Winter Solstice
Warm soup, fragrant tea and city life
Walk from Chengdu's Kuanzhai Alley to People's Park and settle into Heming Teahouse for a bowl of tea. A warming winter-solstice mutton soup begins the region's food memories.
Visit Du Fu's Thatched Cottage and Wuhou Shrine, moving between poetic gardens and Three Kingdoms stories, before exploring the cliff carvings of Baodingshan in Dazu.
In Chongqing, wander Ciqikou and hillside lanes, then see Hongyadong and the two rivers by night. Hotpot, noodles and local dishes bring warmth to the winter journey.
