Chengdu is said to be a city that you don't want to leave when you come. Facts have proved that I also like it very much.
Chengdu my country is the central and western city with the largest number of foreign consulates and the largest number of international routes. In 2015, Chengdu was approved and upgraded to an important national high-tech industrial base, trade logistics center and comprehensive transportation hub, and an important central city in the western region. This time with our yearning for delicious food, let's go for a walk together...
1. From Jinli to Kuanzhai Alley, trace the traces of old Chengdu
There is a saying that Jinli is Chengdu's version of the "Qingming Festival Shanghe Tu". It is a spiritual station for experiencing romance and leisure, and a charming neighborhood for experiencing the culture of the Three Kingdoms and Chengdu folk customs.
Legend has it that Jinli was once one of the oldest and most commercial streets in the history of Western Shu. It was famous nationwide as early as the Qin, Han and Three Kingdoms periods. Today's Jinli relies on the Wuhou Temple in Chengdu, with the spirit of the Qin, Han and Three Kingdoms as its soul, the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties as its exterior, and the folk customs and folk customs of western Sichuan as its content, expanding the extension of the culture of the Three Kingdoms.
Jinli relies on the Wuhou Temple, and "worshiping Wuhou and soaking in Jinli" has become one of the most appealing slogans for Chengdu tourism.
Jinli is Jinguan City. Jin--Chang Qu's "Huayang State Chronicles: Shu Chronicles":"The prefecture seized the county's literature as the state's school, and the county also built literature on the east side of the south bank road of Yili Bridge. There are women's walls, which lead to the west city, so it is the brocade palace. Brocade workers weave brocade, and when washing it, it will be bright, but when other rivers are not good, so it is called Jinli." Later, Jinli was used as the name of Chengdu.
Compared with the man-made landscapes of many old bottles and new wines in China, Jinli is completely grassroots, local and home-grown. The shops sell chopsticks, tea leaves, lanterns, silk quilts and local specialties. The delicacies in the restaurant include Zhang Fei beef, San Dapao, and Fat Sausage Noodles. Each cup is for the taste. It is not fancy or gimmicks. It is about benefits.
There are also craftsmen's toys. Making clay figurines, turning sugar paintings, and buying paper-cuts are all things that contain childhood interests. Nostalgia is also a nostalgia for the simple joy of childhood. The colorful lanterns and coverings on a street are a big custom and are for a lively scene. The most eye-catching ones on the street are those Chengdu fans who make people miss enthusiastically. They were chewing melon seeds and playing cards in the bar, drinking foreign wine, and still speaking soft Chengdu dialect.
In this way, the people of Chengdu strolled around Jinli leisurely. Nostalgic people had their emotions exported, people who loved to eat satisfied their appetites, and Jinli presented a scene of the world.
If Jinli can feel the wind and rain of the Three Kingdoms, then the wide and narrow alleys will slowly take on the flavor of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and even the subway station will have this flavor!
In the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi (1718), after putting down the Jungar Rebellion, more than a thousand soldiers were selected to garrison Chengdu, and Mancheng was built on the basis of Shaocheng at that time. In the early years of the Republic of China, the city manager at that time changed "hutong" to "alley." In the 1980s, Kuanzhai Alley was included in the "Chengdu Historical and Cultural City Protection Plan". In 2003, Kuanzhai Alley Street officially appeared in the world's lexicon.
After the Revolution of 1911, Zhao Erfeng, the governor of the Qing Dynasty, later handed over power and demolished the city wall of Shaocheng. Some high-ranking officials and dignitaries came here to build residences and private houses. Yu Youren, Tian Yongyao, Li Jiayu, Yang Sen, Liu Wenhui and others successively settled here. Chiang Kai-shek also came here, allowing these ancient buildings to be preserved. In the early years of the Republic of China, the city manager at that time changed "hutong" to "alley."
People who come to Sichuan from other places also praise Chengdu's superb ear-picking skills."Going to Chengdu without soaking in a teahouse means going in vain, and going in a teahouse without digging out your ears means not coming." The ancient craft of picking ears is particularly common in wide and narrow alleys. However, I am afraid that I will break my ears, so I just have a look. You can watch the video on my Douyin. Douyin number: Xiao Xize
The overall spatial style of the renovated Kuanzhai Alley is relatively complete, continuing the layout of Kuanzhai Alley in Western Sichuan during the Qing Dynasty. The street belongs to the northern Hutong streets and alleys in terms of shape, and its main feature is the "fish backbone"-shaped road pattern. This pattern is convenient for street residents to manage spontaneously and lays the tone for a quiet and leisurely life.
The wide and narrow alleys are slowly integrated into the western Sichuan folk houses from the barracks dormitories. The harsh western Sichuan style courtyard shape inside the residential houses is also basically preserved. Building components such as window sashes and bird hanging poles reproduce the charm of old Chengdu in detail.
Wide and narrow Alley: A nostalgic area with an old face...
Perhaps many people are now familiar with Chengdu without a song."Chengdu" from Zhao Lei, the Yulin Road Bistro in the song, has now become an "Internet celebrity".
There are a lot of people queuing up to enter the tavern, all for the sake of their strong "feelings"!
Compared with places such as Chunxi Road in Jinli, Yulin Road seems much quieter, but the tavern on Yulin Road where Zhao Lei is famous is crowded. I thought they were all here to take photos, but I didn't expect it to be here to eat and sit...
