, a city that cannot be left when you come.

The song "Chengdu" by Zhao Lei is full of memories and longing

The only thing Chengdu can't take away is you and I walking on the streets of Chengdu...

Go to the end of Yulin Road and sit in front of the tavern

.................................

Golden ginkgo leaves in December cover the entire street

I never forgot you in that beautiful town

The first time I came here, I fell in love with Chengdu, a "gentle" city. There is a kind of leisure and freedom in this city all the time. City people's lives are neither slow nor slow, relaxed and fun. They like this feeling of being slow and very humane and lively.

Stroll in Chengdu Street Park

In December, Chengdu is full of golden yellow. Walking on the streets is full of the thick but just right ginkgo yellow. The warm sunshine shines on the ground and reflects on us. It is winter but it is more like autumn. We bid farewell to Chongqing for a short period of time. It is chilly, and my niece also had a very good time.

After lunch, we walked all the way to the People's Park. Everywhere we passed was all eye-catching golden color. The winter here was like belated autumn, with the yellow color all over the world, creating a sense of randomness.

People's Park is a must-visit place when you come to Chengdu. It has its unique taste no matter what season it is. It is also a good place to drink tea, be in a daze, and chat! Enjoy the shade and enjoy lotus flowers in spring and summer, and enjoy ginkgo maple leaves in autumn and winter.

It is a historical park in the center of the city. Compared with antique streets such as Jinli and Kuanzhai Alley, you can feel the slow life of the local Chengdu people (there are also many tourists). Chengdu City People's Park, formerly known as Shaocheng Park, was built in 1911. The origin of Shaocheng Park is directly related to the naming of the city in old Chengdu. Chengdu was originally divided into big city and small city. As early as 311 BC, during the reign of King Hui of Qin, Chengdu had Taicheng (also known as Dacheng) and Shaocheng (also known as Small City).

Heming Tea House is the largest and well-preserved tea house in People's Park. It retains the original flavor of old Chengdu tea culture and records the changes and history of the tea house. It is also one of the most "Western Sichuan folk customs and customs" teahouses. Here, you can try Chengdu's traditional leisure life such as tea, playing mahjong, and picking ears, and enjoy the comfortable life of Chengdu people. There are also snacks such as bell dumplings and baked egg cakes.

There are also many outsiders who come here to check in. They wanted to sit inside, but found that there were no empty seats. They were already full of guests, young and old, and it was very lively inside.

Although there are a lot of people here, it does not affect everyone taking photos. If you want to see ginkgo trees, it is a good choice to come here. Ginkgo trees are big and numerous, but I suggest that everyone come in the morning. At this time, the ginkgo leaves will be scattered all over the ground. The cleaning staff swept all the ginkgo leaves in the afternoon, and there were still few people in the morning.

On the side of the tea house is a rippling artificial lake. The lake is clear and clear, the lake is rippling with cruise ships, and the hills on the lake are lush and willows are lingering. here

You can sit on a bamboo chair all day, basking in the rare sun in Chengdu, while sipping a sip of scented tea, suddenly feeling the fragrance in your mouth, and squinting your eyes to "kill a lot of time."

Coming out of People's Park, you can walk to the wide and narrow alleys within a few steps.

about traffic

To the main gate of Ancestral Street Park, you can take buses Nos. 4, 5, 13, 14, 47, 29, 53, 64, 78, and 98 to reach it.

Eastern suburbs memory/music park?

Take buses Nos. 4, 30, 57, 98, 43, and 81 to reach Shanjia Square, Xindongdaemun, Banbianqiao Street.

Dongjiao Memory is located at No. 4 Jianshe South Branch Road on the east outer side of the Second Ring Road, Chenghua District, Chengdu City, Sichuan Province. It was originally the Chengdu East District Music Park. It is a multi-cultural park integrating music, art, drama, photography and other cultural forms. It is an industrial site themed tourist destination, an art and cultural performance settlement, a literary and artistic creation exchange park, and a Chengdu cultural and creative industry highland.

