preface

After nearly two hours of high-speed rail, we have come to Chengdu, a fashionable and leisure capital.

Every time I visit Chengdu, I have a different excitement and aftertaste.

What are the different memorials this time--

Wenshu Temple is located in Qingyang District and is one of the key Buddhist temples in the country. It integrates Buddhist temples, ancient gardens, pilgrimage and sightseeing, and religious study. When we went there, we were caught in the sight of ginkgo flying golden everywhere.

When you approach Wenshu Courtyard, the first thing you see is the Zhaobi opposite the Sanmen. According to records, the "Wenshu Courtyard" and the "Ruize Deep in Heaven and Earth, and the style of the sect transcends ancient and modern times" on the Zhaobi are written by Zen Master Ci Du.

In addition, there are also halls such as Bell and Drum Tower, Ancestral Hall, Zhunti Hall, Yuantong Hall, Jade Buddha Hall, Third Temple, Wuguan Hall and other halls in the temple; in the 1980s, the old monk Kuanlin made a vow to build the Thousand Buddha Peace Tower to pray for world peace; The release pool and the east and west gardens also give the temple shade of green trees, singing birds and fragrant flowers. It is not only a holy place for practitioners, but also a leisure place for people around the temple.

Chengdu in early December is a good time to take ginkgo photos. Many tourists gathered under the ginkgo tree in Wenshu Temple to check in and take photos.

There were many tea performances that night at the scene, and everyone sat down and drank a free cup of tea by chatting. Communicate with each other and create a harmonious atmosphere.

Wenshu House retains the hearts of tourists. Whether you believe in Buddhism or not, you should come and have a look, sit down, and enjoy the relief in tranquility and the golden fluttering of the scenery.

Before we knew it was evening and we were ready to go to dinner. Of course, when you go to Chengdu, you have to find a down-to-earth local specialty restaurant to eat--

There is a very, very down-to-earth restaurant on Zhimin Road in Chengdu called Roadside Malatang. It has an absolute flavor of old Chengdu and is very suitable for skewers at night.

Mottled brick walls, yellow street lights; bicycles in the corner, small bamboo benches on the roadside--

Seeing such a scene is like traveling back to the last century. Grandma shook the cattail fan, Grandpa nibbled on the watermelon, and I, a little girl, was holding a bowl of ice powder and eating it with gusto...

Square tables, low stools, nostalgic enamel cups and plates; aluminum pots, bamboo chopsticks, familiar old times.

Walking on the roadside, I think older customers will think of their past to varying degrees.

Younger friends may be curious about such a scene, and the novel experience begins unknowingly during the meal.

Special dry dish seasoning is sprinkled on the soup in the pan, and the spicy degree can be selected according to the taste. Choose your own fresh meat dishes and vegetable strings at will. The quality is guaranteed. Remember to pick them less and more frequently!

Let me tell you how to make skewers. Cover all the skewers with a cup, so that they will not spread out, the dishes will be evenly heated, and they will not be exposed outside the soup base and become uncooked.

You don't just eat skewers. You can warm them like duck intestines and tripe, as long as you are happy and do whatever you want.

This restaurant mainly focuses on hot pot skewers, and its main specialty is Maocai. My favorite thing is their maocai, especially the maocai and maocai. Now I still swallow when I think about it. In the enamel plate, first add chopped peanuts and chili powder, use the soup base of the hot pot to make a paste, and then sprinkle with chopped chives and coriander. Before you even move your chopsticks, you can already feel the saliva in your mouth: )

The brain flowers were served, and the bowl was still emitting fireworks.

Take a bite, and the aroma of pepper and celery stirs the taste buds. The tenderness and satisfaction can only be understood and cannot be expressed in words: )

The thousand-layer belly is crispy and chewy, and I have already destroyed a bowl without realizing it: )

After eating, add a string of sugar, oil and fruits to combine the spicy taste and make the whole person feel comfortable!

Happy night, good night!

. The next day, we slept until we woke up naturally, and we went to the eastern suburbs of Chengdu to check in memory. Address: No. 4 Jianshe South Branch Road, outer side of Second Ring East Road, Chenghua District, Chengdu City. Transportation: Bus No. 180, 342, and 1013 go to Dongjiao Memory Beidaemun Station and walk 200 meters.

The location in the eastern suburbs turned out to be the Chengdu state-owned Hongguang Electronic Tube Factory in the 1950s. In 2009, the original factory area was preserved as an industrial civilization site and combined with cultural and creative industries to create a music industry base.

