Beichuan Earthquake Historic Site

Reviewed By dvaldivia2019 - Santiago, Chile

All of the damaged buildings are well preserved to teach to the world what would be the real impact of an earthquake and the landslides associated. The experience is emotionally exhausting and overwhelming, but it completely worths If you are in Chengdu, Beichuan or even in the Sichuan province you must go here.

Dujiangyan Irrigation System

The historical irrigation system dates back to the 3rd century B.C and still functions.

Reviewed By ursbruno - Basel, Switzerland

We came by taxi from the Qingcheng Mountain Base to the Main Entrance (40 RMB). At the entrance is a special desk for foreigners with a English speaking person. We enjoyed the walk on the hanging bridge over the Feishayan Spillway, where during the flooding season the stone and sand will be deposited. We followed the Eastern Road on the Fish, the divider of the inner and outer River. We reached a food area, where we enjoyed local dishes with a Harbin Beer. Further up the island you reach the Yuzui Water dividing Dike. The inner River will bring the water to the Chengdu plain for irrigation, and the outer river will bring away the additional flood water in rainy saison, avoiding the flooding of the Chengdu area for over 2000 years! Over the Anlan Suspension Bridge we reached the path to the Julei Pass, where you have a good view over the whole Dujiangyan Scenic Area. On the way down you reach the Shidian Temple and the antique town. Walking down the main street with many shops and food outlets, you reach the ancient Gate. Walk through the gate, cross the bridge ahead and turn right into the open park. Cross the park and turn right on the street ahead. After crossing the bride you see on the right hand side a glas covered stairway, leading down to the Lidui Park Station, where you can take the High Speed Train back to Chengdu (20 RMB). Calculate 3 hours or more for an enjoyable excursion within the Lidui Park.
