Things to do in Renshou

I have always heard about this reservoir and thought that it was only for the farmhouses next to the reservoir. It turned out to be a place for hiking and swimming. You can drive to the entrance of the scenic area, and there are many restaurants that can park for 20 yuan. There are fried small fish on the roadside (20.30 yuan, taste good but a little fishy), and smoked fish (100 yuan per catty, I didn’t buy it because I thought it was too expensive) If you want to go to the mountain, you need to take a boat (you can only go there by boat)! We went during the Chinese New Year. There were no big boats, only small boats pulled by manpower, and the round trip was 20 yuan per person. There were really a lot of people and we lined up for more than an hour. When you get to the island opposite, there will be people soliciting customers. You can choose to walk, motorcycle, or wild boar. Because we went up late, we took a wild boar (the van was really scary when I think about it now) and went directly to the temple on the top of the mountain for 60 yuan. There were only two of us at the time, so it would be cheaper if we could share with others. There is a white pagoda on the top of the mountain, and there is also a temple where you can burn incense. Baoen Temple is on the mountainside, and we met a driver halfway who took us there for 20 yuan. Inside Baoen Temple is the God of Wealth Temple. Going further inside, you can ask for divination. Asking for divination is to rejoice in the merits, and then take your number to the circulation office to exchange for divination paper (2 yuan per piece). The master said that there are no monkeys to see on this mountain. It costs 80 yuan per person to see the monkey island, and a private boat will take you there. In the end, we didn't go, but I heard that the monkeys there like to eat jelly. If you go, you can prepare in advance. Overall, it's good, climb the mountain, blow the wind, and burn incense. It's suitable for family to go together.

外地人第一次来，水街的夜景还是非常不错的，很久没看到这么漂亮的夜景了，小桥流水，亭台楼阁，连廊灯带，仙雾飘飘，相映成趣，古色古香，可见设计上是花了不少心思的，景区免费游览，晚上还有节目表演，挺适合走走逛逛，拍照打卡的，赞一个。

The Two Rivers Ferry is absolutely fantastic! The 15 yuan ticket is incredibly cost-effective! Here's a great route for families with kids: After visiting Jiefangbei and Kuixinglou, see Hongyadong during the day. If you're traveling with a 6-year-old and don't want to brave the crowds at Hongyadong at night, the stilted buildings during the day are just as beautiful. Afterward, take the Two Rivers Ferry to Danzishi, disembark, and explore Danzishi Old Street, Nanbin Road, and Xiahaoli. Then, take the light rail/bus or taxi back. The whole route is smooth and relaxing. The boat ride is novel and fun, and the kids especially loved it, remaining enthusiastic about exploring the shopping streets afterwards. At the pier, there's a large bowl of freshly cut watermelon for 10 yuan – watch it being cut right in front of you! It's sweet and refreshing. I highly recommend this route for families!

Wenshu Fang, nestled against the ancient Wenshu Monastery, exudes the rustic charm of western Sichuan folk customs amidst its blue bricks and gray tiles. I strolled leisurely here with my dog, wandering through bamboo paths and red-walled, green corridors; even he couldn't resist frolicking on the stone slabs. There's none of the hustle and bustle of trendy shops, only the jasmine fragrance wafting from teahouses and the gentle sounds of artisans hammering bamboo – the atmosphere is simply divine! Wenshu Fang is a hidden gem of a Chengdu food map! Just step outside and you can enjoy authentic "Dongzikou Zhang Lao Er" sweet water noodles, their sour, spicy, and savory flavors instantly awakening your taste buds. I squatted by the window and ordered a spicy hot pot for my dog, and he quietly devoured half the bowl! There's also freshly ground soy milk and ice jelly on the street corner; even my dog ​​couldn't resist licking the soy pulp clean from the rim of the bowl! Wenshu Fang is incredibly pet-friendly! I took photos with my dog ​​in front of the "Wenshu Fang" cultural and creative shop; he posed on the bluestone slabs against the backdrop of the ancient buildings with their upturned eaves – every snapshot looked like a masterpiece of traditional Chinese style. The shop also thoughtfully provided a water station for pets, so you don't have to worry about your pet getting thirsty.

🏛️ Chengdu Museum — A Wonderful Glimpse into Chengdu’s History & CultureA really interesting place to visit while in Chengdu, especially if you want to understand more about the city beyond its famous pandas and food. 😊The museum has a great collection showcasing Chengdu’s long history, culture, traditions and development. I especially enjoyed seeing the historical artefacts and learning about how Chengdu has changed through the centuries.The exhibits are well presented and the museum is spacious, clean and easy to explore. Even though I’m not usually someone who spends a lot of time in museums, I found this visit surprisingly enjoyable and informative.It’s also a nice place to escape the heat or rain for a while and take a slower, more relaxing break from sightseeing.Definitely worth a visit if you’re interested in history and culture. A good way to appreciate the story behind this fascinating city. ❤️You can drop by if you are planning to go to Tianfu Square area or Huang Cheng mosque area as this place is only in a blink away😊

We were very fortunate to have celebrity teacher Du Gang as our guide, and we avoided the peak admission period, so it wasn't crowded at all. Without a teacher's explanation, it's easy to miss the main points and rush through the exhibits. Teacher Du's explanation was very easy to understand, humorous, and focused. There were so many exhibits that we felt like we didn't have enough time. I hope to have the opportunity to hear Teacher Du's explanation again after the Sichuan Museum finishes setting up the exhibits from the Song Dynasty onwards.

My stay in Chongqing was fantastic! The hotel boasts a superb location, within walking distance of Eling No. 2 Factory and Liziba Viewpoint, making sightseeing incredibly convenient. The rooms were spotless and bright, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and the amenities were complete. The free parking was a great convenience for travelers with cars. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, making check-in quick and easy, and patiently answering all my questions. Overall, it offered excellent value for money and is a top choice for any trip. I would definitely choose this hotel again next time.

Perfect for a leisurely stroll, sampling street snacks, and experiencing Chengdu’s culture. We bought some of the tea pastry and tea leaves and shop for some panda souvenirs there. We have our lunch in one of the Sichuan cuisine restaurant in the narrow alley which the food is pretty good. There is a cat souvenir shop named Mao Mao Yao which sells lovely handmade ceramic cat product. We bought some fridge magnets before going back to our hotel.

I'd been there before and had a great impression. This time, on my second day in Chengdu, I chose Huanglongxi Ancient Town. Previously, I'd taken a bus from the Xin Nanmen Bus Station, but when I got there, they said the bus service had been cancelled. Not wanting to take the subway and transfer, I called a ride-hailing service. We encountered road construction and were stuck in traffic for almost an hour before finally being driven directly to the entrance of the ancient town. The fare was about 60-70 yuan. The ancient town wasn't as lively as before, and there weren't many tourists. After wandering around for a while, I felt it wasn't very interesting. I found a teahouse and had some very pleasant tea. The weather was neither too hot nor too cold, and the sunlight filtering through the leaves occasionally felt nice on my face. I checked the transportation back; it was either a long walk to the bus station to take a bus to the nearest subway station, Huilong, or I had to call a taxi. I hadn't expected the transportation to be so inconvenient, so I decided to call a taxi directly to Chunxi Road for some delicious food.
