This year, due to the epidemic, I was forced to stay at home for half a year, and I couldn't wait to take a trip every day. I accidentally swiped a photo of the Wuchazi Bridge at Hongqiao in Chengdu, so I immediately booked a ticket and took a trip at will.
The last time I came to Chengdu was five years ago. After taking a look at the guide, I realized that Chengdu had undergone earth-shaking changes. I couldn't help but visit the new business district and the brand new Internet celebrity photo spots. After staying in Chengdu for four days this time, in order to facilitate travel, I simply rented a Haval dog for a self-driving tour and checked in to many new photo spots. If you also want to take some unique photos, you might as well read down!

1. Wuchazi Bridge-Real Version of Mobius Ring
This is a trip to Chengdu. One of the most anticipated attractions is the Wuchazi Bridge. Once it was completed and opened this year, it immediately became the most popular check-in place.
Although the name of the bridge seems to be very down-to-earth, after the bridge is lit up at night, the unique lighting design and the "streamlined" beauty of the bridge are instantly presented, full of a sense of science fiction futuristic. At that time, the designer was inspired by the Mobius Ring, which would have the shape of an endless symbol ∞ if a drone was used overhead.
This is a pedestrian overpass, so vehicles cannot pass through. It is very suitable for hanging out here after dinner and enjoying the night view. The bridge is a bit far away from the city. It took us about 40 minutes to drive a big dog from Chunxi Road. Maybe it's too popular. Going to eight o'clock is a sea of people. There are many stalls on the bridge, so it's difficult to take photos without anyone. If you have enough time, it is recommended to go there around 12 p.m. There will be fewer people and the lights will remain on. The alternating light of yellow and white comes with a ten-level beauty effect. The original film is also very cool when it comes out straight.
Share with you several classic photo angles:
First, most of the bridge bodies can be photographed on the west pier, which is full of fantasy.
The second is the entrance from the upper bridge to the ground floor, where you can also photograph distant buildings.
Third, there is also a staircase in the middle of the bridge, but this is a popular check-in area and needs to be occupied as soon as possible.
?? Wear recommendations:
The bridge is full of futuristic sense. It is recommended that you wear some functional clothes or solid black and white colors. It will be easy to make large films.
?? How to get there:
You can search the Wuchazi Bridge, which is not convenient to get there by subway and bus. I suggest you drive your own car or take a taxi. There is a free parking lot under the bridge.
2. Jianshe Road Bridge Cave-Entering the Time Tunnel
It was already 12 o'clock after visiting the Wuchazi Bridge. The road was already empty, and driving was particularly enjoyable. After thinking about it, I decided to check in the bridge hole of the Time and Space Tunnel while there were few people on the way back.
Netizens call this place a time tunnel. It is actually just an inconspicuous bridge hole, but against the backdrop of the lights, it is indeed like walking into a tunnel through the capital. Every photo can be seen in large films of light and shadow!
As more people check in, the place has become more and more popular. Many people often come to take photos and check in. If you want to take photos without anyone, it is recommended that you can easily take photos without anyone after 23:00 p.m. By the way, there are two bridge holes in total. If there is anyone on one side, you can go and have a look on the opposite side.
The tunnel has warm yellow lights. Everyone pays attention to finding the position of the light and shadow, straighten the lens, and let the outline of the face and body best present in the lens, and you can shoot a perfect blockbuster.
?? Wear recommendations: It is recommended to wear black or white clothes, or cooler clothes. The reflection of light on the clothes will be very interesting.
?? Address: The bridge in front of Jianshe Road Fuli Pharmacy, the pedestrian tunnel under the bridge, and there are tunnels at both ends of the bridge.
3. Memory of Eastern Suburb-Taking a group of industrial blockbusters
I have always been interested in industrial-style buildings. I just found memories of the nearby eastern suburbs at the hotel and immediately drove here to have a look. This is the former site of the Chengdu State-owned Hongguang Electronic Tube Factory. Speaking of the older generation of Hongguang Electronic Tube Factory, it is estimated that few young people have heard of it. China's first black-and-white picture tube and the first projection picture tube were created here, which were considered objects of great historical significance at that time. Now it has been transformed into the current music park.
Walking around the park is full of office buildings, red brick factories, locomotives and railway tracks built with the aid of the former Soviet Union. It is full of nostalgia, and you can see a large area of industrial style with just a click.
Old buildings and graffiti can be seen everywhere in the park, turning it into a check-in spot for Internet celebrities. Walking on the road, you can often see Internet celebrity live singers and Hanfu photographers taking pictures here.
The Memory Corridor is also a good place to take photos and check in. If you want to find the marks of the old industrial era and feel the atmosphere of the old era, you must not miss this place. The display cabinet in Creative Street is full of design and super cute!
There are also various cultural and creative trend shops on both sides, which can shoot cool blockbusters at will.
