    "At noon, I went to the queue for Huahua. I was told that the weather was hot and Huahua went home early. I could only let my Menglan and Huahua's dining table to take a photo. It was also considered! Hey 😑 The cats in the villa area have returned to the inner house, and the bears have not seen 😭. The original base is so big! It’s not a cat powder that is not a horse to watch the flowers or go early in the morning, otherwise it can’t be finished. Ms. Chen Yuanrun and Xiaotianbao didn’t see that they were not very comfortable."

    "Dujiangyan Scenic Area is very large. I chose to go downstairs from Qinyan. This is more efficient. It is all downhill. I chose a battery car. The weather is good and the visibility is very high. There are too many teams. It feels a bit messy and the overall feeling is good."
    Dujiangyan.Dujiangyan Scenic Area
    57.9km from downtown
    Highlights: The Dujiangyan Irrigation System is located along the main branch of the Lancang River, west of Dujiangyan City. It was constructed in the Qin dynasty around 256 BC by Li Bing, Prefecture Chief of Shu County, and his son. It is one of the few ancient Chinese water conservancy projects that has remained preserved and intact. The project consists of three primary works—Yuzui Diverting Embankment, the Feishayan Spillway, and the Baopingkou Water Inlet, and two secondary works which include the Baizhangdi (the thousand-feet dam) and Renzidi (the y-shaped dam). They divide the Yongjiang River into an outer and an inner branch, the former of which is used to divert floods and the latter for irrigation. This has allowed the Western Sichuan plateau to become "the land of abundance" as we now know it.

    "It is worth going, not big, but very story. There is also a bonsai park, which is enough to go around for a long time. The red wall is a must-have photo. Next to it is the ancient architectural area of Jinli, where you can eat and drink, and you can also drink tea to watch the play."
    Chengdu.Wuhou Temple Commercial Area
    2.1km from downtown

When it was first constructed, it was adjacent to Liu Bei’s Han Zhao Lie Temple, but It was later incorporated into the Han Zhao Lie Temple during the Ming Dynasty and became a rare temple in China that commemorates both a ruler and his subordinates in the same compound. The cultural relics area is composed of the Huiling Mausoleum, Han Zhaolie Temple, Wuhou Temple, and Sanyi Temple. The main building is Wuhou Temple, which enshrines Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and other heroes of the Shu-Han Kingdom. Chengdu's famous landscape "Red Wall and Shadows of Bamboo" is also in the scenic area. Do take some photos when you are there!

    "A famous mountain that I have long admired, this time finally came. Qingcheng is quiet, there is no better copywriting to depict, the air is very good, and it is not too tired to stop and stop. It is recommended to ask a tour guide or bring a tour guide. Historic and interesting may be stronger."
