2024 Chengdu Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)
Chengdu is a city on the rise, one you will want to visit again and again. Chengdu has a long and storied history. It has a unique cuisine with a huge number of hot and spicy dishes, as well as an enviously relaxed pace of life. Historic Jinli’s overpowering sense of enthralling antiquity, adorable giant pandas and avenues full of hotpot restaurants all call out to welcome visitors from near and far. On the outskirts of town, you can find quiet solace in peaceful Qingcheng Mountain or the bucolic ancient town of Anning. It is a vastly different side of Chengdu. Chengdu is also a fashionable city. The nightscape of Jiuyan (the Nine Arched) Bridge and the nearby Kuanzhai Alley truly make people feel the fast-paced pulse of the city.

Temple with Amazing Vegetarian Restaurant in Chengdu
#100waysoftravel
I went to Wenshu Monastery (Wenshu Yuan) in Chengdu and was impressed with its rich history, spiritual atmosphere, and cultural offerings make it a fascinating destination. No wonder, this temple is one of the most significant Buddhist sites in Sichuan Province
Wenshu Monastery has a history of over 1,000 years, dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618–907 AD), this temple is dedicated to Wenshu (Manjushri), the Bodhisattva of Wisdom.
During the Qing Dynasty, This monastery gained prominence when a Buddhist monk named Cidu meditated and was believed to have transformed into Wenshu after his death.
The monastery's traditional Chinese architecture is stunning, with intricately designed halls, towers, and pavilions surrounded by lush gardens, and The Great Buddha Hall and the Hall of Wenshu are among the highlights, housing impressive Buddhist statues and relics.
The monastery houses over 500 statues, including Buddhist deities, historical figures, and mythical creatures. It preserves rare Buddhist texts, sutras, and calligraphy by notable scholars and monks.
Despite being located in the bustling city of Chengdu, Wenshu Monastery offers a tranquil retreat. Visitors can meditate, light incense, or simply enjoy the serene surroundings.
After exploring the entire monastery, before I left this temple, I took a rest in one of their tea houses, and enjoyed Chengdu's famous tea culture while relaxing in the peaceful setting of Wenshu's monastery garden. I also had my lunch in the vegetarian restaurant owned by the monastery, which serves traditional Buddhist dishes made from fresh, local ingredients.
Visiting Wenshu Monastery provides not only a spiritual journey but also a deeper understanding of Chengdu’s cultural heritage and the enduring influence of Buddhism in China.

A Fairy Tale Walk in Autumn | Ginkgo Viewing in Chengdu Parks
🍂 In November, as the temperature drops, the ginkgo trees in Chengdu become more and more brilliant.
This fleeting beauty can only be enjoyed at this time of year. ✔️
✅ From early to late November, the ginkgo trees never fail to impress in autumn. It's that time of year again when the leaves turn yellow. The ginkgo trees in Chengdu are in full bloom.
Among the many ginkgo forests, I chose the riverside park in the city center, which is easy to reach.
📍 Huoshui Park, Jiaolong Port, Shuangliu District, Chengdu
In the sunlight, the golden leaves are reflected in the water, shining brightly.

The cooler evening weather is perfect for cycling, offering a peaceful way to explore the city without the risk of sunburn.

Known as the "Tower of Life," this artistic bamboo fountain in SKP Chengdu Mall is a breathtaking display of Chinese architectural artistry. It combines traditional bamboo design with modern aesthetics, creating a unique landmark that’s as much a work of art as it is a fountain.

Winter in Chengdu
When we visit Chengdu, one thing we cannot miss is seeing the pandas, whether it's the giant pandas, the pandas on buildings, or even panda-themed souvenirs. Everything from bags to clothes is panda-themed.
The area we checked in this time is right in the heart of Chengdu.
At the IFS mall, there's a panda clinging to the building.
If we stand in front of the mall, we can take a photo with the panda's bottom.
But if we go up inside the mall, we can take a photo with the panda's face.
It's free to take photos, but you might have to queue up. Some people want a souvenir photo, and there are staff available to take the photo for you.
I've been to Chengdu five times with my parents... Who can resist this affordable hotel??
My impression of Chengdu's homestays has improved a lot.
I took my family to Chengdu for a trip... I randomly booked a homestay and it was amazing.
Huge floor-to-ceiling windows √ Taikoo Li downstairs √ Sunken living room with a mahjong table
If you want to travel to Chengdu with friends and family, have a weekend get-together, or celebrate a birthday, this is the place to go.

Downstairs is the bustling Taikoo Li, and Chunxi Road is just a few minutes' walk away. There are so many fun things to do and delicious things to eat! Plus, the subway station is right outside, so it's easy to get anywhere! You can easily visit all the major attractions in Chengdu.

The black and white color scheme and gold crystal chandelier are really high-end. There's an automatic mahjong table, projector, fridge, kitchen, and everything you need.
I love the sunken sofa design. The space is really big.
Everyone can sit together, watch movies, chat, and eat. It's so relaxing!
I'll stay at this hotel whenever I come to Chengdu!
AC Hotel by Marriott Chengdu
Recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
AC Hotel only offers breakfast for one person to members in China. However, after a friendly chat, Xiao He at the front desk helped me apply for an extra free breakfast, which was nice. After actually having breakfast, I found it to be average, and definitely not worth the price of 88 per person.
As a new hotel, there is still a certain smell of renovation. The hotel is located in Phoenix Mountain Sports Park in the northern suburbs of Chengdu, not far from the southern direction of Chengdu's development. The hotel is a "short and fat" building with only 6 floors and almost no view. There are more than 70 rooms on each floor, and it's been a long time since I've seen such a dense corridor of rooms.
The hotel has a distinctive decoration style, with the feel of a mid-range hotel like All Seasons. Among so many rooms, there are only 8 suites in total, and 2 of them are for the hotel's own use. The probability of high-card members upgrading to a suite is not very high.
✅ The stadium is only 10 meters away, and the parking lot is shared, which is very suitable for those who come to watch games or concerts. It's only 7 km from the Panda Base, the best choice for seeing pandas early in the morning. It's also closer to Sanxingdui than other Marriott hotels.
✅ The price is the cheapest among Marriott hotels in Chengdu, similar to ordinary All Seasons and Atour hotels. It is a sign of Marriott Group's attack on the mid-range market.

With a height of over 15 meters, the panda can be seen from a distance by visitors.
In addition to viewing the panda sculpture, IFS is also a popular shopping destination with many luxury brands, cafes, and a variety of restaurants.
It is conveniently accessible by public transportation, with the nearest subway station being Chunxi Road Station (Line 2 or Line 3). Take Exit A or D and walk for about 5-10 minutes to the IFS building, which is located in the heart of Chengdu's shopping and entertainment district.
Exploring Chengdu at Night
Taking a nighttime stroll through Chengdu is an activity not to be missed, especially around the Anshun Bridge, which is exceptionally beautiful in the evening. The bridge combines traditional Chinese architecture with modern elements and spans the Jin River. When illuminated with colorful lights reflecting off the water, the surrounding scenery becomes even more romantic and charming.
During your walk, you can also stop by nearby restaurants or cafes to relax and admire the bridge from different angles. The area is bustling with local life, featuring both traditional and modern restaurants that stay open late, allowing you to soak in the relaxing and impressive atmosphere.
Besides Anshun Bridge, you can also explore nearby areas like Jinli Ancient Street, an old district filled with shops and eateries. All these elements make Chengdu's nightlife unique and beautiful in its own way.
