Chengdu Vacation Guide
An often quoted Chinese saying is, “Once you come to Chengdu, you will not want to leave”. This can be attributed a lot to the enviable, relaxed lifestyle enjoyed by locals and foreigners in a recreational and unhurried tourist city, surrounded by many rivers such as the Funan and the Sha. Famous scenic spots such as Wuhou Temple and Du Fu Thatched Cottage enrich the cultural background of Chengdu. Not far away, Qingcheng Mountain and Snowy Mount Xiling act as summer resorts for the urbanites. World mixed cultural and natural sites, such as Jiuzhaigou Gullies, Leshan and Mount Emei, have been acknowledged by UNESCO as being of great heritage value & significance in relating miracles of the native people’s past & present.
Lying in the central part of Sichuan Province, Chengdu is located near the edge of the west of Sichuan basin, with sloping terrain from northwest to southeast. The deep mounds & mountains are the dominating terrain in the west, with an altitude mostly between one thousand to three thousand metres. As a key traffic hinge in southwest China, hometown of the giant panda & delicious spicy food; the provincial capital city Chengdu is an easy place to enter Sichuan & neighbouring Tibet. The climate is warm, with plentiful rainfall & a clear distinction between the four seasons. The hottest weather is during July & August with monthly average temperatures between 25 & 35 degrees celsius. January is coldest with an average temperature of 5.6 degrees
