Chengdu's food culture and a large number of natural landscapes have attracted the attention of countless tourists. Let's introduce it in detail below.
a temple, an ancient bridge, an ancient street, the same feelings, different figures. Compared with Jinli, tranquility and simplicity, prosperity and liveliness are another legend of this city.

Skills
1. Chengdu is located in the southwest of China, the west of Sichuan Basin and the hinterland of Chengdu Plain, with flat terrain, criss-crossing river networks, rich products and developed agriculture. It has a humid subtropical monsoon climate and has enjoyed the reputation of "Land of Abundance" since ancient times. In summer, the temperature is high and the rain is abundant. Remember to bring all kinds of sun protection/rain gear.
2. Chengdu people love spicy food. If you can't eat spicy food, remember to order and tell the waiter clearly. People with weak gastrointestinal resistance and allergic constitution such as gastrointestinal tract and skin should carry qi-regulating, antiallergic and gastrointestinal drugs if they are caused by spicy food.
3. There are many mosquitoes in some places in the scenic spot, so remember to bring anti-mosquito drugs.
on this trip to Chengdu, I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton Chengdu, which is located in the cultural center of Chengdu. The geographical location is unique, adjacent to Tianfu Square, about 15 minutes' drive from S Shopping Center, Taikooli, Kuanzhai Lane and Jinli Ancient Street.

Explore the oldest street in the history of Western Shu
Visit Wuhou from the heart; Visiting Jinli is like waking up in a dream. Jinli is a part of Chengdu Wuhou Temple Museum (Three Kingdoms Historical Area, Jinli Folk Area and West Area). Legend has it that Jinli was once one of the oldest and most commercial streets in the history of western Shu, and it was famous throughout the country as early as the Qin and Han Dynasties. Now, Jinli covers an area of more than 31,111 square meters, with a building area of more than 14,111 square meters and a total length of 551 meters, integrating tourism, shopping, leisure and entertainment.
Li Jing relies on Wuhou Temple in Chengdu, takes the spirit of Qin and Han Dynasties as the soul, takes the style of Ming and Qing Dynasties as the appearance, and takes the folk customs of western Sichuan as the content, which expands the extension of the culture of the Three Kingdoms. In this street, the essence of Chengdu's slow life is condensed: there are teahouses, inns, restaurants, bars, stages, snacks, handicrafts and local products, which fully show the unique charm of the three kingdoms culture and Sichuan folk customs.
Some shops on both sides sell some tea leaves, Shu brocade, ink paintings and local products, and occasionally you can see performances by folk artists in special stalls, where there are rich traditional folk arts. Here, you can enjoy the ancient Shu brocade, bamboo weaving and lantern shadows in China intangible culture, and you can also experience the most authentic Sichuan folk customs: sugar blower, Tang Hua, clay sculpture, paper cutting and so on. Their inheritance and continuation is a kind of cultural intersection and the intersection of the past and the present.
Walking in the ancient street of Jinli, the winding courtyard, the streets and lanes on both sides echo the lakes, lotus ponds and stone bridges on the waterfront, and restaurants and shops are everywhere, rippling with water waves, which has a unique flavor. The buildings on both sides are antique, the bamboo forests are green, the flowers are in full bloom and the air is filled with fragrance.
In an antique house, there is a gurgling stream under the window, and the window sill is covered with colorful paintings and calligraphy, which is quite scholarly.
I can't put it down when I look at all kinds of interesting ornaments with Chengdu characteristics.
Besides all kinds of fun things, you can also find all kinds of folk snacks in Jinli: kebabs, alms chicken, buckwheat noodles, camellia oleifera, buckwheat noodles, burnt beef patties and so on. You can find a shop to sit down and taste slowly, or you can eat while walking and enjoy the comfort of the wind.
The brocade at night is bustling, and compared with the daytime, it looks different: colorful, brightly lit and antique. It turns out that brocade will show amazing side in different periods.