2. Global Center VS Chunxi Road, a modern Chengdu
On the inner side of the Ring Expressway, close to the highway, located in the core area of the southward development of the center of Chengdu City, there is a New Century Global Center. This is a major project determined by the Sichuan Province and Chengdu City governments to build a modern pastoral city in the world. The main building is designed with "flowing melody" and is also the largest single building in the world.
New Century Global Center is a huge urban complex consisting of three main bodies: New Century Global Center, New Century Contemporary Art Center and Central Square.
The New Century Global Center covers an area of about 1300 acres, has a total construction area of about 1.76 million square meters, the main plane size is about 500 meters ×400 meters, and the main height is about 100 meters. It is a multi-functional building integrating entertainment, exhibitions, business, media, shopping, and hotels. After completion, it will become an entertainment paradise, shopping paradise, leisure paradise and food paradise in Chengdu City.
Next to the Global Center is Jincheng Square. The square covers an area of 800 acres and consists of dream music fountains and roadside fountains. There are 17 types of fountain themes. The water design is rich and colorful, including the magnificent "Wentian"; the cheerful rhythm of "Waves Rippling"; the majestic "Water Dance World"; the luxurious and elegant "Mood for Love", etc.
Seeing this "spinning monster", a sentence sounded in my ear,"Hello everyone, I am a spinning monster. Children, come and sit on me." Hahaha.
The avant-garde shape of the New Century Global Center building is a visually shocking abstract work of art that is unforgettable and allows world-class art buildings to take root in Chengdu.
When you arrive in Chengdu, you usually check in on Chunxi Road, so let's take a walk again this time.
Take the subway to IFS near Chunxi Road. Because the sun was too poisonous, I went down to the basement level and waited for tea.
Although there is a saying of "Centenary Chunxi", Chunxi Road was built by warlord Yang Sen in 1924. Initially, Chunxi Road in Chengdu City was named "Senwei Road" because of Yang Sen's title "General Senwei." Later, it was renamed Chunxi Road after the allusions from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching":"Everyone is bustling, like enjoying Tailao, like climbing Chuntai."
Chunxi Road is a famous commercial pedestrian street in Chengdu. It is also the center of Chengdu CBD. In fact, it is very suitable to come for a walk at night...
3. Food tasting, this time only the most unique ones are recommended
Chengdu is a city with many delicious foods. I have recommended many restaurants to everyone before, but many of them are quite similar. This time, based on my personal experience in visiting restaurants, I only recommend the most distinctive one I ate during this trip: Bang 'a Hanbo Bo Chicken (Tianfu Third Street Store)
Chengdu, a city that exudes laziness everywhere, and this Bang Ahan Bobo Chicken (Tianfu Third Street Store) is the epitome of this temperament.
This is a restaurant that combines the flavor of the market with the melody of literature and art just right.
The simple wooden building, set off by soft lighting and golden draperies, is extremely Chinese elegance and Western romance; the waiter always smiles on his face, is on call when needed, and has strong execution power.
The dishes here are rich and authentic. The sweetness of rice, the freshness of chicken, the delicious drinks, and the rich variety of skewers are all very tempting delicacies.
It is worth mentioning that all the food here is very large and very affordable. The average person is very full at 40.
The location of this store is very good. It is a 6-8 minute walk from Exit A of Tianfu Third Street Subway Station. This should be the place where Chengdu locals like to eat, so it has the most local characteristics. Many outsiders can find it, Bang Ahan Bo Chicken (Tianfu Third Street Store). I believe it will be familiar to every Chengdu local, and there will be a queue for every meal.
Because of the word of mouth passed down over the years, many foreign tourists have also come in droves. As a result, the business of Bang Ahan Bobo Chicken (Tianfu Third Street Store) has become very popular, but it is worth it to queue up to eat the most authentic and delicious Chengdu cuisine, why not!
Before entering the store, I was attracted by the elegant dining environment at the entrance. After entering the store, I saw various classical decoration styles, and the elegant atmosphere of literature and ink came to my face.
Although business here is also good, it can be said to be a quieter place compared to the crowded crowds in the narrow alleys.
"Cleanliness" is "Cleanliness", but the taste is indeed very good. Moreover, the owner of this store will also ask customers if they want them to be slightly spicy or medium spicy, so friends who can't eat spicy food don't have to worry.
In addition to various delicious foods, there are two very distinctive ways to eat in the store:
1. Add ice skewers. The skewers with ice cubes have a unique flavor; the skewers with ice are the bowl chicken of Bang Ahan. The classic red oil flavor and qualified rattan pepper flavor here make people unable to extricate themselves; You can freely choose dishes and mix them with them, and you can start in 180 seconds. Come, come!
2. Break off the signature, break off 30 roots for 10 yuan, 60 roots for 30 yuan, and 100 roots for 100 yuan. Eat with your strength; and you can give you a cup of "Undivided Thoughts" drink by shooting a video on the spot.
Unlock novel and delicious ways to eat, and it feels good!
The contemporary tables, chairs and decoration can always increase people's appetite and suit the scene. The most important thing is that the dishes are delicious and unique.
These new ways to eat delicious food mentioned above have all benefited from the continuous innovation of the boss. If you come to Chengdu, Bang Ahan Bobo Chicken (Tianfu Third Street Store) will definitely have food that suits your taste waiting for you.
Because this is also a place that locals in Chengdu often go to, this time, let's be authentic "Chengdu people" and smart tourists to taste this must-live food together...
