A second to travel through a thousand-year-old ancient courtyard

Live view of Du Fu Thatched Cottage in the rain🌧️—the ultimate romance for the Chinese people! The top attraction of the Poet Sage’s former residence! Bamboo forest and thatched cottage instantly transport you back a thousand years✨ 📍Address: No. 37 Qinghua Road, Qingyang District, Chengdu ⏰Opening hours: Peak season 8:30-18:30 / Off-season 9:00-18:00 (ticket sales stop 1 hour before closing) 💦Wet and poetic walking route: 1️⃣ Main gate → Great Hall Healed immediately by the sound of rain hitting banana leaves upon entry! Remember to take ink-painting style silhouette photos in front of the "Thatched Cottage" screen wall 2️⃣ Poetry History Hall → Firewood Gate Shoot the bamboo forest through the diamond-shaped lattice window—stunning! The rain dripping from the thatched eaves looks just like a scene from Tang poetry 3️⃣ Ministry of Works Shrine → Shaoling Stele Pavilion Catch the light around 4:00 PM! The inscriptions in the rain and mist will glow faintly with mossy green 4️⃣ Thatched Cottage Scenic Area A must-shoot centerpiece! Recreates the home scene of "August’s high autumn wind roaring," and the thatched roof feels even more immersive in the rain 📸Rainy day exclusive photo spots: ▶️ Vermilion corridor pillars by the water threshold (composition with foreground bamboo leaves is stunning) ▶️ Stone lantern at the corner of the stele forest (the hazy rain atmosphere is maximized) 🌿Tips to avoid pitfalls: • Bring a transparent umbrella in advance! The same style sold in the scenic area is three times more expensive • Wear non-slip shoes! The bluestone paths are super slippery when wet • After 4 PM, there are the fewest visitors, so you can have the entire thatched cottage area to yourself
