Tour 'Wow' Points
Dujiangyan Irrigation System
Located on the Min River in the western part of the Chengdu Plain, in Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province, this ancient irrigation system was built during the late reign of King Zhao of the Qin Dynasty. It was designed and constructed by local official Li Bing and his son, building on the earlier work of a man named Bieli. The system consists of key components like the Fish Mouth Levee, Flying Sand Weir, and Bottle-Neck Channel. For over 2,000 years, it has played a vital role in flood control and irrigation, transforming the Chengdu Plain into a fertile land known as the “Land of Abundance.” Today, it continues to irrigate more than 10 million acres across 30 counties and cities. It is the oldest, largest, and only functioning no-dam water diversion system in the world, a testament to the wisdom and ingenuity of ancient Chinese engineering.
Chunxi Road
Chunxi Road is Chengdu’s most popular district, where modern attractions mix with local street snacks and traditional teahouses. While enjoying authentic Sichuan cuisine, you can also find panda-themed shops and souvenirs, adding a fun touch to the vibrant atmosphere of the city and its beloved pandas.
