Explore the oldest street in the history of Xishu
Touring Wuhou Temple is like a dream come true; visiting Jinli is like a dream come true. Jinli is part of Chengdu Wuhou Temple Museum (Three Kingdoms Historical Site Area, Jinli Folklore Area, West Area). Legend has it that Jinli used to be one of the oldest and most commercially oriented streets in the history of Western Sichuan, and was famous throughout the country as early as the Qin-Han and Three Kingdoms periods. Now, Jinli covers an area of more than 30,000 square meters, with a building area of more than 14,000 square meters and a street length of 550 meters, integrating tourism, shopping, leisure and entertainment.
Based on Chengdu Wuhou Ancestral Hall, Jinli expands the extension of the Three Kingdoms culture with the spirit of the Qin, Han and Three Kingdoms as its soul, the Ming and Qing Dynasty as its appearance, and the folk style and folklore of western Sichuan as its content. On this street, the essence of Chengdu's slow life is condensed: there are teahouses, inns, restaurants, bars, theaters, flavorful snacks, handicrafts, and local specialties, which fully demonstrate the unique charm of the Three Kingdoms culture and Sichuan folk style and folklore.
Some of the stores on both sides sell some tea, Shu brocade, ink paintings and souvenirs, and occasionally see the characteristics of the stalls of the folk artists show, folk traditional art is strong, where
, you can appreciate the intangible culture of our country's ancient Shu brocade, bamboo weaving, lampshade can also be experienced in the most authentic Sichuan folklore: blowing the sugar man, sugar paintings, clay sculpture, paper-cutting, etc. They are the heritage and continuity of the culture of the Three Kingdoms. Their inheritance and continuation is a cultural traverse, so that the ancient and the present in the intersection here.
Walking in Jinli ancient street, winding courtyards, both sides of the streets and lakes and lotus ponds, waterfront stone bridge echo, dining, stores are located in them, water ripples, a distinctive flavor. The buildings on both sides are ancient, the bamboo forests are verdant and full of flowers, and the air is filled with the smell of fragrance.
Inside a quaint house, there is a babbling brook under the window, and the window sill is filled with a dazzling array of books and paintings, which is quite bookish.
There were all sorts of fun things to see that were very characteristic of Chengdu, and I couldn't get enough of them.
Besides all the fun stuff, you can also find a variety of folk snacks lined up in Jinli: skewers, chicken, buckwheat noodles, oil tea, buckwheat noodles, beef jiao biscuits, and so on, you can find a store to sit down and savor the taste, you can also eat as you walk,
Enjoy the wind like the ease of the city.
At night, Jinli is bustling with activity, and it's a different place than it is in the daytime: colorful, brightly lit, and quaint, so it turns out that at different times of the day, Jinli can be an amazing place to visit.
A row of rustic tables and chairs were set up under the eaves of the street, with earthen bowls, earthen cups, and large stone tanks floating with lotus flowers.
Lanterns with the word "wine" written on them were hung high, and we stepped into the night, listening quietly to the resident singer, a song and a guitar peeling back the real world.
In the music, perhaps you can hear the footsteps of the walker, the vicissitudes of breathing, the journey to the stars and the sea. Our faith, never gone, our dream, always on the road. Jinli time, wide and narrow miss.
Crazy card Chengdu's hottest net red food store
Leave behind in addition to the city's unique cultural charm, and let people linger on the food. The snacks in the streets and alleys of Chengdu must have become the desire of many people. A string of skewers, a meal of barbecue, a meal of hot pot, a meal of Thai seafood and so on, a walk into the place will not want to leave. And come to Chengdu is now very famous net red dining street Zhimin Road: a concentration of the road side of the spicy hot, Chengdu eaters, fish and fish and other brands of net red store.
A netroots skewer store in Chengdu has to come: the roadside spicy hot pot, located in Zhimin Road No. 48 (subway line 3, exit B of Xinnanmen Station), at first thought it was a roadside stall, but after coming to find that it is like back to the eighties.
The interior decoration is very nostalgic and retro, full of wall murals are street scenes of graffiti, blue benches with a small table is not high, the table is a small gas stove, the following is connected to a small gas canisters, or for the first time around the gas canisters to eat kebabs, it is really the roadside eating rush, very old Chengdu city atmosphere.