The memory of the eastern suburbs is somewhat special in Chengdu scenic spots. There is neither a dazzling array of delicious food nor a scenery that is not unique to Chengdu. However, its unique atmosphere has attracted batches of young artists and artists to check in. The main ones are Locomotive Square and Eastern Suburb Memory Museum, Star Wall, China Mobile Wireless Music Base, Chengdu Stage, and Jinsong Oriental Art Exhibition Center.

The predecessor of Dongjiao Memory was actually an old industrial park, which was later abandoned due to relocation and renovation. In the past few years, it was creatively transformed to retain the abandoned industry, integrate music, and create a super unique music themed Internet celebrity attraction, which not only retains the original factory characteristics, but also gives it a completely new look. The dialogue and collision between old and new, tradition and fashion, past and future make the memory of Dongjiao vivid and vivid.

The entire park is relatively large in scale and divided into many theme areas. Each element has strong visual impact and strong nostalgia.

There are also many art exhibitions and music performances, including anime exhibitions, music festivals, musicals, international exhibitions, happy Mahua stage dramas...

There is also a wall of stars in the memory of the eastern suburbs, where stars such as Wang Leehom, Li Chen, Yu Quan, and Zhang Liangying left their handprints. The cafes, bookstores, bars, etc. in the park are also worth visiting, and there are many music taverns in the pub, but it is not noisy at all, but very quiet.

"Repairing the old as old, and putting the old houses into new use" is the main feature of the memory architecture in the eastern suburbs. It combines the industrial aesthetics of the planned economy era with the functions of modern commercial buildings. The office buildings, multi-storey factories and industrial chimneys and pipes of the early 21st century create an artistic atmosphere with nostalgia and fashion in the memory of the eastern suburbs. You can walk in it, experience the music and art atmosphere in all directions, feel the charm of industrial relics, experience the development and changes of the city, and reminisce the memories of the past years.

Address: No. 4 Jianshe South Branch Road, East Outer Side of Second Ring Road, Chenghua District, Chengdu City

CRRC Shared City/Locomotive Park

A place where locals don't know about, CRRC Shared City. This was once the legendary place of China's heavy industries, inheriting the memory of Chengdu's industry for 68 years. When history and modernity collide with each other, it has become the latest check-in holy place at Chengdu's East Gate. Don't miss it when you come!

In April this year, the place was officially opened to the public. The factory building was turned into a garden, and the train cars were transformed into a graffiti paradise. All renovations focused on embedding artistic processing into the original building structure!

It is divided into several large areas, like large old factory areas. The dilapidated red brick exterior walls and reinforced structural columns reveal the beauty of the industry! Now this area is still undergoing renovation. Standing in the factory with a sense of space, the entire factory will become your home field.

The locomotive theme park is the most childlike place in the park. It retains the original railway tracks. The used railway cars have become the highlight here under the cool graffiti art processing. The locomotive and graffiti cars can interact with graffiti, and the renovated arrow seesaw and concrete rainwater pipes can be transformed into drilling devices to take childlike photos.

Four Seasons Garden, after entering the gate of the CRRC Shared City Park, behind a red brick wall similar to the St. Paul Archway is the Four Seasons Garden. The terrazzo on the ground and a red brick wall are retained here, and the roof and enclosure walls are removed to clearly show the steel frame structure of the factory building.

Air Corridor, there is an air sightseeing corridor about one kilometer, connecting the Four Seasons Garden and the Train Square in series. The overall structure is mainly a steel frame structure, full of industrial feel, and very suitable for taking photos!

Address: CRRC Sharing City Art Exhibition Center, Erxianqiao North Road, Chenghua District, Chengdu City.

Transportation: Metro Line 7 Erxianqiao Station, ten minutes 'walk after getting off the station.

Autumn in Taikoi

I like to walk on the streets of Taikoo Li most. It is not as beautiful as winter. There are scattered colors everywhere. Zhang Yimou once said that Chengdu is "a city that you don't want to leave when you come." I think what he said is very reasonable.

Chengdu has been known as the "Land of Abundance" since ancient times. "Chengdu opened in nine days, and thousands of families and doors entered the painting." In China's vast historical map, Chengdu is the only city whose city site and name have never changed since its establishment.

