Chengdu, in the Chinese mainland, just turned up the excitement for the 2025 World Games by inviting athletes on an epic culture tour! 🌟 From the iconic panda habitats to centuries-old irrigation marvels, this pre-Games adventure is all about showing off what makes this park city truly special.
Over seven unique routes, visitors can explore 17 must-see spots — including the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, Dujiangyan Irrigation System, and the lush trails of Mount Qingcheng. 🐼🏞️ More than 100 athletes have already snapped selfies with giant pandas, learned about panda conservation, and shopped for crafty souvenirs that celebrate China’s national treasure.
But it’s not just pandas on the agenda! Whether you’re wandering ancient water channels or soaking in mountain mist, every stop brings a fresh story. Imagine tasting local snacks at traditional teahouses or chilling in bamboo groves straight out of a nature documentary.
This culture tour will run until August 18, one day after the World Games wrap up, so there’s plenty of time to dive in. If you’re a sports fan, a culture geek, or simply an adventure seeker, put Chengdu on your radar — it’s the perfect blend of action and tradition. 🌏✨
