There are many cute giant pandas in the base. You can watch these adorable national treasures up close. The base is located in the northern suburbs of Chengdu, about 10 kilometers away from the urban area. The construction of the base fully mimics the wild living environment of giant pandas, with lakes, streams, bamboo forests, lawns, etc. There are many "panda villas" in the base, which are enclosed leisure places for pandas. There are open-air gardens and indoor rest rooms. When the weather is cool, giant pandas will play in the gardens, and visitors can watch the cute giant pandas through the railing; when the weather is hot, the giant pandas will hide in the air-conditioned rest rooms, and at this time, visitors can only watch them through the glass. Can you also see pandas in the new area of the Panda Base? Are there other things to do? You can also see pandas in the new area of the Panda Base, and they are our meritorious pandas. The pandas have bigger homes and more space to move around. Watching pandas is the main activity, and there are also many other things to do and see. You must visit our landmark building - the internet-famous Panda Tower. As a new landmark building in Chengdu, it is located at the highest point of the base. The tower is 69.8 meters high and has 11 floors. Its exterior looks like a big bamboo shoot, and its interior is shaped like a blooming hibiscus flower. There are 81 platforms inside for visitors to view the base scenery from multiple angles. There is also the art museum (new building) in the dense forest area of the new area, which uses new exhibition methods such as multi-sensory interaction, lighting installations, interactive devices, and thermal induction to create an immersive exhibition scenario for visitors. The new area of the Panda Base plans to set up a rich variety of popular science display boards and interactive facilities in four major areas. While watching the giant pandas, visitors can learn about giant panda knowledge and enhance their interactive experience. On festivals related to animal and environmental protection, themed popular science activities such as interactive lectures, parent-child science popularization, and exploration games will be held for visitors of different age groups. After getting tired from playing, you can go to watch the musical - "Pandas", which vividly presents the scene of the magical animals represented by giant pandas living in harmony, sharing nature, and loving life on this beautiful and fertile land in Chengdu, Sichuan. Through the form of the musical, it reflects the livable scenery of Chengdu, Sichuan, and the simple and comfortable life of the local people. In terms of the total area, it has increased from the original 1,035 mu to 3,570 mu, an expansion of 2.5 times. During the expansion, the original topography and landform were fully followed and utilized. A multi-level landscape belt of mountain valleys formed by mountain gullies and streams was used to build 11 giant panda venues, multiple popular science venues, and a tourist pedestrian street and other visiting places. After the completion of the expansion project, it can accommodate no less than 180 giant pandas and associated animals such as red pandas and golden monkeys. As of now, 67 giant pandas and 43 red pandas have moved into the "new homes" in the expansion area, and there will be rare animals such as golden monkeys waiting for everyone in the future. Are the supporting facilities in the new area perfect? In the design of the new area, sufficient tourist service facilities are provided according to the standards of a 5A scenic area. Not only basic facilities such as sightseeing buses and tourist toilets are provided, but also a large number of tourist service facilities are equipped in the hill commercial street, the exit commercial street, and scattered commercial buildings in each area. The planned business forms include catering, souvenir sales, postal services, cinemas, theaters, extended education, etc., which can meet the needs of tourists in terms of quantity. After nearly a year of operation, in response to the actual problems of the large area of the new area and the uneven distribution of supporting facilities, the base has added many beverage vending machines, direct drinking water machines, shared convenience service facilities, etc. in the new area to improve the tourist experience. Next, the base will further supplement and improve the tourist rest facilities, consultation service facilities, tour guide facilities, etc. to meet the needs of tourists. The expanded Chengdu Panda Base will help Chengdu build a demonstration area for the harmonious coexistence of humans and nature, improve the scientific research and protection conditions for giant pandas, protect biodiversity, fully highlight the brand value, cultural value, and economic value of giant pandas, and shape the cultural and tourism brand of "Three Treasures of Sichuan - Comfortable Journey in Sichuan". In 2022, new business forms and projects such as the Panda Art Museum, IMAX Cinema, and Panda Theatre will be gradually opened in the expansion area, meeting the tourists' needs for food, drink, entertainment, shopping, and touring while watching the giant pandas. Firstly, it is more conducive to the scientific research and protection of pandas. As a national protected animal, the giant panda is gentle in nature, has an adorable appearance, and its movements are amusing, so it is deeply loved by the people. However, with the continuous increase in the number of giant pandas, problems such as high population density and the inability to fully improve animal welfare in the panda breeding and management work in the old area of the base have become increasingly obvious. The completion and operation of the new area of the Panda Base can effectively solve the above problems, comprehensively improve the scientific research and protection level of giant pandas in the Panda Base, and effectively safeguard the welfare of the animals in the park. Secondly, it is more conducive to enhancing the people's sense of well-being and gain. As socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, the principal contradiction in society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people's ever-growing need for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development. Currently, tourism has become a rigid demand for the people's better life in a well-off society and is widely favored by the people. The construction of the new area of the base conforms to the new trend of the transformation and upgrading of people's tourism consumption, effectively meets the people's high-quality and diversified needs for tourism consumption, and enhances the people's sense of well-being and gain. Thirdly, it is more conducive to creating a giant panda characteristic IP and helping the construction of the park city demonstration area. Since the establishment of the old area of the base in 1987, it has achieved internationally recognized results in giant panda scientific research and protection, popular science education, cultural tourism, and international exchanges. It is recognized both at home and abroad as a demonstration unit for the ex-situ conservation of giant pandas with strong scientific and technological strength, many scientific and technological achievements, and good application and promotion effects in captive giant panda protection. It has been successively rated as an "Advanced Collective in National Popular Science Work", a "National Youth Science and Technology Education Base", a "National Popular Science Education Base", a "National Environmental Protection Popular Science Base", a "Cross-Straits Exchange and Cooperation Base", has undertaken the "Key Project of Cultural Exchanges of the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee" twice, and has won the United Nations "Global 500" award twice. The construction of the new area of the base will effectively enhance the image of China's tourism brand, build a giant panda characteristic IP with international recognition, and help Chengdu accelerate the construction of a world-famous cultural city and a park city demonstration area that practices the new development concept.