"Repairing the old as old and using the old houses as new" is the main feature of the Eastern Suburb Memory Architecture. It combines the industrial aesthetics of the planned economy era with the functions of modern commercial buildings, creating an artistic atmosphere of nostalgia and fashion in the Eastern Suburb Memory.

Feel the unique charm of industrial sites carefully, experience the development and changes of the city, and reminisce about the past years.

The Wall of Stars is composed of precious handprints left by many stars in the "15th Global Chinese Rankings and Asian Influence Ceremony" held in Chengdu on April 15, 2011, and memories of subsequent visits to the eastern suburbs. It is composed of the handprints of stars and celebrities from all walks of life.

There is also a check-in area for the public art exhibition themed of pandas and the world in the Eastern Suburb Memory. Many Alcoa and children like to come here to take photos.

Relying on the star magnetic field effect, the bar factory introduces cinemas and various music bars in areas where old industrial factories are concentrated. The style of the bar is consistent with the cold style of old industrial buildings, becoming the highest level and concentrated display of Chinese music bar culture.

The locomotive square here has the first batch of steam locomotives and two green leather carriages in Sichuan, attracting many guests of all ages to reminisce and take photos. Those passing memories in life are packed and taken away with the green leather carriages of the train...

It was almost noon, we went for lunch, and we came to the fourth section of Hongxing Road to eat seafood. Oyster Hero is located on the second floor of No. 25 - 23, Section 4, Hongxing Road, about a 10-minute walk from Chunxi Road Subway Station. Full buffet seafood barbecue, for 98 yuan, you can taste unlimited fat and juicy top fresh oysters at Oyster Hero!

Clean and orderly self-service seasoning area

There are two ways to eat it: roast with garlic and steam. In contrast, I still prefer grilled oysters. Put the fresh and juicy oysters on the electric roasting net first, add the secret garlic oil sauce. When the oysters squeak and are oily, sprinkle with chopped green onions and roast with a clip. After 5 minutes, the aroma of fresh oysters and garlic float into your nose. Put it on a plate to cool a little, inhale it in large gulps, wow! Delicious and tender, and I'm so excited! Then there was the rhythm that couldn't stop! If you find it troublesome to roast raw oysters one by one, you can also take a bowl and pack the peeled raw oysters and eat them in a simple and rough manner!

This restaurant's main seafood is raw oysters, and there are also unlimited supply of kiwei shrimps, scallops, etc. Roast chicken wings, beef, palm treasures, pork belly and various vegetables are all self-contained. The taste is great. Free cold dishes, desserts, snacks and fruits are also provided until you support the wall!

In addition to drinks, Oyster Hero's other delicacies are available in unlimited quantities! Super affordable and delicious! It is said that there will be a queue at night. Fortunately, we went late at noon and there weren't too many people.

Oyster Hero's desserts are also worth tasting and are all free. Personal taste recommends matcha pudding, which is refreshing and moisturizes your throat.

Remember that there are sweet fruits after the meal, happy.

After eating enough seafood, we continued to stroll around Chunxi Road. I accidentally discovered such a place, Chunxi Road Centenary Golden Street. Here is also the entrance wall opened by Shi Da back then.

Almost every city has the most prosperous and representative streets, but few have been prosperous for a century. Chunxi Road in Chengdu is an exception.

Jinhua Hall, built in 1914, was discovered. Shu embroidery Shu brocade is famous around the world. Chengdu is also known as Jinguan City. Jinhua Hall is named after the meaning of prosperity and brocade. It was once a trading place for ancient Shu embroidery.

A small street more than 100 meters long, with an architectural style that combines Chinese and Western. Tall arched orange roof, antique blue brick walls and floors, arched doors and windows, Western-style stained glass...

Peaceful and romantic, unique charm. She is like a silent record player at the beginning of the last century, singing softly about the prosperity of the market of that era.

Jinhua Pavilion connects Kejia Lane on Chunxi Road. Due to the architectural style of the Republic of China, this small street presents a peaceful and romantic style in the downtown area. It has also become a place for external photography for many photographers, and even become a place for some photo studios. An exterior location for photo shoots.

The unique geographical location destined Chunxi Road to become prosperous: in June 1924, construction of Xinma Road was started. After its completion in November, it was first named "Senwei Road". Later, it was named "Senwei Road" after the Tao Te Ching "," Everyone is bustling, like enjoying Tai Lao, like climbing the Chuntai ", and named the road" Chunxi ".