Seeing that it was still early, we temporarily decided to go to the IBOX container base not far away. Looking at the colorful containers in the photos online, the effect should be good. I like the 360° panoramic image of the big dog very much. It is simply a savior for people like me who have difficulty reversing.
4. IBOX-Color Container Base
The two places are very close to each other. To be honest, perhaps due to too long time, the container has somewhat discolored and is not as spectacular as when it was first released. IBOX was very popular when it first came out in 2014. It was designed by the original team of BOXPARK in London, England, and a creative base composed of 22 containers.
However, as six years have passed, the appearance of the colorful containers of that time is not as gorgeous as it was then. Fortunately, there are still some shops, but there are almost no tourists who can take a few photos leisurely.
There was a pet shop in the park. The owner was walking his dog and couldn't help but play with the dog for a while.
5. Tai Koo Li-The Holy Land of Trend Street Photography
Speaking of Chengdu's most fashionable neighborhood, Taikoo Li must be indispensable. If you want to see good-looking little brothers and sisters, you're right to come here, especially on weekends. There are trendy people dressed up everywhere, such as skateboarding in Hanfu, boys shopping in high heels... Every street photo here is extremely popular, even abroad.
One thing I like about Taikoo Li is that it integrates ancient and modern times well. It has both fashion, trend and international brands, and Daci Temple, which has been around for more than 1600 years. The two are not abrupt together. When you are tired, you can find a teahouse to rest for a while.
The light in Taigu Li in the evening is very beautiful, so take a photo.
6. Bamboo Art Village-A paradise in the sea of bamboo
On the last day in Chengdu, I decided to drive a big dog to go around. Bamboo Art Village, Daoming Town, Chongzhou City is the location of bamboo weaving, a Chinese intangible cultural heritage. Chengdu is a blocked city. In order to avoid the morning rush hour, we even got up early and set out to watch a beautiful sunrise.
It takes about an hour to drive from Chengdu City. Because of the free time, you will get off the bus to have a look at the beautiful scenery you see along the way. The vegetation coverage rate around Chengdu is extremely high. Walking on the mountain paths, the air is full of fresh smell. In the afternoon, cicadas chirped everywhere in the forest, as if returning to childhood.
The road is all mountainous roads. Fortunately, the dog feels good overall driving. It is easy to speed up during climbing mountains and overtaking. The body roll is not obvious when cornering continuously. The entire chassis gives people a sense of security.
Soon, we arrived at the Daoming Bamboo Lane, which we were most looking forward to on this trip. The green tile roof was circular. This idea came from the infinite symbol ∞ of the Tai Chi diagram, which represented integration and infinity. I came here for aerial photography, and after shopping around, I found that it was actually very suitable for a weekend vacation.
Parking a big dog on a winding road is quite beautiful.
Daoming Zhuli is a restaurant every day, where you can eat or have afternoon tea. Generally, the average person is over 100. According to the staff, it is closed to the public after 5 p.m., so students who want to go are better off going during the day, and remember to make an appointment in advance if they go on weekends.
Entering the lobby, the entire building uses a lot of logs, bamboo art and floor-to-ceiling glass windows... Even indoors, the beautiful scenery outside the house is unobstructed, and the circular hollow out in the middle creates a Chinese landscape.
If you have enough budget, you can consider staying in Linli B & B behind the restaurant. Each room is a small single-family villa, scattered on the back mountain, a true portrayal of "the houses in the bamboo are deep". The design of the room echoes the bamboo culture of Bamboo Art Village. The exterior facades are handmade from bamboo and are full of texture. The room price is 2280 yuan/night.
In addition to such a B & B with a particularly beautiful building, you can also see various outdoor pastoral scenery in the village, as well as Ding Zhichu, Zunsheng Courtyard, Art Museum, Sanjing Academy, etc. You can stroll around slowly.
After coming out of Zhuyi Village, we saw that it was still early, so we decided to drive our big dog to take a look around. In September, when rice ripens, the rice fields on the roadside were golden, and Jay Chou's "rice fragrance" was floating in our minds. We immediately decided to stop here and take a nap.
Having lived in the city for a long time, I saw the rice fields in the fields and the fragrance of millet in the wind, and I felt like I had lived a life I longed for.
The appearance of the big dog's orange metal lacquer also looks very textured and has become a good prop for me to pose for, haha.
After leaving Zhuyi Village and returning to Chengdu to return the car, my trip to Chengdu has come to an end. Chengdu is really a city suitable for experiencing slow life and playing while eating. In the past few days, I have been driving my trendy toys. My new travel companion, Haval, checked in on many Internet celebrity attractions in Chengdu, and even had the urge to stay here for a while before leaving.
Next time if you want to travel to Chengdu and don't want to be restricted by public transportation, you may wish to consider driving yourself like I did!
