Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan Province and famous for being more laid-back than most other bustling Chinese cities. It is the gateway to the country’s western hinterlands and is where many residents can be seen relaxing playing mahjong in the park.
Chengdu has a long history dating back to around the 4th century B.C. when it was the capital of the Shu Kingdom. Artefacts from this era can be found in the Jinsha Site Museum, but it is the famous giant panda breeding research base that attract most visitors, with over 200 pandas residing here in their natural habitat.
