　　Families will love the hands-on nature of this huge museum – almost every display is of a touchy-feely nature. Labels and descriptions are light on English, but most displays are self-explanatory enough once you start to play with them. You'll need your passports for tickets from the 'Information Centre' to the right of the entrance.

Sichuan Museum
Chengdu
　　Aficionados of Chinese history will enjoy a stop here for a look at Sichuan's past through Shu-era calligraphy and painting, bronze works and ceramics, and a nice gallery of Buddha statues unearthed during archaeological works at the Ming dynasty Wanfo Temple (万佛寺).

Qingyang Temple
Chengdu
　　Alongside Culture Park, this is Chengdu’s oldest and most extensive Taoist temple. Qingyang (Green Ram) Temple dates from the Zhou dynasty, although most of what you see is Qing.

Wuhou Temple
Chengdu
　　Located adjacent to Nanjiao Park and surrounded by mossy cypresses, this temple (rebuilt in 1672) honours several figures from the Three Kingdoms period, namely legendary military strategist Zhuge Liang and Emperor Liu Bei (his tomb is here). Both were immortalised in the Chinese literature classic, Romance of the Three Kingdoms...
Wenshu Monastery
Chengdu
　　This Tang dynasty monastery is dedicated to Wenshu (Manjushri), the Bodhisattva of Wisdom, and is Chengdu’s largest and best-preserved Buddhist temple. The air is heavy with incense and the low murmur of chanting; despite frequent crowds of worshippers, there’s still a sense of serenity and solitude. At weekends free Chinese-...
