We visited the Sichuan Cuisine Museum as part of a day tour and thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon here. As well as exploring the vast array of antiques and history of everything to do with Sichuan food and cooking, you also get to enjoy a number of "snack stops" as you walk around the site. This was a great way to enjoy some of the local delicacies.
We also enjoyed learning how to cook 3 Sichuan dishes before sitting down to enjoy our meal. This part was an absolute blast in a very modern and clean kitchen!
If you love your spicy food or enjoy cooking make sure you check this place out whilst in Chengdu.

We went there expecting to see dirt. And dirt we did see, but because we paid for an English speaking guide we could understand so much more about the site, the history of the people, and the future plans for the site. It brought to life the dirt and beautiful artifacts. We took a 7yo and 3yo. After the "dirt" section the 3yo got bored but the guide made it interesting enough for adults and 7yo throughout. Highly recommend for 2 hours worth of time.

Both were closed when we arrived around 7pm. But it had some great places to take place photos and a cute little garden area.

Nitpickers will always find something annoying or negative about this show. But, we found it to be an outstanding experience overall. The shadow performance, the face-changers and the man playing the two-string Chinese instrument to me were the highlights. It's not the Shanghai Circus. It is, for lack of better description, a variety show, and a very colorfully costumed one at that. The performers are representative of local talents, meaning somewhat traditional Chinese performance art that isn't seen many other places. You won't like all of it, but you will love the other parts. One of the face-changers came up to my wife and demonstrated his blink-of-an-eye ability to change masks. Next to the Pandas, this was our second favorite memory of Chengdu.

I went there with some of my friends, despite the fact that is located in China, the park is not crowded at all except the Spring Festival (Chinese new year) period. The entrance is a little bit overpriced 190RMB, the attractions are good, but it can happen that sometimes some are closed for maintenance which is a pity. Big but not huge.

There was another surprise for us here. The place was very beautiful but there weren’t that many people here and the 60RMB price was cut in half. There must’ve been some special promotion going on in Chengdu during Christmas time because many attractions were half off. I sure didn’t mind that at all. The grounds were absolutely stunning and people weren’t pushing and shoving so the Memorial is an excellent place to come and unwind, relax and enjoy some pleasant Gardens and trees.
