Chengdu is a very good place to go to this place to play Xiaobian give you some recommended stores it, there are food, play, and Emei Mountain strategy, in short, to go to Chengdu is certainly to have fun, the following go to see what fun it.
Walking the streets, surprises come from inadvertently1, Baotongshu Street-→Xiaotong Lane-→Kuixing Street.
Mentioning what's interesting in Chengdu, "Broad and Narrow Alley" will be in the top three mentioned by most people. But when an attraction is widely known, commercialization will be a necessity, so it will lose its original characteristics, quite boring. Therefore, today I want to give you a good not "wide and narrow alley", but the following route: Baotongtongshu Street - Xiaotongxiang - Kuixing Street.
These three alleys aren't very long and are easy to find, just stroll down them. I went there during the May Day holiday, riding a bicycle "squeezed" through, yes, "squeezed" through the wide and narrow alleys, and then circled around two or three times to get there. Wow, the feeling of breaking away from the crowds was like being rescued from drowning, a total relief.
Walking all the way down the street, you will find that there are a lot of unique stores hidden here. Decoration style is also very diverse, giving me the feeling that each store has its own story. Walking into the store can feel the shopkeeper's heart. It's a good place to come often and calm down to experience. Next, the highlights! Most of the ladies in the stores here are very pretty! Speaking voice is soft and cute, attitude is also very good, the heart is really beautiful.
2, Panda Post Office
La-la-la, after strolling through these alleys, we can choose a place to take a break. Given my obsession with sending postcards to my friends, I chose the Panda Post Office, which is just down the road from the Broad and Narrow Alley!
As for who I sent the postcard to, what style I chose, and what I wrote on it, I'll keep it a secret~
PS: Don't throw away the postcard after you spend money at the Panda Post Office, get it stamped at the front desk, and then you can get a discount on drinks at the Panda Drinks Shop next door. The amount of discount varies depending on the amount of money spent.
3, Qinglian Street and Boring Palladium Street
The reason why I recommend these two streets is because there are also many literary and fresh stores hidden here. This time I went to "_早小食", which is a Japanese-style cafe, and when I went there at 4:00 in the afternoon, there was only one single seat left. Haha, it's times like these that show the benefits of traveling alone, dining can be very efficient.
Lotus and _Morning Bookstore are on the left and right of _Morning Snacks respectively. The style of the bookstore is also Japanese minimalist and quiet. "Lotus is a cocktail bar, but I didn't go in because it wasn't open when I visited. If you want to go there, you can put these three places together to save time.
Lost at will, in the fusion of literature and creativityAs time goes by, I feel more and more that surprises in life begin with the breaking of routine. Creativity is also bred in constant collision and subversion, so every time I go to a place, I love to look for places with creativity and vitality. Because there, one can see the spark of people's thinking and inspiration. It's new and interesting.
1, Dongjiao Memory
This place is interesting. Originally a "state-run Hongguang Electronic Tube Factory", it was later transformed into a music park and officially renamed "Dongjiao Memory" in 2012. It has become a center for art and cultural performances and exchanges of artistic creations in Chengdu.
When you enter, you can clearly feel a strong industrial style, these buildings have been preserved and remodeled, full of stories. I was attracted by the old-fashioned atmosphere sprinkled in the slowness and coldness of the buildings.
Walking slowly, using the camera in my hand to record the light and shadows that I found while walking, I felt contented and peaceful inside. In my eyes, anything that is photographed has a soul, so I must have been touched the moment I pressed the shutter. During that time, I also saw many people taking art photos and wedding photos there, and the air was overflowing with sweetness.

2, U37 Creative Warehouse
U37 this place on the surface does not look amazing, but go in will find hidden inside, can be said to be hidden in the city life in a paradise. The first feeling of coming here is that there are really few people, more locals inside, the shadow of the tourists can hardly be seen, really deep in my heart.
A *** there are old warehouses and office buildings *** counting 10 buildings, there are a lot of native trees, greening to do better. A walk around will find coffee shops, food stores, book bars, creative craft workshops, music venues, and a graffiti wall of more than 100 meters long, is a very suitable place for photos.

