🧋 Chengdu City Vibes

📍 Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China ⸻ Just came back from exploring IFS Chengdu & Tianfu Square — the heart of the city where modern luxury meets ancient chill. 🏙️✨ 🛍️ IFS: High-end shopping, rooftop panda statue (yes, that giant panda climbing the mall), and Instagram-worthy corners. 🏛️ Tianfu Center: More of Chengdu’s local rhythm. Chill vibe, open spaces, and the perfect starting point for a walking tour. ⸻ 🥢 Foodie’s Heaven: ✅ Tried the local street food – spicy, numbing, unforgettable ✅ Sipped on that iconic Shan Shan fruit tea (10/10 recommend after hotpot!) ✅ Explored hidden alleys with dan dan noodles, skewers, and saw rabbit heads (yes, it’s a thing that I will never eat) ⸻ 🔥 Chengdu is not just panda land – it’s culture, spice, and slow living. Even the busy city feels laid back. People take their time, drink tea, play mahjong, and eat really well. ⸻ Next Stop: Dujiangyan Irrigation System – time to mix the city vibes with a 2,000-year-old engineering flex 🌊🛕 #chengduvibes #ifschengdu #tianfusquare #sichuaneats #spicyheaven #tealife #chinatravel #pandacity
