Xiaolongkan hotpot Chengdu Xichun branch Xiaolongkan hotpot Chengdu concept branch
It's hard to avoid being a little excited to travel freely with friends. We made a lot of preparations before the trip.
However, the plan is not as fast as the change. For various reasons, the original schedule was temporarily changed.
Here, I want to share some experiences that I personally think are useful. I hope you have a good trip.
Preparation before travel
1, Chongqing is a mountain city, so you'd better bring a pair of sports shoes.
2. Sun protection is very important, especially in Chongqing, especially in summer, and there is no shortage of sun protection umbrellas;
3, gunpowder, Jianwei Xiaoshi tablets, antidiarrheal drugs, band-AIDS;
4. Book a hotel at least half a month in advance, and recommend a B&B(short rent, Piggy, Airbnb) for free, which is cheap and comfortable, and a good B&B is particularly popular. After living in a B&B in Chongqing this time, I feel spoiled by the landlord. I am not satisfied with living in a youth travel agency in Chengdu. The homestay we stayed in provided everything, including a card, toiletries, sunscreen and band-AIDS. If I had known, I wouldn't have brought so much luggage.
5. Recommended travel applications: Baidu map, booking B&B (Pig short rent, airbnb, subway, pocket booking,
We went to Chongqing first and then to Chengdu. We stayed in Chongqing for three days. Because we only play in the city, we have plenty of time and a relaxed schedule.
Chongqing
The Quaker's name for Sunday
Original Plan: Third Walk+Chaotianmen Wharf+Yangtze River Cableway+Hongyadong.
Actual itinerary: Step 3+Sisyphus Bookstore+Yangtze River Cableway+Hongyadong.
The third step is still worth taking. The old alleys in old Chongqing are very tasty. I don't know when they will be demolished like eighteen ladders. Unexpectedly, it took a short time, and then we decided to stay in Jie Fangbei's Sisyphus Bookstore for a few hours, where we could read a book while drinking coffee, and then eat hot _ sister hotpot at two or three in the afternoon. Fortunately, we didn't wait a minute. Personally, I think the taste is average. If you are not afraid of spicy food, you can try it, but you must avoid it ~
It only takes 1.8 yuan to swipe your card once from 17:00 to 19:00 on the working day of the Yangtze River cableway. It's cheap, and the ropeway stops running when it thunders and rains.
Hongyadong is a scenic spot not to be missed, especially beautiful. You must go at night and have a panoramic view of the Qiansimen Bridge.
Food recommendation
Yogurt cattle, a sharp weapon for relieving summer heat, are sold in many places, and there are also many pirated versions. What kind of yogurt and a cup of yogurt, you should look for it before buying.
the next day
Original plan: Wulong
Actual itinerary: Ciqikou+Lazy Fish Time Hall
Due to various reasons, we canceled Wulong's trip, so we went to Ciqikou, and the time suddenly increased a lot, so we strolled slowly. Originally, I planned to go to Ciqikou in the morning and Zhazidong in the afternoon. As a result, I accidentally stayed in the lazy fish time museum for a few hours, and then it rained and missed the opening time of Zhazidong.
Well, today is boring. There is nothing to say.
the third day
Original plan: Ciqikou+Chuanmei+Liziba
Actual itinerary: Chuanmei+Liziba
In the morning, I went to Huangboying Campus of Chuanmei Old Campus. To be honest, it's not as good as I thought. The school can really be visited in less than half an hour, and the graffiti wall outside can be used to take pictures.
By the way, we're here to avoid lightning. 10,000 regrets went to Tikan Tofu pudding outside the old campus. The taste is very old, and the seasoning is charged separately. The point is that the waitress had a bad attitude and we almost quarreled with her. Can you believe it? It's a little hard to understand that the local people say that tofu pudding is used for dinner, but we can't enjoy it anyway.
Then we went to the nearby traffic teahouse, which is said to have been open for 30 years. Behind the door are really two worlds. Tea is very cheap, and the four of us spent 3 1 RMB. To borrow a word, what we drink here is not the taste of tea, but the old days in the mountain city.
The Huxi Campus of Chuanmei New Campus is much bigger than the old campus. You can shoot as you like. Next to the school gate is the Luo Zhongli Art Museum. Pay attention to the opening hours of the art museum, and close it in summer and Monday.
Liziba stands on light rail line 2.
Chengdu
The fourth day
Original plan: People's Park+Yulin Life Plaza
Actual itinerary: Picasso Dali Original Exhibition+Fangfang Bookstore+Yulin Life Plaza
When we arrived in Chengdu by high-speed train, it was already noon. We all like reading and are worried that it will be too hot in the afternoon. We went directly to the Fang Bookstore in the underground of Taikooli. On the way, we saw the exhibition of Picasso Dali's original works and felt that the opportunity was rare. We went in for a few hours and then went to the bookstore.