Taikoo Li, the trendy and fashion center of Chengdu, has intertwined lanes and open square spaces to present different urban pulses. At the same time, it introduces the concepts of fast and slow lanes, setting a trend model for an international metropolis. The fun of life worth playing with, the leisure taste of a metropolis, the numerous exquisite restaurants, and the unique atmosphere where history, culture and business blend allow people to enjoy a good time in the center of a busy city.

IFS International Financial Center is different from traditional indoor shopping centers. The architectural design of Chengdu Ocean Taikoo Li is unique. Retaining ancient streets and historic buildings, and integrating 2-3-story single-family buildings. The western Sichuan-style blue tiepo roof and grille are equipped with a large-area floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall. Chengdu Ocean Taikoili is both traditional and modern, creating an open and free urban space.

There is also a Daci Temple in the ancient times, an exotic paradise in the world. Daci Temple in Taikoo Li is hidden in the chaos of meditation. Daci Temple (also known as: Ancient Great Sage Ci Temple) adjacent to Taikoi is located on a section of Dongfeng Road in Chengdu City and was built between the 3rd and 4th centuries AD.

This simple, quiet and particularly eye-catching Daci Temple has stepped into the world of mortals from outside, bringing tranquility to the complex world in the modern business district.

Fangsuo Bookstore/Life Imposed in Literature and Art

Chengdu Fangsuo is the first Fangsuo Bookstore I checked in. It is close to Daci Temple. The huge bookstore of 4000 square meters is hidden underground in Taikoo Li, like a magical space independent of the world. The design concept is full of Buddhist wisdom, but the interior of the building reflects a heavy industrial style, like a dilapidated loft factory built with heavy concrete, abandoned before completion, and dimly lit; or it makes people feel like being in Noah's Ark, giving people the feeling of entering time and space through a mysterious tunnel. People at this time are like a drop in the ocean.

"Fangsuo" is a cultural complex based on bookstores and covering aesthetic life, plants, clothing, exhibition space, cultural lectures and coffee. It is said that the design inspiration of the Chengdu Square is derived from the concept of a Sutra Pavilion, so you will feel as vast as the sea when you walk in.

Find a book you like, find a free place to sit down, slowly flip through it, have a look, and have a cup of coffee. Even if this is the busiest and most noisy Taigu Li in Chengdu, in your heart, it is still a free place.

Yeszeng said: "I hope to return to the era of more poetry readings: 'The hidden lyricism in the chorus with the wind needs another listening.'" This sentence well summarizes the direction of Fangsuo Bookstore-humanities, art, design, and architecture. There are 40,000 kinds of Hong Kong and Taiwan books and nearly 10,000 kinds of foreign language books, as well as some mainland publications. If you have time, I suggest you come and have a look

Address: Shop No. M68-70, Chengdu Yuanyang Taikoli, No. 8 Zhongshamao Street, Jinjiang District, Chengdu City. It is on the first floor, facing the left hand side of Daci Temple.

Business hours: 10:00-22:00.

Transportation: Transportation is very convenient. You can take the subway (Line 2 or Line 3) to Chunxi Road Subway Station, and then walk in a few minutes.

Eat in Chengdu| Jiyu·Thai Seafood Hotpot

Jiyu Thai Seafood Hotpot, yes, it is the super popular hot pot restaurant that is full of queues every day in Chengdu but still can't eat it. You must not miss it when you come to Chengdu. Even if you queue up, it is worth it.

Chengdu's Internet celebrity food must check in. Jiyu specializes in Thai seafood hot pot. Among hot pot, it is a shop that integrates beauty and delicacy. As long as you search online, you can see that it ranks first among hot pot. It is so popular., taste and quality definitely goes without saying! Before I came here, I read various comments saying that there were dozens of tables queuing every day, with an average queuing time of 2-3 hours. Sure enough, I saw that the front of the Jiyu Store was full of diners from afar.

I especially like the INS-style Internet celebrity decoration inside. Green vegetation is covered inside and outside the store, set off in the fresh color atmosphere, and the breath of tropical rainforest comes to my face. At the same time, it is like being in Southeast Asia. It is super suitable for girlfriends and friends to take photos and show friends circle! It's not bad to come here to be an Internet celebrity ~

First of all, the soup base of this hot pot restaurant is different from ordinary spicy hot pot. It has a Thai flavor of tom yum, mainly sour and refreshing. The signature tom yum soup is a must-order. This time we tried the Yuanyang Pot, which looks very good. It has a super rich base. Coupled with fresh coconut juice and the clear soup, it is mellow and delicious. Drinking it warms your stomach and beautifying your skin this season.

