For the Labor Day holiday, Chengdu is a popular city that's perfect for a family trip.

Here's a travel guide: Recommended attractions • Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding: See adorable giant pandas at 1375 Panda Avenue, outside the northern section of Chenghua District. It's best to go early to see the pandas when they're more active. • Wuhou Shrine: A shrine commemorating Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han state during the Three Kingdoms period. It features a "red wall and bamboo shadows" and a rich cultural atmosphere. It's located at 231 Wuhouci Street, Wuhou District. • Jinli Ancient Street: Right next to Wuhou Shrine, this ancient street has many snacks and handicraft shops. It's lively at night and open all day. • Kuanzhai Alley: Made up of three parallel Qing Dynasty-era ancient streets in western Sichuan: Kuan Alley, Zhai Alley, and Jing Alley. Experience the traditional leisurely lifestyle of Chengdu at 27 Kuan Alley, Qingyang District. • Du Fu Thatched Cottage: The former residence of Du Fu, where he lived for nearly four years. The garden has a classic layout and a strong poetic atmosphere. It's located at 37 Qinghua Road, Qingyang District. • Chunxi Road: The most representative commercial street in Chengdu, where you can shop, eat snacks, and see beautiful people. It's located in Jinjiang District. Taikoo Li is adjacent to Chunxi Road and retains ancient streets and historical buildings, combining fashion and classic elements. Recommended food • Hot pot: Xiao Long Kan, Da Yu Hot Pot, and Shu Da Xia are all well-known brands. Choose according to your location and preferences. • Sichuan restaurants: Mawanzi·Chuan Xiaoguan is a century-old restaurant, Luji Zhengjie Restaurant·Chuan Xiang Cuisine has a history of over 40 years, and Taolin Restaurant serves intangible cultural heritage Sichuan cuisine. All offer authentic Sichuan dishes. • Featured snacks: Gan Shi Ji·Chengdu Feichang Fen's feichang fen (vermicelli with pork intestines) is very authentic, Xiyuecheng Tan Douhua's sanzi douhua (fried dough twist with tofu pudding) is a signature dish, and Shentang Sweetwater Noodles' sweetwater noodles are excellent. Accommodation recommendations • Luxury: Six Senses Qing Cheng Mountain, The Temple House Chengdu, Waldorf Astoria Chengdu, etc. • Family-friendly: Seaview Hotel Chengdu, InterContinental Chengdu Global Center, Shangri-La Hotel Chengdu, etc. • Scenic views: Shangri-La Hotel Chengdu, Capa Hotel Chengdu Dong'an Lake, Grand Darong Hotel Chengdu East Lake, etc. Transportation guide Chengdu has convenient transportation.

Line 1 runs north-south, Line 2 goes directly to Chunxi Road and the East Railway Station, and Line 3 connects Wuhou Shrine, Jinli, and the Panda Base.
