid going on any National holidays as it can be quite crowded with people. Any places to eat or grab a snack up on the mountain."
    Highlights: Mount Emei is one of the four famous mountains of Chinese Buddhism, and it is also the temple of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. There are numerous Buddhist monasteries in the mountains that combine to give this place a holy and serene atmosphere. The scenery in the mountains are beautiful.