Under the eaves of the street, there are a row of antique tables and chairs, pottery bowls and cups, and lotus flowers are floating in a large stone jar.
The lantern with the word "wine" hung high, and we walked into the night, quietly listening to the songs of the resident singers and singing high-pitched songs. A guitar stripped off the real world.
in music, you may hear the footsteps of walkers, the vicissitudes of life, and the journey of the stars and the sea. Our faith will never die, and our dream has always been
In addition to the unique cultural charm of this city, there are also delicious foods that people can't forget. Snacks in the streets and lanes of Chengdu must have become the yearning of many people. A string, a barbecue, a hot pot, a Thai seafood, etc. I don't want to leave as soon as I get here. When I came to Chengdu, Zhimin Road, a well-known online celebrity dining street, concentrated various brands of online celebrity shops, such as roadside mala Tang, Chengdu diners and fishermen.
I had to come to an online celebrity string shop in Chengdu: Mala Tang on the roadside, located at No.48 Zhimin Road (exit B of Xinnanmen Station of Metro Line 3). At first, I thought it was a roadside stall, only to find that it seemed to be back in the 1981 s.
the interior decoration is very nostalgic. The murals all over the wall are graffiti of street view. A small blue bench with a small table that is not high. There is a small gas stove on the table, and a small gas tank is attached below it. For the first time, I ate the strings around the gas tank. It is really rushing to eat on the side of the road. Very old Chengdu.
the crowd kept on, and the whole venue was very lively. There are many guests in the store near dinner time, but the service is not bad at all, and there is no waiter to divide the area. The bottom of the pot is divided into two kinds: slightly spicy and spicy. The spicy pot bottom is just right for people's taste. The most distinctive thing I want to say is his dipping sauce. The most classic thing is that the waiter prepared a pot of soup for you and added it to the sea pepper noodles and Chili noodles. It is really delicious.
This is a sentimental cashier, full of the charm of the 1981s.
all the ingredients and seasonings in the store are made by ourselves. The first two freezers display all kinds of strings, the first one integrates all kinds of meat sticks, and the second one contains vegetarian dishes. The freezer has enough air conditioning to keep the ingredients fresh.
I strongly recommend tender beef, county liver, palm treasure and sparerib skewers, each of which is full of praise. In addition, it is highly recommended to order a single dish: Bashi small potatoes, fried crispy meat, fried crispy meat and so on. It can be said that it is very delicious.
The meat and vegetable skewers selected by ourselves are all weighed and settled in the end, which is cost-effective and delicious (very good). Whether it's older grandparents or younger grandparents, they all like the smell of the roadside. Come and remember to line up online in advance!
My favorite flower nail is fresh and delicious. I want to order another one after eating. Crispy fried crispy meat is completely different from what I ate in Guizhou, and it is also one of the must-have items I strongly recommend.
The second shop, the fisherman's fish shop at 48 Zhimin Road, is on the side of the road.
The overall decoration style of the store is biased towards the feeling of a farmer and fisherman's life, which is full of nostalgia and restores the feeling of fishermen's home in the fishing village before, but the details of the decoration have a modern aesthetic feeling.
Being in the unique storefront decoration style is natural and comfortable, just like having dinner in the farmyard of a fisherman.
You can choose different pot bottoms according to your taste (there are three kinds of pot bottoms): ancient sauerkraut pot, lemon pot, ginger pot and classic red pot. We ordered a classic red soup pot, and the smell of clear oil hit our faces. It's really delicious, full of flavor, hot and sour, and the chopped pepper has a spicy taste, which is super awesome. Just looking at it, I feel my appetite is greatly increased. With all kinds of side dishes: fried shrimp, fried fish, crispy peanuts, sweet and sour radish, all of which are appetizing. Even friends who don't like fish say that the fisherman's fish is really delicious.
this shop assistant has a strong sense of ceremony when serving pots. The pot is now served, covered with baked pebbles, topped with fish and finally topped with soup. When the clerk comes to the table, he will shout, "Lucky luck: it means that red luck is in the first place." Seeing this pot of delicious food in front of me, my appetite suddenly rose.
