I managed to retrieve some of the pictures for our visit to Dujiangyan and Mount QingCheng last October. At Dujiangyan you can see the ancient irrigation system which is preserve to the present - an ingenious system developed in the early Chinese civilisation. Mt QingCheng is the birthplace of Taoism, you can find the first Taoist temple at the peak. There is a small lake at the halfway point, you can cross to the other end via ferry to continue your climb up to the top of the mountain. The climb to the top is still manageable by taking frequent breaks in-between though some paths are steep.

Lee, who guided me and my friend, was very kind and delicate. The tremendous rush of the Chinese National Day caused us a lot of trouble and had a hard time. But if it weren't for his private guided tour of his first day in Chengdu, he probably had a harder time. Once again, I would like to thank Lee for the detailed information on Dujiangyan and Qingshan, as well as various essential tips for traveling to China. Mr. Lee, who guided me and my friend, was very kind and delicate. We had many problems and hard time together during trip because of 'Super Crowded' Chinese National Day. But, without his private guide tour which was responsible for our first day in Chengdu, maybe we could have even more hard time. Once again, I want to appreciate letting us know many necessary tips for trip to China, as well as detailed information about Dujiangyan and Qingchengshan.

Louis was very knowledgeable, spoke good English, and was very entertaining. he must be hoarse now, coz he hardly stopped talking! He was much fitter than us going up the mountain, which was a bit embarrassing.

Our guide Ms Daisy is good and friendly. But i do not recommend visit the places during weekend as both places are super crowded.

Great way to start your visit to Chengdu as Dujiangyan is the primary reason for Chengdu's existence - it provided the city much needed drinking water for centuries. We had an excellent guide Mr Li who took great care of us throughout the trip and recommended an cheap and good eating place for lunch.

Traveling by the public transportation. A bit tired after the itinerary, but our guide Li made it wonderful and enjoyable. Li even took us to the local store and bargained for us using the local language so we could buy some local souvenir at a good price.

Good to know

Insider tips:

  • Most food and snacks in Chengdu are very spicy so eat with caution
  • Mount Qingcheng and Dujiangyan Scenic Areas are quite expansive. You can opt to hire a sightseeing vehicle at your own expense
