Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, is a splendid city that integrates rapid industrialization with over 2,500 years of history. Formerly an undeveloped town before China's reform and opening, this ancient city is rapidly becoming one of China's biggest and best cosmopolitan cities. Chengdu generally enjoys a mild climate and environment uncommon in other cosmopolitan cities in China. Lush trees and lush vegetation line the streets in Chengdu and the city enjoys many months of comfortable temperature.
Chengdu locals are also renowned as more relaxed than their other Chinese city counterparts. At night, guests can see residents flooded in the streets drinking tea, playing mahjong, and violently slamming down cards in a three-player game known as "Dou Di Zhu". In addition, Chengdu's spicy cuisine---from hotpot restaurants and a snack known as "Shao Kao" will leave visitors sweating and breathing fire. Ask anyone in China about Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, and they will immediately rave about 'Chuan Cai', or Sichuan cuisine.