3, IBOX Container Creative Tribe
From the U37 Creative Warehouse out, do not need to take the car, ride a bicycle and follow the navigation will not be long to go. Want to come here, the purpose is very direct, is because it looks beautiful, colorful, straight female aesthetic, haha.
There are even fewer people here, mostly some working party in the studio. Extreme black, bright yellow, passionate red, melancholy blue, fresh green, carrying a camera and tripod, squatting, sitting, lying down, all the way to the wild shooting, what is the image, does not exist.
The reason why I like the atmosphere here is that I think there is the flavor of dreams. Don't think I'm being pompous, but when I was there, I stood for a long time in front of a guqin studio because I was captivated by the concentration of a little girl. The way she played the guqin was so serious. When her fingers brushed the strings, the sound of the strings came out. Then the guqin teacher saw me and came out and kindly said to me, "Go in and listen, you can sit inside." I felt warm in my heart, so I went in and had tea with them.
From the piano room out, I heard the sound of music, smelled the sound of the search, then found that it was two girls dancing. So I went over and sat next to them and watched for a long time. I felt that the dancers were very confident, and they didn't feel the least bit constrained when they saw me, telling me that they were dancing jazz, and that they were recording a video for the competition. Well, I really like this energetic feeling on them, and I almost want to dance with them, haha~

4, Sichuan Museum of Art
Generally when I go to a city, I choose to go to the local art museum. "Art is not a skill, he is the artist experienced the communication of feelings." Is a quote I really like. Most works of art reflect the truth of the creator's heart, they rarely lie. And as a viewer, I am satisfied if I can experience a little bit of it.
Chuan Mei's design is modern, resembling a sleeping "ruyi" from the front. Into the visit is not required tickets, with an ID card to exchange tickets to go in. Compared to the kind of money to rush over to the brainless look at the attractions, I prefer to come to such a small number of people and have the connotation and story of the place.

Coffee and Tea, stimulate the taste buds of the city to explore the storeOverlooking the panoramic view of the city from above; walking through the streets and alleys in search of all kinds of specialty cafes; walking into the old folk teahouse to taste a taste of authentic good tea. Have you done all these? Have done to see if we have met in a parallel world, have not done, do not worry, to take you together to explore the store Chengdu.
Chengdu is really hiding a lot of good stores. If you are serious about finding and experiencing them, it would take at least a month, if not more. This time to go is to spend two days, pick their favorite before going. Below to share with you (including address, per capita consumption, store features, etc.), there are some I looked for but did not have time to go, and share with you, there is a need for you do not have to be polite, please directly embrace away!
1, her and his high-altitude terrace CoffeeHouse
Here is the first push, because this place to shoot the night scene is super beautiful. If you don't believe me, let me put a picture for you to feel it.
She and He High Altitude Terrace CoffeeHouse Chengdu Viewing Mecca
This store is on the 32nd floor of an upscale residential building, it's not very easy to find, but someone will come down to pick you up after you call. I was so confident that I didn't call, but after following the navigation around, I couldn't find it, so I called and asked. Then it was a girl who came out to pick me up, who was very cute and told me that usually their first time customers there come down to pick them up.
When I went there, it was about 17:30 in the afternoon and it was still early. Because I was there to take pictures of the night view, I made a reservation for the terrace first. I ordered a cup of her own "passion fruit tea", which has a very strong flavor and is super delicious.
All I had to do was enjoy the moment. 18:00-21:00, three hours of shooting, watching the sunset, dusk, darkness, stars, drinking a cup of tea, reading a good book, and talking to strangers, that's how I like to travel.

This cafe should be the favorite cafe of the trip, because both the interior decoration, coffee, cocktails and desserts are all in the "cold wind". Here are some pictures to give you a taste.

The "Micro Nitrogen Cold Extraction" is made from Candle Mans coffee beans provided by 90+, the world's top raw bean supplier, roasted in medium-light, and then cold-extracted for 24 hours with a tiny amount of nitrogen. Other coffees use beans from Ethiopia, so you can choose according to your preference. The store isn't very big, but it's relatively easy to find, just down an alleyway next to Taikoo Li.

