I am in Chengdu, China, and what a great surprise! In this video I will bring around the city of Chengdu, also known at the City of Panda, the capital of Sichuan province. We will explore the main attractions of Chengdu, such as Tianfu square, People's Park, Chengdu teahouses, Wu Hou Shrine, Jinli ancient street, Kuanzhai Xiangzi alley and so much more. I will also share with you how I am changing my mind about China and how I was brainwashed by the western media to have a specific view and thoughts about China. That's why I love traveling. You have a direct experience of the world, and you see things as they really are. And not as they tell you they are.
