About Chengdu
Chengdu (成都 Chéngdū) is the provincial capital and largest city of Sichuan Province in southwest China. The megacity is home to over 21 million people. Its main draw for most foreign tourists is perhaps the giant pandas, with the world's foremost giant panda research institute just outside the city. Among the Chinese, it is also known for being home to China's largest and most vibrant LGBT scene.
