Chengdu: 5 Must-See Places 🐼 Chengdu is a city where street food steams on every corner, pandas munch on bamboo just steps from the center, and old neighborhoods sit side by side with modern bridges. Here are five spots that give you a true sense of the city. 1. Chunxi Road – the pulse of modern Chengdu 🛍️ The city's main shopping street is also the best place to observe local life. It has it all: luxury boutiques next to street vendors, young people in hanfu dressed in front of giant screens, the smell of spicy hot pot wafting from every alleyway. How to get there: Take the metro to Chunxi Road Station (Lines 2 or 3) – you'll emerge right onto the street. My route It's best to arrive late in the evening – around 5 or 6 pm, when the advertisements light up and the street truly comes alive. Start at the central intersection near the golden statue and head towards Taikoo Li, an open-air shopping district with bamboo facades and stunning architecture. Practice ∙ 🕐 Evening is the best time: neon, crowds, atmosphere ∙ 📸 Photograph the intersection from above, from the pedestrian bridge – the flow of people and lights are spectacular ∙ 🌶️ Be sure to try the roadside dandanmian or cold noodles right here 2. Paqiang Panda & Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda – home to pandas 🐼 One of the few times a tourist destination fully lives up to expectations. The pandas are real, there's plenty of space, and if you time your visit right, you'll see them active, not sleeping. Getting there: Take bus #198 from Zhaojiesi metro station (Line 3) – about 20 minutes. A taxi from the center is ~30–40 yuan. Entrance: ~90 yuan. Worth every jiao. My route Arrive exactly at opening time—8:00 AM. The pandas feed in the morning and are really moving. By 10:00 AM, most are already asleep in positions that are hard to distinguish from stuffed pandas. Start with the adult panda enclosures, then go to the cub section—there's a separate line, but it's worth it. Practice ∙ 🕐 Opening at 8:00 AM is the only right time ∙ 🌿 Take a map at the entrance: the area is large and it's easy to get lost ∙ 📵 Don't use flash photography—it's prohibited and unnecessary everywhere ∙ ☀️ Weekdays are preferable: on weekends, the lines at the children's enclosures are long 3. Anshun Bridge (Viuyan Bridge)—a bridge that has become a stage 🌉 This old covered bridge over the Jinjiang River is simultaneously a restaurant, an observation deck, and a spot for an evening promenade. The concept sounds strange, but it works perfectly. How to get there: Walk from Chunxi Road—about 10 minutes along the river. My route During the day, it's a good spot for photos with views of the river and embankment. In the evening, it's a completely different story: the bridge is illuminated, musicians play, and locals come here just to sit. Go inside and climb to the top level—the views of both banks of the Jinjiang River are excellent. Practice ∙ 🕐 Evening after 7:00 PM—the bridge is illuminated and immersed in a unique atmosphere ∙ 📸 Shoot from the embankment below: the reflection of lights on the river is one of the city's best night spots ∙ 🍵 You can dine right on the bridge—the views make up for the tourist prices 4. Jinli Old Street—an old quarter with character 🏮 Reconstructed historic street
