CHINA'S PANDA PARADISE | Chengdu Is A MUST VISIT Destination!

If you're traveling to China, DO NOT make the mistake of skipping Chengdu! After spending just 3 days here, I knew I should have booked for longer because there is so much to do in this lovely city. Of course most people visit for the world famous Chengdu Panda Breeding Research Center (highly recommend, obviously), but the city itself is very tourist friendly with beautiful parks, great shopping centers and also is a foodie paradise! I was kindly invited by the Sichuan International Communications Center to tour the city and create some content, so if you would like more tourist info from them, check out their website and KZread channel down below:

A friend of ours from Chicago area brought traditional clothes for her 3 daughters - she asked my daughter, niece and even tour guide (all in 18 to 24 age group) to dress up with these and had a photo shoot.

It had it all: Pandas (of course), a sumptuous, somewhat intimidating hot pot shared with locals, decidedly beautiful cosplay that few other than Alina could pull off, and last but not least, the dubious, mercantile Coupling Corner. Simply epic.

    The coupling corner is interesting, strange at first, but after given some thoughts, I like it. Here in the US, it's hard to find someone to date or get married to, were so busy all the time. It's like online dating in a way, but more up and personal, which I like more. It's not for everyone, I think most people still prefer to find someone randomly in person, like it's always been, but I think it's great to have other options available in finding a partner.

It was more or less an educational center, and it was not developed. In addition, the tour company thought it was odd that I wanted to visit here. 😅It's so nice now and even there were no crowds when I visited. My children wore plastic aprons and hugged the Panda on a bench. Now it's a proper amusement park full of guests. It was lovely.

    You missed the other colour form, the brown and white panda, which is a variation from the more common black and white panda. As a true bear, its at the opposite extreme from the polar bear Both hypercarnivores and hyperherbivores exist in the same family and the panda is an example of the latter! Your visit to Chengdu to see them, was a dream come true! 😊

    Another paradise worth checking out in spring is the One Hundred Mile Azalea Forest, also known as the Baili Dujuan Scenic Area, in southwest China's Guizhou Province, is the largest, most diverse and best-preserved primitive azalea forest in the world. Over a million tourists flock to the scenic area each spring to see the riot of color.

    Just come back from Chengdu, it is one of my favorite city in China. You must go to the Panda Center, there are also many minorities in the city. The streets and sidewalks are broad, the river and air are clean. There are also many old but active Buddhist temples, traditional and modern theaters. Many Universities campuses. the Modern subways can take your way out of town and see the new development. It is a less crowded city in China. The weather has been lovely in the spring!

    What is a trip without a good meal. (A good hot pot) Interesting trip but nothing like walking across a sky scraper roof or the rock formations at the Chinese National Park. Interesting all depends on what you enjoy as an individual person. Personally, I would like to see the different varieties of bamboo and how it is used for every day items, construction techniques using bamboo, & the process of making cross laminated bamboo building sheets. ( kind of like an Asian ply board made from bamboo)

    Loved the Panda's - would be a must visit. You are being very well treated by the Chinese tourism agencies all over the place. Great food, entertainment, guides, dress ups for photo shoots. Yes - treated like a Queen - and why not - you only live once so make the most of what is on offer 😊

    If you are a foodie China is definitely your country. Every province or even city has its own local specialties. For example Yunnan has these absolutely tasty mushrooms not found elsewhere. Another place you must visit is the Dongbei morning market. Huge variety of foods, unbelievably inexpensive.

    For us it was all about the pandas. We saw them in Chengdu and Beijing. Our Yuki has that Panda face. But it just wasn't about the pandas. we loved the food, the markets, the shopping and that it was very pedestrian friendly. Like many cities we visited in China. There was never enough time to slow down and enjoy it all. Alina, What a video. So good on so many levels. That's why we love ❤ you . Sending so much love from where we are right now. (Lagos, Portugal in the Algarve ) Harriet, Jim and Yuki P.S. PANDAMANIA!
