Hi Anton,
Chengdu is a nice place to be. If you didn’t decided on where to stay yet, check out Mr. Panda hostel – http://www.mrpandahostel.com.
Nice place to stay and easy to get in contact with other travelers and the staff can help you with pretty much any travel plan or general issue you might have. Even you already have an other place, come over and we can have a beer.
I’m there at an almost daily base as I do some parttime work there. But be sure to double check with me on specific times. WeChat ID: jslemmer