People flow constantly, the whole field has been lively, near dinner time store guests, but the service is not bad at all, well organized, and there is not a waiter fixed division of what area, pot bottom is divided into two kinds of slightly spicy and spicy. The mildly spicy pot base is just right for the public taste. The most unique to me is his family dipping sauce, the most classic is the waiter for you to modulate the pot of soup added to the sea pepper noodles and chili noodles, really delicious.
This is a sentimental cash register, full of the flavor of the 80s.
Inside the store ingredients skewers and seasonings are self-serve, the front of the two freezers display skewers rich and diverse, all kinds of meat stick integrated in the first freezer, vegetarian class in the second freezer, freezer cold air is sufficient to maintain the freshness of the ingredients.
Highly recommended tender beef, liver, palm trees, pork ribs skewers, each of which is highly recommended. Also highly recommended are the small dishes: Bashi small potatoes, braised flower armor, freshly fried crispy pork, braised brain flower, and so on, all of which can be said to be very tasty.
Self-service selection of meat and vegetarian skewers are finally settled by weighing, cost-effective, the flavor is very Bashful (very good), whether it is the older grandparents, or young, without exception, are very like the taste of the roadside, so come over to remember to be sure to go online in advance to line up ah!
Favorite flower armor, fresh and tasty, after eating still want to order another one, crispy fried crispy meat, with the kind of texture I ate in Guizhou is completely different, but also highly recommended one of the must point.
The second store, also located at 48 Zhimin Road, Fishman's Fish Shop, is right next to the road.
The whole store is decorated in a style that favors the feeling of living as a farmer and fisherman, with a sense of nostalgia, restoring the feeling of a fishing village and fishermen's home, but with modern aesthetics in the details.
Full of characteristics of the store decoration style, in which, as if it were in the farm fishermen's courtyard dining, natural and comfortable.
You can choose different pot bases according to your taste (there are three pot bases) Ancient Sauerkraut Pot, Lemon Pot Chai Ginger Pot, and Classic Red Pot. We ordered a classic red soup pot, the fragrance of the clear oil on the face, really colorful and flavorful, full of flavor, sour and spicy, chopped peppers to increase the spiciness, superb, just look at the full appetite. And then with all kinds of small dishes to drink: fried shrimp, fried small fish, crispy peanut rice, sweet and sour mixed radish, are very appetizing, even around the friends who do not like to eat fish are saying that the fisherman's fish is really good.
The shopkeeper's ritual of serving the pots is particularly strong, the pots are now on the table, the bottom is covered with baked pebbles, on top of the fish, and then finally poured with the soup. The clerk will call out when the table: the luck of the hour: the meaning of red luck, see the pot of food in front of you, the appetite will be lifted up.
Can't help but taste a bite, the fish meat is really tender and quite flavorful, with a natural feel.
The third Netflix restaurant to explore is also Chengdu Eater, located at 48 Zhimin Road, which is next to the roadside spicy hot pot/fishfisherman's fish. "Eaters", in Sichuan, means people who know about food, and since this store dares to use Chengdu Eaters as its name, it can be seen that it is a store created specifically for people who know about food, so naturally the quality will not be bad.
Going up to the second floor and entering the store door, you can see that the decoration of the store is quite creative, and the walls are plastered with photos of iconic buildings in various parts of Chengdu, with a retro flavor.
CHENGDU EATERS
And it's interesting to see that the number of each table in the store is named after famous Chengdu landmarks such as the Broad and Narrow Alley, the Wuhou Shrine and Jinli.
The very characteristic soft decoration design with paper lanterns.
That said, if I were to recommend dishes, I would say order every signature dish, haha, because each one is really delicious and memorable. Signature specialties: Tuo Tuo Shrimp, Spicy Fish Fillet, Beer Frog and Secret Baby Back Ribs are a must.
Recommendation one: Jedi frog, tender meat, bullfrogs covered with thick chili, but the chili sauce belongs to the sour, spicy fit into the mouth first a little hot, and then it is to enjoy the frog meat melt in the mouth of the thrill.
Acacia red color, suitable for after-dinner tasting.