3. _Morning Snack
I mentioned this store above, so I'll post the details below. "_Morning Snacks" is close to "Don't have AnotherSpace" and is within walking distance, so you can experience it together.
This small, Japanese-style restaurant is not very big, but its business is booming. When I went there, it was not the peak time for dining, but there was only one single seat left. I was glad that I came alone, otherwise I would have to wait for a seat. The interior of the store has a forest-like feel, with simplicity and honesty as its most distinctive features. Next door is "_早书店", which specializes in independent magazines from home and abroad.
The reason I wanted to go here is because I learned that the owner of this store once said that he always reminds himself to concentrate on what he likes to do. Perhaps it's because I feel that sticking to your heart is a precious quality, so I wanted to come and take a look.

4. URBANPICNICCAFF
From "_早小食", we rode all the way to look for "如本". During the crowded May Day holiday, it's so satisfying to be able to walk through the quiet alleys with green trees, the sunset sky, the cool and warm breeze, and a piece of jazz or Korean indie music. Just close your eyes and open your arms.
The cafe is hidden away in the city, but the main color of the shop is white. The main color of the store is white, fresh Scandinavian style, clean and natural. When I went there, there were not many customers, and I felt lucky that I ran into one of the two shopkeepers that day. I have to say, this store manager is very handsome, and this kind of handsome is not limited to the face, but the temperament that radiates from himself, which is very unique. At that time, he smiled and asked me, "Hello, what can I get you?" "Hello, I would like a red velvet latte." I thought to myself as I answered him that a stranger's smile can really be genuine and warm.
Why did you choose to come to this store? Because the two managers of this store are a couple, haha, yes, the manager is married. The couple once traveled the world with a hand-pouring pot, and then chose to come to Chengdu to settle down and open this "URBANPICNICCAFF". I was curious to see what kind of store these two would open, so I came to find out. "Comfortable" and "at ease" is my feeling, there will not be too much intention here, just enjoy the real environment and be true to yourself. The love of two people, a coffee shop, so good.
Perhaps people who like to travel have a heart that loves life, have seen too many landscapes, experienced many unforgettable things, the inner richness will be manifested in a kind of outer peace, I think this is the reason why the shopkeeper gave me a warm and easy feeling. The world is full of troubles, but there are still people who live life as a poem. So, never lose a heart in pursuit of beautiful things, boldly go to do what you want to do it.

5, One Din Coffee
Going to this cafe was purely by chance, it was in the Broad and Narrow Alley, and I saw the store's sign saying "a man's cafe". The first thought that came to mind was "What? A man's cafe? What do you mean, a cafe where only men go to drink coffee? No, I'm a girl and I'm going to try it." Haha, I don't know why I thought that, I cried at my own stupidity.
It was learned that the coffee shop is owned by a man known as "Lao Ding". The old Ding's original name is "Ding Zhi", when the Wenchuan earthquake, he stayed here to open this cafe. With other cafes is different, a Ding coffee, only do a kind of coffee, that is, "Yunnan small grain coffee". He said this is for the "Chinese national pride". Later, he began to build libraries for children in the mountains, teaching a man to fish is better than teaching him to fish. Books are the children's window to the outside world. This is the old Ding's persistence.
Look, sometimes the story behind a cup of coffee is the real reason why it smells so good.

6, Crane Tea House
After exploring so many cafes, let's take you to tea next.
"If you don't enter Sichuan, you won't leave Shu", we all know that Chengdu is a very livable city. Some people say it's because the pace of life there is slow, but it's not. Rather, people here have a better mindset and a generally high happiness index. Chengdu people love to drink tea, and walking through the streets of Chengdu, there are countless tea houses of all sizes. But for the most authentic experience, you have to come to the "He Ming Tea House". A bowl of tea, a pot of boiling water, and then some melon seeds and other snacks, you can sit for half a day.
"Crane Tea House" is in People's Park in Chengdu. When I went there, it was more than ten o'clock in the morning, and there were already a lot of old people drinking tea and chatting and playing cards. Since I'm here, how can I not indulge myself with a cup of tea to pass the time?
"Sister, a cup of Xihu Longjing呗", just like this, drinking tea, watching the old people chat and people come and go, do not feel bored.

As one of Germany's top three boutique coffee brands, "FiveElephantCoffee" is Berlin's most famous coffee shop.

