Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, served as our first stop on our return trip to China in June 2008.

Chengdu quickly became our favorite big city in China - friendly people, relaxing teahouses, fiery cuisine, and pandas. As in all of China, the city is developing quickly. Our favorite area - a tiny traditional neighborhood of old Chengdu behind the Shangri-La hotel - was quickly being demolished in favor of new buildings. For all we know, it may be gone already.

Read more about our visit to Chengdu and to the Chengdu Panda Breeding Research Center.