Nestle palm: unique and innovative shape, very suitable for photographs, the flavor is slightly spicy, quail eggs and palm are hidden inside the chili pepper, the texture of the crunchy skin and its face value of the same coexist.
Chive dipping duck intestines: duck intestines dealt with a little fishy, dipped in dipping water, eat up strong crisp.
To pile shrimp spicy soup base soaked in the tenderness of the basil shrimp, shrimp shells gently tugged will be completely peeled away from the meat, tender meat, flavorful and delicious.
Garlic Spare Ribs: super tasty, strong flavor, spare ribs meat made firm, chewy, but not very firewood, quite a test of the chef's craft.
The fourth Netflix recommended store is located in the Oak Grove East Road 23 negative first floor of the Acorn Lane food court attached to the 75th popularity of the new Netflix store: the strength of the stewed kebabs. When I arrived at 6pm, there was already a long line in front of the store. So I walked to the store and strolled around, and found that the grilled items here are marinated in advance, and then stewed, both the grilled items themselves tantalizing aroma, but also retained the grilled items themselves juicy and tender taste. No wonder so many people come here. I have to say that the service here is very enthusiastic, said need to jerk off the meat on the skewer for me? I said, I just like to enjoy the process of jerking the skewers and drinking the food, enjoying the process of jerking and biting the grilled food off the skewer.
Behind the cashier's counter, there's a wide range of wines and drinks to choose from.
The unique simmering oven kebabs are evenly heated and consume less fat and moisture, so they don't taste too dry.
To be honest, the stewed kebabs are locked in the stew oven, so even if the kebabs are grilled, the meat tastes not at all faggot, but very tender. After the kebabs are grilled and brought to the table, they are placed on an insulated grill to prevent them from getting cold, which is quite a thoughtful thing for the store to do.
Have to mention is the secret thousand spicy dish, Jiao dish these two dipping saucer is very awesome Oh, dry dish spicy and refreshing, seafood sauce with vegetables is good, plum sauce and seafood sauce to eat meat just to solve the meat of the greasy. So do not like spicy people can come here to eat meat, because he roasted before the hemp chili these spices, to eat the original flavor of the meat, this point is also quite is quite good.
Recommended must eat black pepper beef chops, lamb chops are large chunks of meat, eat very strong. I ordered this bunch of things overall grilled fire holding quite good, basically to achieve the outside of the charred inside tender, juicy. Potato chips are very crunchy, the texture is like eating potato chips, but because it is cut potato chips, so there is a very soft inside, the aroma of potatoes is very full. Thai tiger prawns is also my personal favorite, shrimp grilled meat Q elastic, flavorful. There are also jitterbug chicken claws, must be ordered: Q stretchy chewy, cold sauce spicy flavor is just right, as a appetizer just good. Crispy mixed fish skin: taste slightly spicy, fish skin Q cool and elastic, crisp and crunchy, a very appetizing cold dish.
The fifth finally came to card the most net red oyster hero fresh oyster store, located in the red star road, section 4, 25, attached to the 23rd second floor. It is simply a paradise for us seafood lovers. The store is located in Chengdu, red star road, section four, 25 with the 23rd floor, more than five o'clock in the evening to climb the stairs on the second floor really scared me, "people from the crowd" are lining up, not at all exaggerated.

That is to say, the seafood here are walking cold chain over, very fresh, basically can not eat the fishy flavor. In addition to signature oysters, scallops, shrimp, etc., there are also a lot of grilled meat (palm of the treasure, pork neck, pork are seasoned in advance, grilled directly eat all the flavor), vegetarian dishes, desserts and so on, can be said to be rich in a variety of dishes. There is also a seasoning section with a variety of different seasonings, including Korean-style sauce for grilled meat, chili noodles, bean noodles, and soy sauce for steamed oysters.
Every table comes with garlic, so when the oysters boil and bubble, you put garlic on them and grill them again, and the flavor is superb. Finally, I have to mention that the waiters here are very nice, as soon as we were seated began to help us prepare the grill net to help us grill oysters, scallops, etc., but also explained that the oil brushed on the side of us is baking paper, used for fresh shrimp, grilled meats, vegetables, etc., quite considerate. However, because each table is a fireplace, so eat a little hot, choose a location near the air conditioning is better, but this will not affect our mood to enjoy this seafood feast, business is still bursting. If you want to come here to feel the great feast, remember to come in advance to line up ah!