3, UIDCafe
The reason I want to visit this store is because I want to feel the Vintage culture inside. Here is a little popularization of "Vintage culture": refers to items with a history of more than 20 years, with distinctive signs of the times, such as mini dresses and pop art in the 1960s, the new feminine style launched by Dior in the 1950s, and the black-and-white geometric decorativism of the 1920s, etc. When it comes to clothing, it is known as Vintage. When expressed in clothing, it is known as vintage.
The predecessor of this store, a simple professional denim store, has gradually developed to cover three industries: clothing, design and culture. The tables and chairs in this store are all made of solid wood, red brick, brass, iron and leather combined in a very textured way. Mainly vintage biker style. When I went there at that time, I didn't go in because there were too many people and there was no more space. The store is still very large, friends who like this style can go to sit.

The reason why I want to go! This coffee shop, completely attracted by the words of the two young ladies who run the store together. "We don't blow our feelings, we don't sell our dreams, all we want is that Wow!" Haha, we thought it was cute at the time.
The store's pink walls are dreamy, and from the outside this is a very distinctive girly pink coffee house. It's a store that local people in Chengdu love to go to.

Above all, this is the coffee shop and tea house recommended to you. In fact, there are many other coffee shops in Chengdu with special features and stories, so I will have to wait until next time to go and find out what they are all about, and maybe that's one of the reasons why I want to go to Chengdu again.
You at night, the poison of my falling starsThe reason for this seductive title is that I was really tempted to go to Chengdu this time. Well, please let your imagination run wild. Who was it that mesmerized me, intoxicated me and made me fall?
The answer is: Chengdu at night.
Since I got into photography, I've enjoyed doing one thing - climbing high to take night shots. But since I live in a city where there is less to photograph, I don't get many opportunities to practice. So when I arrived in Chengdu, one of the things I did most every night was to travel through the dark night and climb high! Here are some of the more beautiful places to take night shots in Chengdu.
1, Sichuan Radio and Television Building
2, Tian Zi Jie Plaza (55th floor)
3, Jiouye Qiao
4, Tianfu Overpass
5, CoffeeHouse (32nd floor), Her and His Aerial Terrace

Who do I think of when I climb to the top of Emei MountainI don't know why, but I've always been a fan of climbing high to see the scenery. This is true when you are in a good mood and also when you are in a bad mood. Perhaps only when I stand in a high place and look into the distance, I can thoroughly enjoy that kind of soul deep sense of solitude. Just like the lyrics of the song "lend me solitude as I first saw, lend me freshness without fear of crushing", climbing high can give me strength. Doing nothing but standing at the top of the mountain for a long time is already enough. So this time in Chengdu, Emei Mountain is how I will not miss.
Don't like to go with a group, I chose to go alone. The first night I booked a train ticket to Emeishan, the next day 7:20 train, so I got up early. In the early morning of 6 o'clock in Chengdu, I sat on the taxi to the station, rolled down the window, looking at the city is still sleeping, feel the coolness of the air, a little shaken. Walking around alone and seeing the sights, I asked myself what it was really like.
Is it lonely? I'm not sure if I'll be able to do that. This kind of loneliness in the noisy crowd will not have, but it will appear in the quiet of the night, appeared in the see the beauty of the moment want to share with others. But what about loneliness? Apart from loneliness, it's a sense of accomplishment and confidence. I think I'm coolest when I'm traveling alone. I feel the coolest when I'm traveling alone. I don't have to care about anything, even if I'm just sitting on the side of the road eating instant noodles and watching people go by. Because that's the way I am, the way I really am.
This is how I got to the train station, and I finally got on the train to Mount Emei. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get to Emeishan, but I'm sure I'm going to be able to get to Emeishan without having to go to the airport.

In fact, at that time and other people carpooled, hustling that person previously asked me to 300, I said brother you do not tease, I give you 100 you will not lose, 300 a little inappropriate it. Big brother said today too much traffic, 300 can not be lower, so I turned my head and left, waiting for him to call me. I'm not sure what to expect, the last 100 deal, and I was traveling with the carpool of four other people, and then I realized that the person who asked them to ask for 700. so go out, we must pay attention to, don't be fooled and so on.
2), this section of the road is very bad, all the way up the mountain, whether it is a friend of the self-driving or chartered friends, please be sure to pay attention to safety. This time friends