Top3.Du Fu Thatched Cottage

0 Reviews

It is the former residence of Du Fu, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, when he lived in Chengdu. Du Fu lived here for nearly four years and created over a hundred poems. Therefore, this place is regarded as a “sacred land” in the history of Chinese literature. The current Du Fu Thatched Cottage was repaired many times during the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. The cottage is located on the bank of the Huanhua River outside the west gate of Chengdu. There are numerous pavilions and ancient trees in the garden. After entering from the main entrance, the three main buildings, namely the Grand Corridor, the Hall of Poetry History, and the Memorial Temple of Du Gongbu, are arranged in sequence from south to north on the central axis. In the northeast of the Memorial Temple of Du Gongbu are the Shaoling Stele Pavilion and the former thatched cottage of the great poet. To the east of the thatched cottage is the Bonsai Garden. Going south, there are the Memorial Temple of Lady Huanhua, the Flower Path, the Hall of Great Elegance, and the Thatched Cottage Exhibition Hall near the south gate. The Hall of Great Elegance was originally the Daxiong Hall of the Thatched Cottage Temple and got its name from “The Record of the Hall of Great Elegance” written by Huang Tingjian, a litterateur of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was officially opened in 2002. The three characters “Hall of Great Elegance” on the plaque of the door are collected from the calligraphy of Yan Zhenqing, a famous calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty. Inside the Hall of Great Elegance, there is a large - scale colored - glazed inlaid lacquered mural, which is the largest in China so far, and 12 sculptures of famous poets from various dynasties, vividly displaying Du Fu's life and the development history of Chinese classical poetry. The iconic landscape - the former thatched cottage The former thatched cottage was rebuilt by referring to the characteristics of the folk houses in western Sichuan and has become the iconic landscape of Du Fu Thatched Cottage. In the Bonsai Garden on the east side of the thatched cottage, there is the “Wooden Inscription Corridor of Du Fu's Poems” built in 1999, displaying more than a hundred wooden inscriptions of Du Fu's poems, among which there are four masterpieces such as “the best of Du Fu's poems, the best of calligraphy, the best of nanmu wood, and the best of carving skills”. Since Du Fu once served as a staff officer of the military governor and was a staff member of the Ministry of Works, he was called Du Gongbu, and the memorial temple got its name accordingly. The memorial temple has three bays, with mountain - shaped gables and exposed columns, on a high platform with stone steps, and has latticed windows and lattice doors, looking solemn and stately. There are stone sculptures of Du Fu from the Ming and Qing dynasties in the temple. Among them, the half - body stone sculpture of Du Fu from the 30th year of the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty (1602) is the earliest stone sculpture remaining in the thatched cottage. In front of Du Fu's thatched cottage back then, there was a path lined with flowers and trees on both sides. He once wrote in his poem: “The flower - lined path has never been swept for guests; My thatched door now opens for you for the first time.” Today's Flower Path is a small path with red walls on both sides connecting the memorial complex of Du Fu Thatched Cottage and the original Thatched Cottage Temple. At the end of the Flower Path is the “Shadow Wall of the Thatched Cottage”. The two characters “Thatched Cottage” inlaid with blue - and - white broken porcelain by Zhou Shanpei, the director of the Department of Industry Promotion in Sichuan at the end of the Qing Dynasty, are here. It has been damaged and repaired several times. There are three gates in the thatched cottage. The main entrance and the south gate are both in the south of the thatched cottage, and the north gate is in the northwest. The main entrance and the south gate are not far apart, and most tourists enter and exit through these two gates.

This layout lasted until the Ming Dynasty. In the 23rd year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1390 AD), Zhu Chun, the King Xian of Shu in the Ming Dynasty, paid a visit to Wuhou Shrine. On the grounds of "rulers and ministers should be integrated", he combined Huiling Tomb, Han Zhaolie Temple and Wuhou Shrine into one. Since Zhuge Liang had a greater influence in the minds of the common people than Liu Bei, it was customarily called "Wuhou Shrine" by the folk. The cultural relic area of Chengdu Wuhou Shrine is mainly composed of Huiling Tomb, Han Zhaolie Temple, Wuhou Shrine and Sanyi Temple. The main building is Wuhou Shrine.