Chengdu in addition to kebabs, must eat the food of course, there is hot pot ah, the last card of the net red store, is another flavor of hot pot.

Traveling through the millennium, just to meet the feelings of the Three Kingdoms
The famous Wuhou Ancestral Hall is just a wall away from Jinli, and Wuhou Ancestral Hall seems to be full of the vicissitudes of history. The Wuhou Ancestral Hall, a relic of the Three Kingdoms, has a long history of more than a thousand years. Walking in, it's like traveling through time and space, back to that Three Kingdoms struggle for supremacy more than a thousand years ago.
To the Wuhou Temple Scenic Area in front of the gate, appeared in front of the eyes is a carved beams, majestic ancient temple buildings, wide and tall gate above a large plaque in gold characters, inscribed with the "Han Zhaolie Temple," the four big words.
I think this is not the Wuhou Temple? Why is the plaque written "Han Zhaolie Temple", the original is a temple dedicated to Liu Bei, because Liu Bei was the founding emperor of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period, called Hanzhong Wang, posthumously "Han Zhaolie Emperor".
This large gold plaque indicates that this is a temple dedicated to Liu Bei, the emperor of Shu. And why is it always called the Wuhou Temple? A poem by Zou Lu during the Republic of China (R.O.C.) period tells the reason: "The doorway is written in a large book, Zhaolie Temple, and the world says Wuhou Ancestral Hall. That is to say, although here hangs the signboard of Liu Bei Temple, but Zhuge Liang's outstanding historical achievements, in the hearts of the people's prestige over Liu Bei, so people disregarded the etiquette of the king and the original name of the temple, because he was named Marquis of Wuxiang, so the people will be called "Marquis of Wuxi Shrine".
Zhao Lie Temple main hall west wall hangs Yue Fei written "out of the division table" woodcut. Previously in the textbook read Zhuge Liang's "out of the division table", today to see this engraving Yue Fei version of the real seal, or inwardly quite excited.
Out of the Cultural Center, then step into a door, is that the civil ministers gallery and military generals gallery on the left and right respectively. The generals' gallery is on the left and the ministers' gallery is on the right. Both sides are filled with portraits of Shu's missionaries, such as Dong Hao, Jiang Wei, and so on. Next is the Han Zhaolie Temple, in which the statue of Liu Bei, the emperor of Shu, is enshrined. He is wearing a crown on his head, a dragon robe, and his eyes are slightly open. Then it was on to the real Wuhou Shrine, because in front of it were all the other figures of the Three Kingdoms, and this was the place where Zhuge Liang was enshrined.
Wuhou Shrine Zhuge Liang holding a feather fan, sitting on a chair, the kind of oil born of the momentum of people in awe, to the "bowing to exhaustion, dying," the important ministers of Shu to express high respect. Looking up at the roof, there are eight words: indifferent to fame and aspiration, serenity and far-reaching. If you look down on fame and fortune and calm your mind, you will be able to reach a transcendental realm.
After visiting the Temple of the Three Righteousness, through this red-walled sandwich road in front of you, you will come to the Wuhou Temple Huiling! Huiling is the mausoleum of Liu Bei. Chengdu's famous Jin Guan deep "red wall bamboo shadow" is here, is also the most suitable for card photo place, this clip road is simply the most tender part of the Wuhou Ancestral Temple, the environment is quiet, the red wall surrounded by the alley, on both sides of the bamboo towering high. Green bamboos and red walls echo each other, but also form a bright contrast of colors, so that visitors love.
Wuhou Ancestral Shrine slowly savored, one feels the inner shock. Kong Ming's spirit, will, state of mind, can not be expressed in words. It needs to be savored and contemplated by ourselves. As "there is a true meaning here, want to argue has forgotten words."
When the lights come on, the unique shape of the Nine Eyes Bridge in the light reflection, like a rainbow, lying across the Jinjiang River, colorful, listening to the music, watching the scenery, welcoming the lights, extraordinarily beautiful, the lamps write the wave of the night
