This restaurant provides delicious Chinese chaffy dish, which is the most delicious one I have ever tried. The food is so delicious that I have to wait till 9 o'clock. But I think it deserve it. Chaffy dish, especially the mutton.
The dressing is specially made, with it, the food taste great!:-)
Qintai Road was named in memory of Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru. They are legendary lovers and incarnations of love in Western Han dynasty.
The old Qintai Road used to be the street that sells jewelries. The building has been preserved and tured into a tourist attraction. Food stall and restaurants are operating to draw in the tourist.
The building in Qintai Road does not seems very ancient and the block did not share the same deco and feature. It is a cluster of antique complex of Han and Tang dynasties.
In Qintai Road there is a 920m long brick belt stretching through the street which is made up of 160,000 bricks.
We were told by the local guides that the 3 monks are fakes and were there just to beg for money.
This has to be one of my favourite pictures from my RTW trip `86-`87.
I visited Chengdu 4 times enroute to Lhasa in Tibet. I was living in
Hong-Kong so flew in either directly or via Canton. Usually stayed
overnight before catching the early morning flight to Lhasa. I stayed 3
times in the Jin Jiang Hotel on the top floor which was run by some
Hong Kong business at the time. Most people didn't speak any English
and the only foreigners I saw were the usual elderly American tourists
herded around by a guide. I met an American who was working for
Sikorsky Helicopters and servicing helicopters out at the airport and he
had some secret contact with some Chinese girl, but apart from, that it
was off bounds for contact privately with foreigners. I remember seeing a
disco for Chinese only in the hotel, it reminded me of something like a
band on some beach resort in Mexico in the 50's playing to tourists!
Wierd but wonderful.
Sadly in 1989 when Tianeneim Sq Massacre took place, there were
student riots here too, and when things turned bad many students and
people fled to the Jin Jaing in hope of safety as there were foreigners
staying here! Many people were killed at the steps of the JJ!
