Itinerary

Kuanzhai Alley

Begin your journey at Kuanzhai Alleys, where history meets modernity. Enter via Wide Alley and admire the relief carvings at No. 19 Demen Renli, a classic Western Sichuan courtyard gate. Wander into Narrow Alley for modern Chengdu vibes: relax in a bamboo chair at Sanlian Taofen Bookstore with an English copy of 《Three Cities》, or sip coffee at %Arabica while admiring the contrast of blue brick walls. Send postcards at the Panda Post Office in the alley. Learn about the "philosophy of width & narrowness" – Wide Alley housed officials, Narrow Alley hosted bannermen, and Well Alley (Jingxiangzi) was for commoners.

Next, head to People’s Park. Try the "three-piece set" – bamboo chair, gaiwan tea, and ear cleaning (采耳) at Heming Teahouse. Observe the unique Chinese social phenomenon of 相亲角 (Blind Date Corner) and learn about its cultural context. Watch long-spouted teapot tea art performances or learn simple mahjong rules.

Chengdu Museum New Building

Continue to the Chengdu Museum. Explore the Qin-Han Gallery, Folk Culture Gallery, and Shadow Puppetry Exhibition. Operate Three Kingdoms-themed shadow puppets to shoot fun short videos.
