W
hen you think of Chengdu,
what springs to mind?
Cuddly pandas and fiery
food? So it was with much
excitement that my five-year-old and I
set off on our trip to Chengdu, she with
dreams of cuddling a panda and me with
dreams of big bowls of Sichuan delights.
Located in the south west of China,
Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan
province. At just over two hours flying
time from Hong Kong, it is an easy
destination to add to your China travel
bucket list. Just don’t forget to organise
your tourist visa in advance!
Pandas
and spice,
and all
things
nice…
Giant fluffy pandas and
delicious spicy food are
two perfect ingredients for
a minibreak in Chengdu,
