Chengdu FoodChengdu snacks have a long history, and there are countless delicacies all over the streets, rich in local characteristics. Hot pot, snacks, skewers... These are like Sichuan cuisine that is famous all over the country. In the treasury of our country's culinary technical heritage, it occupies a fairly important place. For Chengdu natives, food has long been an indispensable part of life. If you come to Chengdu and don't go shopping and eat some food, you will inevitably feel like you are entering Baoshan and returning empty-handed. From all kinds of small noodles to hand-made dumplings, from cakes and glutinous rice balls to fine snacks at banquets, from cold and cold food hot soups, from pan-frying oil to steaming and baking, all kinds of fancy delicacies are sweet, salty, sour and spicy. Whether it is traditional food or modern popular food, I think the preservation and innovation of Chengdu people's food production methods is one of the reasons why Chengdu cuisine has endured.
The first smell you smell when you arrive in Chengdu must be the smell of hot pot. Hot pot is definitely indispensable in the lives of Chengdu people, and it is also the first image of Chengdu by outsiders. In the eyes of Chengdu people, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a hot pot. Hot pot restaurants of all sizes compete for beauty, each with its own merits. It is no exaggeration to say that if you take a map of Chengdu and click on a few landmarks, you may hit several hot pot restaurants. The spicy and mellow pot bottom is the essence of authentic Chengdu hot pot, and the taste evolves from a single spicy flavor to mandarin duck hot pot, three-flavor, four-flavor hot pot, as well as medicinal hot pot and fish head hot pot with nourishing functions.
When it comes to Chengdu, we think of not only hot pot, but also a kind of food skewers similar to "hot pot", although skewers are also a form of hot pot, but in Chengdu skewers are more popular than traditional hot pots. In recent years, skewers of incense have left Sichuan all over the country, and "Malatang" is also its variant. We can see the figure of "Malatang" all over the country, whether it is in the streets and alleys or shopping malls, etc., especially next to the school, there will be several stores in a row, but when we really come to Chengdu, you will find that the "Malatang" here is very different from the Malatang we eat in our city.
In every alley and street in Chengdu, you can encounter a lot of food and interesting snacks anytime and anywhere. As a foodie's paradise, there is no day and night that you can't finish eating. It is said that a city that understands food understands life better. Eat well in Chengdu, Chengdu people live comfortably, and the spicy taste in the streets and alleys is full of fireworks in the world. A city of food, the details hide people's care and carving of food. In turn, food continues to soothe people's anxiety and loneliness, so that they can maintain their inner fullness in three meals a day.
Chengdu Streets and Alleys
Whether you are traveling or staying at home, "shopping" is definitely indispensable. "Shopping", "eating and shopping", even if you are lying in bed, I believe most people will pick up their mobile phones from time to time to visit the virtual "street" on the Internet. For the editor who loves to travel, "shopping" in every city is even more essential. Let's talk about the most famous "three streets" in Tianfu Chengdu. They are the "most commercial", the "most down-to-earth", and the "most literary"!
1. Chunxi Road
As the saying goes: "If you don't go to Chunxi Road, you don't come to Chengdu!" "When it comes to Chengdu, we must mention Chunxi Road, I believe many people are impressed by the "giant panda" climbing the building on IFS. As a landmark of Chengdu, Chunxi Road is not only the most prosperous comprehensive business circle in Chengdu, but also a kind of people's feelings for Chengdu. She is Chengdu's fashion bulletin board, Chengdu's pop culture station, and synonymous with Chengdu's charm. In 2005, Chunxi Road, known as the first commercial street in the central and western regions, the first merchant highland in the central and western regions, and the golden street of Chengdu, was selected into the top three of the "China Commercial Street Rankings", second only to Hong Kong and Nanjing Road in Shanghai. Outsiders travel to Chengdu, if they don't visit Chunxi Road, it will be a big pity!
2. Jinli Ancient Street
There is also a icing on the cake in Chengdu, a historical district that "creates something out of nothing", which is Jinli Ancient Street located on the east side of Chengdu Wuhou Temple. If you have a friend in Chengdu, he will definitely say: "Don't go, there is nothing to go around in Jinli, Jinli food is for outsiders." "If you are a foreigner traveling to Chengdu, then you must not listen to your friends, you must go to Jinli Ancient Street to take a look. Because it is the epitome of old Chengdu, the most "down-to-earth" place, and the "most Chengdu" place.
Legend has it that Jinli was once one of the oldest and most commercial streets in the history of Western Shu, and was famous throughout the country as early as the Qin, Han and Three Kingdoms periods. There are scattered blue tile buildings, rich and authentic Chengdu food, profound and pure ancient Shu culture, and simple and lovely Chengdu residents, during the stroll, you will have a feeling of traveling through time and space. Jinli Ancient Street solidifies the influence of the culture of the Three Kingdoms into a living folk market, and the Wuhou Temple complements each other, making the solemn and solemn Prime Minister's ancestral hall also show the vivid atmosphere of the times everywhere, known as the "Chengdu version of the Qingming River Map".
