A Stroll Guide to Misty Rain at Jinli

🌧️Misty rain at Jinli! One click to travel through the comfortable life museum of old Chengdu! Visiting Jinli on a rainy day is the right way to experience it! Raindrops on blue tiles, swaying lanterns, instantly transporting you back to ancient Chengdu~ This lively ancient street full of local flavor is basically a living map of Chengdu’s food, drink, and entertainment! Simply put, Jinli is a retro street and commercial district known as the "First Street of Western Shu," condensing the essence of Chengdu life. 📍Address: No. 231-1, Wuhouci Street, Wuhou District, Chengdu ⏰Opening Hours: 24 hours, always comfortable! 🔥Must-visit spots: 1️⃣ Jinli Archway: A landmark ancient archway, photos in the rain come with an ink-wash filter effect 2️⃣ Lantern Corridor: Hundreds of red lanterns light up beautifully, with even more magical light and shadow on rainy days 🍜Taste sensations: - San Da Pao: Glutinous rice balls smashed on a copper plate with three loud "bangs" - Zhang Fei Beef: Live performance of "Zhang Fei" chopping beef, spicy and fresh - Tang You Guozi: The corner old lady’s freshly fried ones are the most authentic! 📸Photo tips: 1. Choose a rainy evening when the lanterns light up for maximum atmosphere 2. The second-floor teahouse beside the ancient stage offers great overhead shots of the crowd 💡Hidden experiences: - Red walls and bamboo shadows at Wuhou Shrine (3-minute walk) - Night tours are more photogenic than daytime, the bar street has a great vibe
