Chengdu is not only a hot pot, but also some beautiful scenery you will like waiting for you. In fact, there are many good towns around Chengdu, and the scenery of these towns will really make people yearn for it. Let's go and see what they are.

Wufengxi ancient town

Splash ink like the beauty of mountains and rivers.

In Wufengxi Ancient Town, Jintang, mottled wooden houses are hidden in the jungle of mountain streams and disappeared in the tea ceremony of Qintai, like a fine China landscape painting splashed with ink, lifelike and full of spirituality. Walking slowly in the sunset, there are three or two boats scattered in the river. Because the town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, there is a stilt style in Sichuan. Come here for a weekend, quiet and beautiful ~

In addition to appreciating the charm of the ancient town, I also recommend trying some special dishes here. "Tuojiang Silver Carp" is spicy and delicious, with dried radish and peas. There is nothing more pleasant than sitting in a teahouse with a bowl of street snacks and a pound of fresh fruit in season!