3. Compared
with the "down-to-earth" Jinli, the wide and narrow alleys are more "petty bourgeois and more literary".In fact, it may not be appropriate to say that Kuanzhai Alley is a street, because it is an area, which is a bit different from the street in our impression. Kuanzhai Alley is a relatively large-scale ancient street of the Qing Dynasty left over from Chengdu, consisting of wide alleys, narrow alleys, well alleys and antique courtyards with green and blue bricks and tiles in between. I believe that every tourist who travels to Chengdu will come here to check in!
It is said to be "the most literary" because its existence is the restoration of the collective memory of the old city of Chengdu and the reshaping of the soul of the city. Look at the old man drinking tea and playing chess in the shade of the trees, and the tourists sitting on bamboo chairs enjoying picking their ears, and there are luxuriously decorated mid-to-high-end restaurants and bars...... Here, you can see the mottled years recorded by ancient buildings, and you can also feel the modern fashion sense in the depths of the courtyard. Here, you can slow down, relax, and experience the perfect blend of ancient and modern, as well as the past and present of time.
Chengdu Museum
1. Chengdu Museum
Chengdu Museum is located on the west side of Tianfu Square in the center of Chengdu, adjacent to Sichuan Provincial Library, Sichuan Art Museum and Sichuan Science and Technology Museum, covering an area of about 17 acres, with a total construction area of 65,000 square meters, making it the largest comprehensive museum in Chengdu. Take the subway to Tianfu Square Station, follow the elevator to the ground square, and the black building on the west side is the Chengdu Museum. Going up the steps, you can see that the main building of the museum is divided into two parts: the south building is mainly an administrative area (for tourists to store luggage, etc.), and the underground is an academic lecture hall (multi-function hall); The north building is mainly an exhibition area, and the first floor is a hall, a screening hall and a temporary exhibition hall No. 1.
The Chengdu Museum is like a book, an encyclopedia about the city, which records the development and changes of this historical and cultural city in detail. The Sichuan Provincial Museum is also like a book, but it is not an encyclopedia exclusive to a certain city, it is an encyclopedia of this province, which records the development and changes of the Chengdu Plain in detail.
2. Sichuan Museum
Sichuan Museum is located in the Huanhuaxi Historical and Cultural Scenic Area of Chengdu, founded in 1941, then known as the Sichuan Museum, renamed the Western Sichuan Museum at the end of 1950, named the Sichuan Provincial Museum in 1952, and officially renamed the Sichuan Museum in 2009 with the completion of the new museum, which is the largest comprehensive museum in southwest China and a national first-class museum.
The museum currently has 14 exhibition halls, including calligraphy and painting, ceramics, bronzes, ethnic cultural relics, arts and crafts, Tibetan Buddhism, Ten Thousand Buddha Temple stone carvings, Zhang Daqian calligraphy and painting, Han Dynasty pottery and stone art, etc. 10 permanent exhibitions and 4 temporary exhibition halls for holding various temporary exhibitions, which comprehensively reflect the glorious history of Sichuan Bashu culture, with endless exquisite exhibits and strong regional cultural characteristics, making it occupy an important position in the national public museum.
3. Jinsha Site Museum
Jinsha Ruins is located at No. 2 Jinsha Ruins Road, Qingyang District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, is a Shang and Zhou Dynasty site, and important relics have been discovered including large building foundations, sacrificial areas, general residential sites, large cemeteries, etc., and unearthed many precious cultural relics such as gold, copper, jade, stone tools, ivory, lacquerware, as well as tens of thousands of pottery shards, tons of ivory, and thousands of wild boar tusks and antlers, which can be called the richest gold and jade unearthed in the world. The site with the densest density of ivory is also the ancient sacrificial relic with the longest duration, the most complete preservation, and the richest sacrificial relics and relics in our country.
The Jinsha site is a major discovery in the archaeological community, the first major archaeological discovery in China after entering the 21st century, and another major archaeological discovery in Sichuan after Sanxingdui, and was selected as one of the "Top Ten Archaeological Discoveries in China in 2001". It is the capital of the ancient Shu Kingdom, the center of ancient civilization in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River from the 12th century BC to the 7th century BC, about 3200-2600 years ago, advancing the history of the founding of Chengdu from 2300 years ago to about 3000 years ago.
Chengdu accommodation
travel is to go from your own boring place to other people's boring place. This trip to explore Chengdu is not only to find food and discover the differences in the city, but also to save more time to explore. So this time I chose to stay at Home Inn Hotel - Chengdu People's Park Metro Station Tianfu Square Branch. First of all, its geographical location is quite superior, located in the center of Chengdu in all directions, close to People's Park Station, and it is also quite convenient to go to various destinations. Secondly, every trip must not only have good food, but also live well, as one of the "rest assured hotels", various safety measures, absolutely peace of mind. So choosing Home Inn Business Hotel this time is also a habitual choice, and I believe that it can make me feel at home in an unfamiliar city.In addition, BTG Home Inn also launched a series of activities for Leyou Hotel in 17 cities in the summer, so don't miss it if you want to travel to various places~
