Most hotels and restaurants accept cards, but having some cash is useful for small vendors. I can recommend good spots for exchanging money if needed.
Chengdu is famous for Sichuan cuisine, known for its spicy, numbing flavours. Signature dishes include Chengdu Hot Pot, Mapo Tofu, and Kung Pao Chicken. Street food like Dan Dan Noodles and Sweet Water Noodles are also popular among locals and visitors. I can arrange food tours or recommend restaurants for you to try local specialties.
Yes, I can arrange a volunteer program at the Dujiangyan Panda Base. This needs to be booked well in advance as spots are limited.
