Sichuan University

Reviewed By mikeylr - Chongqing, China

I've assisted my senior to conduct their experiment here until I get my own; we use a high-speed train and safely arrived here. This area is vast, and autumn is suitable for having a short walk here. You can use a sharing bike to get inside and ask the people inside. The Chinese students are welcoming me and helpful also; they have assisted me well. Thank you????

Chengdu Culture Park

Reviewed By alexandrapN47NI - Greater London, United Kingdom

Locally known as People's Park better known as Renmin Park located in the centre of Chengdu Qinyang District Chengdu in the Sichuan District known also as Shaocheng Park in existence since 1911 the first park measures 112639 square metres 1,212,440 square feet. There are very many delights to enjoy around and about such as the 100 year old Heming Tea House Qing Dynasty in the middle of the koi filled artificial lake where you can order an authentic green tea and even get your ears cleaned from wax. In very many different areas exist small gardens where there is singing dancing musical instruments playing people playing cards Mahjong Tai Chi practice even an over 30's lonely hearts club where the youth display handwritten papers listing their abilities and preferences a sort of Blind Date. For the more energetic in and around Memorial Square is the brilliant hand foot elbow knee shuttlecock game which is good for keep fit agile and out of mischief. The Monument was built 1913 - 1914 in memory to the Martyrs of the Railway and marks the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty and the establishment of the People's Republic of China. In 1950 the new Communist Party renamed the Park People's Park and reopened it in 1952. There is also a monument to the Sichuan Army Martyrs of War of Resistance against Japan and also a small museum. If you are a horticultural fanatic it is brilliant for lotus in the Summer and Chrysanthemums in the Autumn which we were lucky enough to see in all their splendid colours and varying shapes and sizes. There is also a bonsai garden. This actually is not considered to be a tourist attraction site but I was extremely happy to visit as this is more an insight into local daily life where culture and entertainment merge.

Anshun Bridge (Dongmen Bridge)

Reviewed By InnaYYZ - Toronto, Canada

One of the most beautiful bridges in the world. it is most awesome when lit up at night. Beautiful in many was, including the architecture, the statues of creatures standing above the waterline, the openings for water-traffic, the building structure atop the functional bridge portion, etc.
