Visited four places and still had time to stroll around leisurely, feeling that my planning was just perfect. Chengdu to Yanzuo Zen Temple 1.5 hours, playtime 1 hour. The flowers should bloom perfectly in another half a month. It was already crowded when I arrived at ten today, so I suggest getting there by nine. Everyone needs to make a reservation to enter the park. The ice cream is very pretty. Nianhua Village takes 0.5 hours by car, playtime 1-2 hours. Since there are not many people, it's just a quiet village. Festive New Year paintings can be seen everywhere on the walls. It probably feels even more seasonal in winter. Last year I tried woodblock printing at the experience hall; white paper for five yuan, red paper for eight, and gold characters for ten. There are a few firewood chicken restaurants at the entrance that seem to be doing good business and smell quite fragrant. Taiping Reservoir takes 0.5 hours by car, playtime 1 hour. Park the car below the dam and walk up the stairs to see the open water surface. You can walk around the reservoir in about an hour. The last part features a small waterfall. There's a place selling cold noodles and jelly noodles in the parking area, surprisingly tasty for six yuan a serving. Mianzhu National Rose Park takes 0.5 hours by car, playtime 3-4 hours. Bought tickets online the day before, 20 yuan per person. Upon entering the park, you first see the green landscape and lawns, which are very comfortable to walk around. Over the hill is a castle 🏰, followed by a large rose garden. Although the roses are a bit past their peak, the park is very large, so remember to wear sunscreen.