Silver buildings, department stores, traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine, glasses, ceramics, photography, candies, clocks, books, banks, newspapers, smoke shops, satin, cloth, stationery, teahouses, hotels, bathrooms, catering, cigarettes, tea, electrical materials, printing, transportation equipment and other shops have been opened on Chunxi Road, among which there are many time-honored brands, which are like shining marks, witnessing the prosperity of Chunxi Road along the way.

I just happened to meet you today: Classics and fashion have always been staged here, and history and modernity have always been here to complement each other. This is Chunxi Road, this is Centenary Golden Street, the unique Chunxi Road!

When you are tired from shopping, you need to find a place to rest and eat. This Deqi Braised Kebabs (Jianshe Store) is located at No. 1 to No. 33 Jianshe Lane, adjacent to the Shahe Campus of the University of Electronic Science and Technology. The store faces the street and has a large passenger flow.

I like the decoration of this restaurant very much. It has a bright red tone, gold characters and a blue wall dotted it, and the overall style is lively and fashionable. There is a stewing oven at the door, and you can see the waiter operating it through the window. The store is very hospitable, from the lobby manager to the waiter, are very professional, the introduction and explanation are in place, and the recommended dishes are also very suitable for the taste. During the meal, I came many times to ask if I needed anything and added tea in time.

The meat kebabs and vegetable kebabs are brought up after they are roasted, and are insulated with tinfoil baking trays and candle lamps, away from the traditional barbecue smoke environment. Several secret dips clearly state different eating methods in each category: soy sauce dipped in mutton and vegetables, plum sauce dipped in chicken and pork, and seafood sauce dipped in vegetarian vegetables. There are two types of dry dishes: very spicy chili noodles and slightly spicy and fragrant peanut noodles. I personally like the taste of plum sauce.

Fresh and tempting kebabs, seafood, meat, and vegetables are all in one go.

The finger-sucking rows here are very fragrant and have a good taste.

The cold shredded potatoes are a bit amazing, not only refreshing but also beautiful. After it is served, the waiter will use scissors to help cut it, which is easy to eat and very distinctive. The chicken wings are very delicious, tender and smooth. Mushrooms and colored peppers are also deeply in my heart. The waiter also recommended plum wine to be paired with grilled meat. It was very tiresome and worth recommending!

Friends are happy together, let's have a drink together and fully integrate into the atmosphere.

Chengdu Geometry Bookstore is located on Wangping Binhe Road, Chenghua District, close to the Funan River Trail. Take Metro Line 2 to Dongmen Bridge Station, and walk about 800 meters to Geomishu Bookstore Mengzhuiwan Branch.

Chengdu Geometry Bookstore is a large-scale composite bookstore with slow life culture that includes humanities and creativity. This bookstore hidden in the downtown area has three floors. All kinds of books are beautifully packaged and have a good texture. There are rows of chairs along the windows on the second floor for people to rest and read. They are surrounded by bursts of coffee aroma, which is rich and makes people indulge in studying attentively.

There are handicraft experiences, leather art, hand-painted oil paintings, handmade ceramics, etc.

Geometry Bookstore combines Chengdu characteristics. In addition to continuing the arched cave design characteristic of Geometry Bookstore, the overall decoration of the store incorporates a large number of local Chengdu elements-antique Baba Tea Eight Immortals Table, Taishi Chair, and bench.

Geometry Bookstore is also a pet-friendly store. You can bring your favorite pets to the bookstore to select your favorite books, pick interesting items, drink special drinks, or spend a leisurely time in the hand-making area.

Tea seat by the window: A simple square table and old-fashioned seat, which is transparent for reading, viewing and viewing beautiful women: )

Cave style: Simple lime wall holes wrap around the spiral staircase, and top line geometry highlights the bookstore's naming.

Warm reminder: There are many people who come to bookstores to check in and take photos nowadays. It is recommended to avoid weekends.

I have eaten a lot of delicious food in the past few days when I came to Chengdu, and I have seen more environment. Sometimes I feel that there is nothing new, but the fish husband fish and pebble fish hot pot (Zhiming Road Direct Store) I went to caught my eyes. Bright, with a simple atmosphere of returning to the original flavor of the food.

Walking into this Fisherman, Fish and Cobblestone Fish Hot Pot Restaurant located on Zhimin Road, your eyes lit up with mottled brick walls and wooden beams, fishing nets, bamboo hats, coir coats, peppers, corn... and hanging on the wall. Old photos and stickers highlight the original and simple fisherman style.

