Located in the very center of Chengdu, it is the symbol of Chengdu. There are many delicious and fun things to do in the sunken square. The Sichuan Science and Technology Museum opposite and the Chengdu Museum next to it are both worth visiting.

By Scholar's spirit |

Tianfu Square is located in the center of Chengdu. It is the largest city center square in western China, covering an area of ​​88,000 square meters. It is not only the economic, cultural and commercial center of Chengdu, but also the transportation hub of Chengdu and one of the landmarks of Chengdu.

By snails |

There are a lot of food options underground, including Chengdu specialties as well as different types from other places, but most of them seem to be small shops.

The square is quite spacious, and there are science and technology museums, libraries, Chengdu Museum, and the Grand Theater around it, all of which are very beautiful.

By Great Magician SS |

Located in the core area of ​​Chengdu, there are museums, science and technology museums, art galleries, libraries, and even underground commercial streets.

Tianfu Square is very big, there are many delicious foods in the underground, there are food, drink and entertainment... For the hot summer, it is very suitable to go to Tianfu Square

By tsavo |

Tianfu Square is located in the city center. The surrounding area is very prosperous, with many shopping malls and attractions. It is also a transportation hub.

By The colonel |

There is nothing above the square, but there is a shopping mall and subway station below.

By Stupid |

There are beautiful women everywhere, a lot of shopping malls, but not enough snacks.

By Far network short flat fast |

Tianfu Square is not far from Chunxi Road, but it is a pity that taking photos is not allowed

By Martian User |

I had a hotpot with my ENFP friend... I forgot what we talked about... I just talked about the scene of her and her little sister strolling in the square... It was the first time I knew what the sesame oil was used for... I feel that there are a lot of beautiful women in Chengdu, and the skin is better in places without the sun.

By Three Realms Gossip |

After a tiring day, it is a pleasure to go to Tianfu Square to see the night view and find a stone bench to sit on.

By 塵 |

Shopping and modern architecture, science and technology museums, museums, etc.

By Want to travel around the world |

There are many public facilities in Tianfu Square. If you have time, you can visit them one by one. No tickets are required.

By Little C's Husky |

If you come to Tianfu Square, you must go to Gaiwan Liyuan to listen to a performance.

By Flowers are flying everywhere in Jiangcheng |

The landmark of Chengdu, looking down like a Tai Chi pattern, with Kuanzhai Alley on the left and Chunxi Road on the right

By Meiyangyang's Mood Diary |

This time I came to Chengdu with my mother and aunt. We took photos wherever we went. Tianfu Square is really nice!

By Xu Yutian |

There are no buildings on the square, but there is a whole floor of department stores below the square. Shopping is very convenient.

By The charm of not gaining weight |

The design of the square is said to be based on the elements of yin and yang, tai chi, dragon and phoenix, etc., which is very Chinese. Surrounded by tall buildings and flourishing flowers, it forms a unique urban landscape.

By doudousha |

I don't really recommend going there on purpose, it's just a square and there's really nothing to see.

By Arisaema curcumae |

This is a very large area, with a square in the middle and some distinctive buildings around it, such as the Chengdu Museum, Sichuan Science and Technology Museum, Sichuan Provincial Library, etc.

The East Square is a sunken square, and the West Square is a fountain landscape with a Sun Bird pattern in the middle.

Under such a blue sky, people in the city are rushing around. Looking at the policemen patrolling the square, I feel dazed for a moment. Is such a peaceful city a prosperous world?

By zhm_jinan |

As a landmark of Chengdu, it is not particularly outstanding, but you can visit the surrounding museums and art galleries if you have time.

By Yangyangyang is very lazy |

A city square, large and empty, passing by by car

By Warm baby |

It is a big square, but Qingdao people have never seen the world. It is really big! Qingdao is a seaside city, and there are almost no wide roads in the urban area. Chengdu is bright and spacious. My grandma has always been in a very good mood because of this road. The square culture is also very well done. The origin of Chengdu is written on the pillars. The author only remembers that Chengdu seems to have not changed its name for more than 2,000 years. In short, it means a lot of historical accumulation. There are police officers on duty in the square. Citizens come to take a walk in the evening to enjoy the cool air, which is even more lively. Although it is just a square, the author thinks that it is well used and worth a visit.

Tianfu Square is the center of Chengdu. There are many business districts, art galleries, science and technology museums, and museums around it. You can have a good time there for 2 days. The night view is also very beautiful.

By 🌀Safe |

There are also many snacks in Tianfu Square subway station, but I was disappointed when I went to see them. There were not many people and the ratings were very low. I didn't eat much and came back.

Next to Tianfu Square is the art gallery, the library, and another museum, but I forgot which one it was. Anyway, they are all together and you can visit them together.

By Flowers Outdoor |

A landmark square. I glanced at the sculpture when I passed by. It was very distinctive. This is the city center of Chengdu. The transportation is very convenient. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the transportation hub of Chengdu. Tianfu Square is the largest city center square in western China. There are Chunxi Road and Wangfujing on the east side, Wenshu Temple on the north side, People's Park, Kuanzhai Alley, Jinli, etc. on the west side. However, if you take this square as your destination, it is not worth visiting and you will be disappointed.

By Because I met you |

This should be the representative place of Chengdu. If you go to Chengdu and don't go to Tianfu Square, it's like a wasted trip. It is located in the city center. There is nothing to do there. Just take a photo to linger, O(∩_∩)O haha~

By  My family's △ small meat dumplings |

It's really just a square. But the surrounding buildings are still worth seeing.

