Address

9 West Section 2, First Ring Road, Qingyang

The oldest and biggest Taoist temple in Chengdu. Incense smoke hangs over each courtyard, and in a tea garden off to one side the neighbourhood old-timers settle in for the afternoon. Tickets are cheap and Du Fu Cottage is a reasonable walk away, so the two pair well in a day.