A small square table, wooden bench and bamboo chair, with a pebble pot in the middle, and a rotatable wooden turntable around it, on which various snacks, cold dishes, snacks, specialty kimchi, etc. are placed.

There are three types of pot bottoms. We choose the classic red pot and freshly killed Jiangtuan fish. The three male waiters served up an iron pot filled with hot pebbles, fish and hot oil, and shouted together: "Stone comes to work", which is not only unique but also interesting.

Then put the fish meat into a pebble pan, add the scalding oil seasoning into the pan, and the aroma of the seasoning wafts out with the squeaking sound of oil. Cover the lid, put a timer on the stove and simmer for 3 minutes. Start the pan according to the taste of the guests. Mix lightly spicy, medium spicy, and spicy soups with the original soup and put them on the plate, and the spicy and fresh flavor will come to your face.

The fish is tender and tender, and the soybeans in the seasoning soup are also very delicious. I also ordered a serving of beautiful frogs, which tasted equally delicious.

I especially like the kimchi made by Yufuzi. It is spicy and sweet, and it is very refreshing! The waiter also sent an apron and hair circle, and the service was very considerate!

At the entrance of Dachuan Lane, rows of golden brackets formed by vertical and horizontal grids are erected. Some are made into photo walls to display old photos of the neighborhood donated by community residents; some are put into drawers and open them to see old objects donated by residents, arousing nostalgic memories; there are also "echo walls" and tourist message areas where old Chengdu accents are recorded...

Through renovation, old streets and alleys will be revitalized.

Here, artists deliberately paint on the street, and citizens and tourists drink tea and enjoy paintings. They can also buy paintings and go home after leaving...

There are also more than 10 light food restaurants, bars, etc. in the Paisan Gallery Art District to facilitate tourists.

Pisan Gallery Art District is also a key project of "Night Tour of Jinjiang". During the day, it is the original gallery art district and at night, it is the art night market, where you can taste Jinjiang.

Meeting you in Chengdu is the luck of my life, and holding hands in Hejiang Pavilion is the happiness of my life...
.

Speaking of Sichuan food, it must be a long topic.

Sichuan cuisine is one of the four major cuisines in China. It is famous overseas for its spicy taste. It is known as "Food in China, Taste in Sichuan" and enjoys the reputation of "Cooking Paradise". It has a wide variety of rich local specialties and snacks, with endless changes in taste and fragrance at home and abroad.

Chengdu's diners are extremely popular. Diners come in an endless stream every day. Of course, if you go late, you have to queue up.

Many tourists specially take taxis here to eat for it. In fact, this restaurant is very close to Xinnanmen Subway Station, just a few dozen meters away.

The restaurant's facade is not very big. The waiter greeted them to the second floor. What came into view were some bamboo containers. Many Chengdu dialects were printed on the red walls, and the surrounding picture frames presented different views of Chengdu.

There are many guests in the lobby on the second floor, which is a bit stuffy in the middle of winter.

A pot of tremella sherry soup is really filled with a traditional old thermos water bottle. It is full of nostalgia. The soup is delicious and moistens your throat.

This dish is called beef offal dipping sauce with fried dough sticks. The name of the dish is a bit awkward and the dish is quite innovative. Beef offal is also relatively refreshing. You can eat fried dough sticks dipped in sauce, or you can also eat fried dough sticks alone. It feels better to have dry mouth, but it does not match the name of the dish.

This rose-garlic-scented lotus root box is also an innovative dish. The chef took out a "fairy" rose from a warm water bottle and asked us to pat it with our hands. The rose petals were crisp and fell on the lotus root on the plate. It feels good. This may be the origin of the dish's name. Let's not talk about the taste, but this creativity that ordinary people can't imagine is very novel!

Crystal shrimp baked vermicelli: This is my favorite dish. It's a little like ants climbing the tree. Finally, shrimp is added. It is very delicious and has a good taste. It can also be used as a staple food. It also depends on this dish for the meal. Recommended tasting!

The iron pot Kong dry rice has bacon, potatoes, etc. added to it. You can eat more of what you like. After eating, go out for a walk as usual and check in to a bookstore--

Fangsuo Bookstore is located at No. 8 Shamao Street, Jinjiang District, Chengdu City, covering an area of about 4000 square meters. The location is relatively secluded, it is located in Shop No. M68 - 70 on the first floor of the basement of Tai Koo Li. Business hours: 10:00 - 22:00

Fangsuo is not just a bookstore, but an integrated cultural and creative space covering books, aesthetics, clothing, coffee, fashion goods and exhibition space.

