Overview
Chengdu Cultural Park is located in Qintai Road, Chengdu City, adjacent to Qingyang Palace. It was rebuilt on the old site of Erxian Temple in 1951 and covers an area of 150 mu. There are 12 Bridges Martyrs'Tombs in the park, which commemorate 36 martyrs who were secretly killed by Kuomintang agents on the eve of Chengdu liberation. They are provincial cultural relics protection units. The Park was rated as a provincial key Park in March 2018.
Development
In the early 1950s, in order to hold traditional flower fairs, the city government opened the fields near the Qingyang Palace into flower fairs, holding flower exhibitions while selling flowers, trees and native products from all over the country. After the 8th Flower Fair in 1958, Qingyang Palace Garden was established. In 1966, the city government approved the renaming of Chengdu Cultural Park. Cultural parks are famous for holding traditional lantern and flower fairs. The annual Lantern and Flower Festival is a cultural heritage of Chengdu as a famous historical and cultural city. From ancient times to the present, Chengdu people's feelings are placed in it.
Highlight
Flower festivals
In every spring and autumn, flower festivals with different themes are open to everyone. Tens of thousands of bonsai of various kinds and colors such as peonies, azaleas, begonias, geraniums, pansies, carnation and so on would lead visitors to believe they are in a wonderland. The decorative flower models are impressive, which are of different sizes and shapes. For instance, there are huge carnation flower models made from hundreds of small ones; yet there are also animal models like shrimps made from orange flowers. More than that, visitors can expect to watch a fabulous show of flower arrangement by local folks who have made this art. During the flower festivals, singing, dancing and acrobatics performances in this park are another choice of entertainment. Meanwhile, there are also photography and Chinese calligraphy displays. For gourmets, food exhibitions with local characteristics won’t be disappointing.
Lantern Festival Carnival
During Chinese Spring Festival, there is also a lantern festival carnival at night. With colorful lights and interesting lanterns, local people use their own way to celebrate the New Year until late night. Usually, there is also a lantern riddle solving contest.
Shu Feng Ya Yun Tea House
Shu Feng Ya Yun tea house provides a wide range of traditional Chinese entertainment ranging from Sichuan Opera, wind and string instruments, comedy skits to incredible juggling. Visitors can enjoy Sichuan Opera with mask-changing, fire spitting, Chinese traditional music and opera costumes here. There is also hand shadow show to amuse customers. All these are integral parts in Chinese opera culture.
The Great Art Relief Wall
It is 12 meters high and more than 80 meters wide. The relief wall displays vividly hundreds of figures with different poses and from different dynasties. The wall also reflects Chengdu people’s traditions of appreciating flowers and lanterns which have lasted for thousands of years, dating back to Han Dynasty (BC206 --220). The relief wall stands out in both exquisiteness and scale. In addition to that, it carries the cultural significance of Chengdu with it.
Zhiji Stone
This stone is 2.12 meters high, 0.8 meters wide with big base yet small head. It is brown. According to folk legend, it was for a fairy maiden who got married with a common cowherd to weave, thus it was from the Heaven. According to history, the huge stone was used for sacrificial ceremonies in ancient times from the tomb of ancient king of Shoo.
The Pavilion of the Eight Trigrams
This pavilion features eight stone pillars carved with dragon patterns. On the base of the pavilion, there are elaborate paintings of flowers, feathers, and beasts. On the dome, colorful paintings make this pavilion grand; while on the outside, the green tiles in ancient fashion make this pavilion elegant.

Duration：6-8 Hours
Attractions(Cities)： Chengdu Panda Research Base, People's Park, Jinli Ancient Street, Kuanzhai Alley
Tour Style：One day, one private car, and an English-speaking local guide who has already booked every ticket on the list. Mornings start early at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding so you catch the pandas while they are still active; after that, the pace slows to a hillside teahouse in Renmin Park, gaiwan jasmine tea in hand. Between the two you walk Jinli's lantern-lit lane and finish in Kuanzhai Alley, where restored Qing courtyards now sit alongside small shops and tea rooms. Pick-up and drop-off match your schedule — a Chengdu hotel, a train station, or the airport.
Duration：8 Hours
Attractions(Cities)：Chengdu Giant Panda Research Base, Leshan Giant Buddha
Tour Style：Two UNESCO-listed sights on one private day out of Chengdu. The morning starts at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding while the animals are still active in the cool hours, then the driver takes you south along the expressway to Leshan, where a 71-metre stone Buddha carved between 713 and 803 AD still stands at the junction of three rivers. Walk the Nine Bends Plank Road, take the river boat, or do both. English-speaking local guide, private air-conditioned car with an experienced driver, Panda Base and Leshan tickets included, hotel, train station, or airport pick-up.
Duration：2 Days, 1 Night
Attractions(Cities)：Chengdu Panda Base, Renmin Park, Wuhou Temple, Jinli Street, Wenshu Monastery, Chengdu Museum, Tianfu Square
Tour Style：This two-day private tour moves between the old and new faces of Chengdu at your own pace. Day 1 starts at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in the morning, when the pandas are feeding, then takes in the teahouse scene at Renmin Park, the Three Kingdoms shrines of Wuhou Temple, and the snack stalls and craft shops of Jinli Ancient Street. Day 2 covers the Buddhist halls of Wenshu Monastery, the collections of the Chengdu Museum, and the modern plaza at Tianfu Square. A private car and an English-speaking guide carry you between all of them, with pickup from your hotel, train station, or the airport, and the daily order flexes if you want longer at the panda base or a slower teahouse stop. Lunch is left open so your guide can point you to local kitchens rather than tourist menus.
Duration：8-9 Hours
Attractions(Cities)：Dujiangyan, Qingcheng Mountain
Tour Style：This day trip pairs two UNESCO-listed sights west of Chengdu: the Dujiangyan Irrigation System and Qingcheng Mountain. A private car and driver collect you from your hotel, train station, or the airport and stop first at Dujiangyan, where an English-speaking guide walks you through the 256 BC waterworks that Li Bing and his son built without a dam, still carrying Min River water onto the Chengdu plain after more than 2,000 years. You see the Fish Mouth levee, Flying Sand Reef, and Bottle Neck channel up close. After lunch you drive to Qingcheng Mountain, a founding site of Taoism, and take the cable car and stone paths past the front-mountain temples. Lunch is left out on purpose so your guide can point you to a local Sichuan kitchen; pace, photo stops, and vegetarian or lighter requests are easy to adjust on a private tour.
Duration：3 Days 2 Nights
Attractions(Cities)：Leshan Giant Buddha, Mount Emei, Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, Renmin Park, Jinli Ancient Street, Kuanzhai Alley
Tour Style：This three-day private tour pairs Chengdu with two mountain and heritage sights. Day one covers the Giant Panda Breeding Research Base in the morning, then Renmin Park teahouse, Jinli Ancient Street, and Kuanzhai Alley. Day two drives about two hours to the 71-metre Leshan Giant Buddha, seen from the cliff path or a Dadu River boat, then on to an overnight at the foot of Mount Emei. Day three rises by eco-bus and cable car to the Golden Summit at 3,077 metres and the old temples before the return to Chengdu. A private car, driver, and English-speaking guide handle tickets and transfers, and pick-up and drop-off run from your Chengdu hotel, station, or airport.
