Here’s a guide to downtown Chengdu based on my visit:
🌆 Overview: Downtown Chengdu is a vibrant mix of modern skyscrapers and ancient traditions. It’s a dynamic area where you can explore shopping streets, cultural landmarks, and some of the best food in China.
🍜 Highlights: Don’t miss Kuanzhai Alley for its traditional architecture and delicious street food. Try the famous Sichuan hotpot at one of the many local restaurants. Tianfu Square is another must-see, with its iconic statue of Chairman Mao and beautiful fountains.
📸 Photography Tips: Capture the contrast between the towering modern buildings and the more traditional areas like Daci Temple. Early mornings or late afternoons provide the best lighting for city shots.
👟 What to Wear: Comfortable shoes are essential for exploring the busy streets and markets. Dress in layers, as Chengdu weather can be unpredictable, especially during rainy seasons.
