Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • In China, Chengdu and Nanjing.
  • Chengdu is great and if you haven't been to China in 15 years, travel is a lot more accessible (insane high speed rail network) and the cities have developed immensely.
  • Chengdu is also home to the Sanxingdui exhibits which have gone viral recently for looking like aliens.
  • Which are very interesting but I'd probably take the Chengdu giant pandas over them.
  • In Chengdu, $120 got me a high-rise luxury suite with a robot delivering my late-night noodles to the door.

Cons

  • Chengdu has good night life but the clubs don't feel super authentic.
  • There's very little to see in Chengdu if you will not venture out to Jiuzhaigou. It's just a city with a panda sanctuary, nothing more.