I can't help but have a taste. Fish is really tender, delicious and has a natural feeling.
The third secret store among online celebrities is also a Chengdu diner, located at No.48 Zhimin Road, next to Mala Tang/Fisherman Fish. "Diner" is a person who knows how to eat and understand food in Sichuan dialect. Since this restaurant dares to use the name of Chengdu diners, it can be seen that it is specially built for people who understand food, and the quality will naturally not be b
Chengdu Chike
The number of each table in the store is named after Kuanzhai Lane, Wuhou Temple, Jinli and other famous landmarks in Chengdu, which is very interesting.
unique soft design, paper lanterns.
If I were asked to recommend dishes, I would order every signature dish, haha, because every dish is really delicious. Signature dishes: Tuotuo shrimp, spicy fish fillet, beer frog, secret ribs and so on are all necessary.
recommendation 1: loveless frog with fresh and tender meat. The bullfrog is covered with thick Chili, but the Chili sauce is sour. When it is spicy, it makes your mouth feel a little hot, and then you can enjoy the pleasure of frog meat melting in your mouth.
Acacia, suitable for tasting after meals.
nestle palm treasure: unique and novel in shape, very suitable for taking pictures. It tastes slightly spicy. Quail eggs and palm treasures are hidden in peppers, and the crispy skin and its face value coexist.
duck intestines dipped in leek water: duck intestines have no fishy smell. When immersed in water, they taste strong, refreshing and crisp.
The spicy soup soaked the fresh and tender of the new prawn, and the shrimp shell was completely peeled off from the meat with a gentle pull, making the meat tender and delicious.
ribs with garlic: super delicious and full of flavor. The ribs are tight and chewy, but not too wooden, which tests the chef's skill.
The fourth shop recommended by online celebrities is a popular new online celebrity shop, which is located in Lixiangguo Food Plaza, No.75, No.23-1 East Oak Forest Road: Dejin Braised Steamed Buns. At six o'clock in the evening, there was a long queue in front of the store. So I walked around the store and found that the baked goods here are all pickled in advance and then braised in brown sauce, which not only has the attractive aroma of the baked goods themselves, but also retains the fresh and tender taste of the baked goods themselves. No wonder so many people come here. I have to say that the service here is very warm. Do you need to help me roll the meat off the kebab? I said, I like to enjoy the process of swigging. What I enjoy is the process of biting the baked food off the label.
behind the cashier, there are all kinds of wines and drinks, which makes people see at a glance.
The unique mutton kebab is heated evenly, consumes less oil and water, and won't be too dry to eat.
To tell the truth, the braised mutton kebabs are locked in the gravy water of the stewing furnace, so even the mutton kebabs are completely fresh and tender. After the kebab is baked, it will be placed on the heat preservation grill after serving, so as not to get cold. The store is very thoughtful.
I have to mention that the secret dip dish and dip dish are great. Dried vegetables are spicy and refreshing, and seafood sauce goes well with vegetables. Plum sauce and seafood sauce eat meat only to relieve the greasy meat. Therefore, anyone who doesn't like spicy food can come here to eat meat, because he didn't have pepper seasoning before baking, and he wanted the original flavor of the meat, which was great.
black pepper steak and lamb chops are recommended, both of which are large pieces of meat. They are very delicious. After ordering this pile of things, the whole thing is baked, basically it is tender outside and full of juice. Potato chips are crisp and taste like potato chips, but because they are post-cut, they are soft and tender inside, and the aroma of potatoes is very strong. Thai tiger shrimp is also my personal favorite. After the shrimp is baked, it is Q-shaped and delicious. There are also TikTok chicken feet, which must be pointed out: Q bombs are chewy, and the cold sauce is just spicy, which is just right as an appetizer. Crispy fish skin: a slightly spicy cold dish with refreshing fish skin.