If you come, I don't know how to order it properly, so I recommend his family's set meals. There are meals for two, meals for three, and set meals for five. We ordered a meal for three, which included shrimp, golden shellfish, lunch meat, wild red shellfish, bamboo fungus inlaid shrimp, live abalone, squid rings, Sabah fish, large raw oysters, sea crabs, slippery shrimp, fat beef + vegetable platter. The portions of seafood vary according to the number of people. It is also worth mentioning that, There is a waiter at his home who can push a cart full of snacks and desserts at any time, and they are available for free and unlimited supply.

Whether it is crabs, prawns, abalone, oysters... the signature seafood here is really fresh and fat. They are all the ones that can move when served on the table. Of course, if it is not enough, you can order seafood individually.

Coupled with six seasonings, it can satisfy the tastes of different guests. Lemon mint and spicy seafood are recommended. The spicy seafood does not taste spicy at all, and the seafood ingredients are super fragrant. Speaking of service, Jiyu's service is really excellent. It will take the initiative to help cook seafood, peel shrimp, etc. For people like me who don't eat shrimp until no one peels shrimp, it is a very necessary service. Hahaha.

In addition to the set menu, there are also many delicious dishes such as curry shrimp, grilled scallops, pineapple fried rice, etc., especially the fried rice cake. You must try it. The fried rice cake is not only delicious but also has a beautiful appearance. Remove the protective film on the outside and it will be a burst molten rock. You can feel like pearls beating in one bite. Remember one point

Hot pot is relatively common in Chengdu, but this is the first time I have eaten fish hot pot with pebbles. Fisherman, Fish Baby, Pebble Fish Hot Pot is the best among hot pots. Why do you say that? You'll understand when you come and eat.

The fisherman fish fish on Zhimin Road may seem ordinary, but the inside is very ancient. It is mainly in the traditional fisherman style, simple but solemn. It has old wooden doors and windows and some farmhouse bamboo hats and coir raincoats as decorations. It makes people feel like they have traveled back to the scene of fishing people in ancient times. It is ancient and full of charm.

At the entrance, there is a row of fish tanks containing different species of fish, including mullet, silver carp, river tuan, naked spot and other species of fish. Choose the fish you like, and then kill it and weigh it now. This perfectly ensures the freshness of the fish. Finally, slices and serves it on a wooden plate. It is exquisite and beautiful.

What's interesting is that there is also a small turntable designed on the wooden dining table. I think it is used to place snacks and side dishes. It's a very thoughtful design and very useful.

There are three flavors at the bottom of the pot: classic red pot, ancient pickled cabbage pot, and lemon pepper ginger pot (if you don't like spicy food, you can choose lemon pepper ginger pot). The waiter serves a pebble iron pot fired at more than 300 degrees, puts in the cut fresh fish slices, adds in the stock, and covers for a few minutes to enjoy. The fish slices cooked with pebbles and paired with special fish and butterfly ingredients make the meat tender, smooth and delicious.

In addition to fish, there are also various snacks and side dishes in the store that are also highly recommended, such as honey tomatoes, steamed orange buns, purple rice glutinous rice cake, fried small river shrimp, etc. If there are many people, you can try them all, especially the purple rice glutinous rice cake. Soft glutinous rice cake is super delicious.

Special recommendation. It has seven ingredients of jelly, including red dragon fruit, raisins, and papaya. It is full of portions. You can choose the ingredients according to your preferences, and of course, you can also add them all to make it more delicious.

Malatang on the roadside is an old taste and the most popular in Chengdu. "If you want to be rich, build roads first, have fewer children and plant more trees." Low tables, blue stools, cement floor wall paintings and slogans are full of memories from the 1980s, which is very down-to-earth. The whole nostalgic style seems to really take you back to the streets of the 1980s and take you to taste the most popular taste on the roadside.