Fang Bookstore is very big, with a good environment and many people. There are all kinds of books, including stationery, manuals and clothes. Of course, the price is not cheap. Books are sold at the original price. You can buy one or two books as souvenirs, but they can actually be bought online.
Then I went to the bar on Yulin West Road, where there were many people and it didn't open until three o'clock in the afternoon. If you want to sit down, go to the queue early.
Fifth day
Original plan: Giant Panda Breeding Research Base+Wenshuyuan+Kuanzhai Lane.
Actual itinerary: Giant Panda Breeding Research Base+Wenshuyuan+Kuanzhai Lane.
You must get up early to see the giant panda. The base opens at 7:30 in the morning. We arrived at 7:40 and many people were already waiting in line. You can go in by sightseeing bus, but you have to wait in line for a long time. It is recommended to save time and walk in, because the road inside is not very long. Tickets to 59 yuan, student tickets to 29 yuan. You can buy an electronic ticket, but there is no map (there is one in the base that you can take pictures of. This road is a bit complicated, so please make it clear before you go, or you will waste your time. There will be many people after 9 o'clock, so you should pay close attention to the places you want to see. It is suggested to go directly to the confinement room of the giant panda, which is the youngest and cutest baby panda just born.
Note: Giant panda and red panda are not the same species. Regardless of size, black and white pandas are called giant pandas. Red pandas are creatures that look like raccoons, but they are not raccoons. Stop joking. If you are lucky, you can see free-range peacocks.
Kuanzhai Lane is divided into wide alleys, narrow alleys and well alleys. These three alleys are adjacent. Wide alley and narrow alley are snack streets, and the snacks inside are very expensive, starting at 100 RMB.
sixth day
Dujiangyan+Qingcheng Mountain
Free travel is much more cost-effective than traveling with a group. It only costs more than ten yuan by train. We took the intercity train from Chengdu Railway Station to Lidui Park Station. When we come back, we will take Qingchengshan Railway Station to Xipu Station and return to Chengdu. It's only a short walk from Lidui Park to Dujiangyan.
Note: Chengdu is very congested in the morning rush hour, so the subway is the best choice to catch the train.
Qingcheng Mountain is divided into Qian Shan and Houshan, which are far apart. Qian Shan is a humanistic landscape (Taoism, and the back mountain is a natural landscape). I like to explore ancient times and go to Qian Shan. I like to travel and enjoy summer and cool.
We went to the back hill. From the front hill to the back hill, we had to take the mountain road by bus. The mountain road is a bit steep and narrow (a bit scary and may be blocked). We take a taxi (from Qianshan to Houshan 70 yuan, or we can take a bus, one way per person 13 yuan.
Qian Shan all tickets 90 yuan; Houshan Student Ticket 15 yuan, all tickets to 20 yuan. The mountain road on the left is steep, and the mountain road on the right is gentle and extremely high. If you have enough time, you can climb a mountain or take a cable car. The cable car stops at 18:00 pm. We went up the mountain from the right and there were flying springs all the way. Oh, natural air conditioning! Super cool!
Experience: If there is only one day, it is best to go to Qingcheng Mountain in the morning and Dujiangyan in the afternoon. Because we went to Dujiangyan first, then time was running out. It's a pity that Qingcheng Mountain only climbed a third and went back the same way. We vowed to climb Qingcheng Mountain in the future!
Seventh day
Jinli+Wuhou Temple+People's Park+Chunxi Road Business Circle
Jinli is similar to Kuanzhai Lane. We went there in the morning and many shops were closed. Later, after visiting Wuhou Temple, we went to Jinli for lunch. I suggest going at night. The night view is beautiful.
Food recommendation: Bawangchang, Huanglaozao and Ji Bo.
If you are a fan of the Three Kingdoms, you must visit Wuhou Temple. Otherwise, you can learn about history.
There are red walls and green bamboos in it. It's nice to take pictures.
People's Park can feel the leisurely life of old Chengdu people. The bomb shelter inside is a good place to enjoy the cool, and it is also famous for making tea.
Highly recommended: Xiaolongkan
I listened to the recommendation of the local people and went directly from People's Park to Xiaolongkan on Chunxi Road to eat hot pot at four o'clock in the afternoon. There are two Xiaolongkan on the same road, either one will do.
After four o'clock, the queue began to increase. Fortunately, there are only 30 tables in front, and I didn't finish eating until after five o'clock. If we don't want to wait, we can look around first, but don't cross the number. We must wait for as many tables as possible. I strongly recommend Xiaolongkan when I come to Chengdu. Delicious and not expensive, the service is good and the spicy degree is moderate. I recommend brown sugar, crispy meat, pumpkin pie and pee beef balls.
There are many luxuries in Chunxi Road business circle. What surprises us most is that there is a particularly large temple, Taici Temple, in the downtown area, which is a clean place in the bustling area. It's really hidden in the city.
MUJI's largest flagship store in the world is located in Taikooli.
Individuals spent a total of about 3500 RMB, and the food, play and purchase were basically in place. This kind of consumption is still very rational.
