Well, I don't think I am going to write a lengthy blog to add more grace to Chengdu, which has already been recognised as a champion among the most inhabitable cities in China as revealed by a survey in which Chengduers have voted to claim themselves the happiest people across the nation. But let me do post some pictures to share our happiness during the three heavenly days in this "paradize on earth". 
The famous "Wide alley, narrow allay" (宽巷子窄巷子)looks like old-fashioned Beijing Hutong.

This must be some ancient rich man's residential house.

This is a real alley where modern people live. The branches of orange trees, mulberry trees and persimmon trees are reaching out of the wall.

Does the atmosphere of Embroidery Village (my loose translation of "锦里")ring some bell to you? Yes, it suddenly reminded me of Lijiang (丽江).

Wanna see what a teahouse looks like? Follow me please.

Here I come.

When I looked out of the window, wow, all are travellers!

In Spring Buslting Road (my loose translation of "春熙路"), I reunited with my little sister, who arrived two days earlier from Xi'an.

We went to Chengdu Panda Breeding Center. These pandas are reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally fat, lazy, stupid but irresistably lovely.

Shouldn't I feel honored to take a picture with our national treasure?

After a happy dinner--hot pot, we became spicy girls!

This is the owner of a bar. Guess what his primary profession is? He's a university professor! He does not conceal a single bit of his content with life, a first-hand testifier of Chengdu being a paradise.

Isn't my sweetie very cute?

How can I not pay homage to our greatest Tang Dynasty poet, Du Fu, in his thatched cottage?

I was so enchanted by the scent of sweet osmanthus and really want to pass on the scent to you through this picture.

We have learned many of Mr. Du's poems by heart. Now it's a good time for revision.

Really hard to believe this lively city is capital of the province recently distressed by a catastrophic earthquake.
