Beichuan Earthquake Historic Site

Reviewed By dvaldivia2019 - Santiago, Chile

All of the damaged buildings are well preserved to teach to the world what would be the real impact of an earthquake and the landslides associated. The experience is emotionally exhausting and overwhelming, but it completely worths If you are in Chengdu, Beichuan or even in the Sichuan province you must go here.

Jinsha Site Museum

Reviewed By ggm96822 - Honolulu, United States

A wonderful island of calm, with the ebony forest, bamboo grove, waterscape and stone path all unexpected treats in addition to the very well explained archaeology site - some of the best English explanatory signs that I have seen anywhere. (I also liked the "No Striding" signs to keep people from stepping over the handrails. Both the housing and the relic display building are very well designed, the collection is displayed very attractively.

We had a wonderful visit to the Sichuan Cuisine Museum, starting with a guided tour and culminating in an amazing cooking class, where we were taught how to cook Mapo Tofu (one of my all time favorite dishes), Gongbao Chicken, and "Panda" buns filled with sweet bean paste. Much of the prep work is done in advance, so you can focus on the main steps of preparation. Special thanks to our guide/teacher He Shencheng (何莘澄), who was fantastic!
