The former residence where Du Fu stayed in Chengdu

In summer, Du Fu’s Thatched Cottage truly embodies “poetry” in a tangible form 🌿

📸 Photo-taking Tips:

▫️ Wear plain-colored clothes! A cotton-linen long dress paired with bamboo shadows or a lotus pond creates a natural ancient-style filter

▫️ Go after 4 p.m.! The slanting sunlight filtering through the bamboo grove produces stunning light patterns

▫️ The thatched cottage, flower-lined path, and wooden gate by the lotus pond are must-photograph spots—quiet and serene

When you’re tired from wandering, sit for a while on a stone bench beneath the bamboo grove, listening to the rustling of leaves in the breeze. For a moment, it feels as if you’re sharing the same cool tranquility with the poet from a thousand years ago. It turns out poetry is never something distant—it’s hidden right here in every blade of grass, every tree, and every gentle breeze over the lotus pond～