The design of the studio is similar to a simple industrial space, with rough and simple walls and orange lights. The entire space is empty and densely arranged with all kinds of books, making people feel like they can calm down as soon as they walk in!

Of course, many people don't really come here to read and buy books, but to take photos. This place has gradually become a check-in place for Internet celebrities. However, whether it is taking photos, reading books or drinking coffee, the place is an elegant and comfortable paradise: holding a novel, ordering a cup of coffee, and you can sit in your chair and enjoy the relaxing and beautiful atmosphere of the afternoon.

Opening a book is a memory and a journey.

There is a saying that is well said: Either you read or travel, your body and soul are always on the road! Yes, we are reading, we are reading on the road, we leave our body and soul on the road, and we use our journey to witness the memories of our lives.

Leave the place. We continued to wander around Tai Koo Li until night fell. In terms of catering in Taikoo Li, Michelin-starred restaurants Din Taifeng and Zhengdou, as well as KABB, Blue Frog, New Element, etc. have opened stores. There is something to eat, buy, and see. You won't feel bored staying here all day. There are many restaurants with elegant environment in the business district, and the business is very prosperous. For example, Chaimen 'er, who is always queuing up, or the fishing market, which is packed every day.

When you come to Chengdu, of course, you have to go to Internet celebrity Jiyu·Thai Seafood Hotpot Restaurant to check in!

There are really many people in line, so be sure to get your number early, get your number early, get your number early! Tell important things three times!

Jiyu Taikoli Store is located in Jingrong, East Street. It has a total of three floors. Glass screens divide the dining area and the environment is very elegant. The waiter brother and sister have all received professional training, are enthusiastic, courteous, professional and meticulous, and the entire dining process makes you feel comfortable and satisfied.

I ordered the set meal for two at the bottom of the pot and seafood. The soup base was made with coconut juice and added to the spice bag. The taste was fresh and rich in aroma. The white soup was very delicious, so I couldn't help but pour a bowl first.

There are two platters of various seafood and fresh vegetables. Watching the fresh shrimps change colors in the coconut soup, it is really exciting to your mouth! The little sister helped us warm and peeled shrimps. The waiter who delivered the dessert came to ask if we wanted more desserts later. The service was really good.

Recommend some particularly delicious dishes. Thai Crispy Shrimp: Crispy, fragrant and refreshing. With a special chili noodle seasoning stuck on it, the shrimp can be eaten until it doesn't spit out any dregs at all.

Litchi shrimp balls: Put the shrimp on the outside and wrap it in a layer similar to sago, and then fry it in a frying pan. After being taken out of the pot, the appearance is as tempting as bright and dripping lychee. Eat it while it is hot. It is a specialty snack that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a beautiful and interesting appearance.

The cakes and fruit drinks below are also worth tasting. Not only are they outstanding in appearance, but they are also delicious, sweet but not greasy.

What's even better is that you can provide an unlimited number of high-value snacks and desserts after ordering the set meal, such as sparkling wine, rabbit pudding, fried chicken steak, seafood fried rice, pineapple fritters, yogurt, sago dew, plum jelly, biscuit balls, etc., are all delicious things worth experiencing.

The key point is that these are all free to eat. They are so affordable!

In Chengdu, you can take away these cute pandas, jewelry, backpacks, bracelets, masks, etc. There are many such cultural and creative products. Pandas are representatives of Chengdu, so it would be nice to take them home as a souvenir.

Friends who like to collect postcards can go to the Panda Post Office and write a handwritten note for themselves or a friend to share your state of mind at the moment.

Chengdu's Jasmine Tea is also very famous. You can bring a few bags to your family and colleagues to taste together.

Sichuan opera facial makeup is also an interesting souvenir.

In addition, if conditions permit, pack a bag of "Mom Rabbit Heads" and taste them on the return train!

Chengdu's subway transportation is relatively convenient, and the airport and railway station can quickly and conveniently reach the city.

Chengdu Cultural Tourism Bus has direct buses to scenic spots, traveling to and from famous scenic spots such as Wuhou Temple, Jinli, Kuanzhai Alley, and Panda Base. You can use your mobile phone to purchase tickets online.

For example, it costs three yuan per person to ride from Jinli to Kuanzhai Alley. It is very convenient to travel directly to the entrance of the scenic spot without stopping at other stops.
