The Leshan Giant Buddha plank road is windy, keep your head warm to avoid catching a cold! 📱**Electronics**: Power bank + selfie stick + waterproof phone case (for boating to see the Leshan Sleeping Buddha), anti-fog camera bag (large temperature differences cause fogging)! 💊**Common Medicines**: Stomach medicine (hotpot and skewers are very spicy), motion sickness patches (Leshan shuttle buses go on winding mountain roads), cold medicine (damp and cold weather easily causes colds)! 🆔**Documents**: ID card + student ID (discounts on attraction tickets), pre-register on the Tianfu Health Code mini program for fast entry scanning at scenic spots! 🍪**Snacks & Supplies**: Small packs of beef jerky + chocolate (energy boost for climbing Emei Mountain), thermos with hot water, few water refill points in scenic areas so don’t go hungry!

Dujiangyan Scenic Area

Dujiangyan is the perfect escape for culture lovers and nature addicts alike 🌲🏯. My favorite part? The South Bridge at night — think shimmering river views, glowing ancient buildings, and a vibe that’s both serene and truly magical. Top Spots to Visit: 1. Guanxian Ancient City Tourist Scenic Area Visitor Center Address: No.16 Chenjia Lane, Dujiangyan City, Chengdu Open: 09:00–17:00 Start here for orientation, info, and maps. The architecture sets the mood for old-world adventures, and staff here can help you plan your walking route. 2. Dujiangyan Scenic Area Address: Park Road, Dujiangyan City Open: Mar 2–Oct 31 08:00–18:00; Nov 1–Dec 1 08:00–17:30; Dec 2–Dec 5 Closed; Dec 6–Mar 1 08:00–17:30 Admission: ¥80 This UNESCO site is massive and gorgeous, so wear comfy shoes! Expect ancient canals, riverside walkways, and lush trees (hello ginkgo!). If the weather’s cloudy and rainy (like my visit), it just adds dramatic mist for Insta-worthy photos. 3. Dujiangyan Irrigation System Address: Baoping Lane, Dujiangyan Scenic Area Open: 08:30–17:00 See 2,000-year-old engineering genius up close. Tip: Visit before sunset as lighting gets lush for photos, and crowds thin out. Travel Hacks: - Getting there: Take a direct train from Chengdu (~40 min) then local taxi or bus to the entrance. - Food: Try the local snacks sold near Guanxian Ancient City! Don’t miss Sichuan-style noodles at small family stalls for spicy warmth on rainy days. - The area’s best at night — walk the South Bridge, especially if you love night photography or peaceful vibes. - Bring a raincoat or umbrella for sudden showers; most paths are fine but stone bridges can get slick. #Dujiangyan #SichuanTravel #ChinaHistory #NightPhotography #tripdotcom #chinatrip #china_diaries