Under Tianfu Square, there is a commercial street with an underground passage, which can also lead directly to Tianfu Square Metro Station

By Backpacking trip in Qiuqiu |

It's very impressive. When you get out of the subway station, you can see Tianfu Square. Next to it is the Sichuan Science and Technology Museum and Jincheng Art Palace.

By Little Rabbit |

Tianfu Square is one of the landmarks of Chengdu and is very prosperous.

By Hundred Flowers |

The transportation is very convenient, and there are many restaurants around that are frequented by locals. The food is delicious. There are shopping malls and chain snack shops under the square, so you can go shopping in your spare time.

By Li Xiaobu |

I just wandered around and found a big square. Every capital city should have one.

By Sam G |

It's okay to take a look, I didn't expect Chengdu to develop so fast, but there's nothing to do.

By Baileys |

As a representative landmark of Chengdu, Tianfu Square is worth a visit. It can be reached by Metro Line 1 and Line 2. You can go up from any exit of Tianfu Square Station. The famous Bagua Square (there is really Tai Chi Bagua!) If you go too late, the security guards may set up roadblocks and not let you in (we went there at nearly 10 pm once, and the security guards drove people out). The fountain in the center of the square sprays at 11 am, 4 pm, and after 7:30 pm every day.

By Pandaren Brewer |

No video or filming is allowed in Tianfu Square, but taking photos is allowed. Don't ask me how I know. Across the street from the square are the Sichuan Art Museum, Sichuan Library, Sichuan Science and Technology Museum, and the Sichuan Grand Theater, which is under construction. It's so neat.

By Yewuwu |

Behind Tianfu Square is the Sichuan Science and Technology Museum, and nearby is the Chengdu Museum. The square is very large, and there is a shopping district between the ground and the subway station, which is very convenient for shopping.

By Mr. Zhang Red Wine |

The location is great, in the heart of Chengdu. I believe that few people who come to Chengdu have not been here!

By Mandala |

It is suitable for night tours. The lights illuminate the entire square at night. Next to it is the Sichuan Science and Technology Museum.

By Frigid Bread |

It feels like there are always a lot of people here. There are some snacks and delicacies below, but I didn't have a deep impression of them. However, there are some small shops that are still worth visiting. I think the most interesting thing is to go to the "Mystery of Life" exhibition on the underground first floor of Tianfu Square. I learned a lot and experienced a lot. There are also national quintessence drama performances, which I haven't been to yet.

By Penguin couple |

The square is very large, there are shops in the sunken square, and it is convenient to go anywhere by subway underground

By Lexi。 |

Tianfu Square in the center of Chengdu is surrounded by museums and science and technology museums. It is both a square and a subway station shopping center. The night view of the square is unique.

By Chen Xiaomao |

Haha, the 2015 photo is right next to the Science and Technology Museum~

By Mysterious Ark |

The square in the center of Chengdu. It feels very nice to take a walk and relax in the square, although I just took a few photos here this time.

By l Kezi |

2018.1.21 The whole family visited Tianfu Square, where there are Chengdu Museum, Sichuan Art Museum, Library, Science and Technology Museum, which is very suitable for family travel; transportation is relatively convenient

By C |

There are delicious food below Tianfu Square, but there is nothing above except two iconic buildings. We walked from Tianfu Square to Chunxi Road, which is a bit far.

By Treasure cover |

Tianfu Square is not only the economic, cultural and commercial center of Chengdu, but also the transportation hub of Chengdu. It has always been a symbol of Chengdu and even Sichuan, and is also a city card of Chengdu.

By Live with you @98° |

The square has a nice night view

There are many restaurants and food down there.

By Traveling around the world in front of a computer |

It's a little solemn square. I don't know how many people on duty patrol it, which makes people feel less comfortable.

By Winter velvet flowers |

I don't know how this is considered a tourist attraction. It's just a commercial plaza.

By zhj0003 |

I came here directly after visiting Chunxi Road. It's very close and there's nothing to see. This is the center of Chengdu.

By Star |

Chengdu City Square, Chengdu Museum, Sichuan Science and Technology Museum, Sichuan Library, etc. are distributed around the square, and the public services are very good. However, the square looks very ordinary, with fountains and sculptures reflecting the characteristics of Chengdu. The underground commercial street is also average.

By Jumping |

Located in the center of Chengdu, it has a superior geographical location, and there are many exhibition halls and shops around.

By Arthas💀 |

There are shopping malls everywhere, so it's convenient to stay in a hotel here.

By Qianxi chestnut |

A landmark of Chengdu. There is a Chengdu Museum nearby but I didn’t go. For me, just taking a photo was enough.

Fangsuo Bookstore is a benchmark in the domestic bookstore industry. If you have time in Chengdu, you should go and visit it.

By Zhu Ayang, |

Tianfu Square is the transfer station of Metro Line 1 and Line 2. Opposite it are the Art Museum, Science and Technology Museum and Museum. You need to exchange your ID card for free entry. I highly recommend going to the Art Museum to cultivate your sentiments. Although laymen don't understand it very well, I like it very much. The Science and Technology Museum is suitable for children. I personally think that adults will find it boring. In addition, the theme of each exhibition in the Art Museum is different. I plan to visit the museum some time later.

By style |

Tianfu Square is not only the economic, cultural and commercial center of Chengdu, but also the subway transportation hub of Chengdu. It has always been a symbol of Chengdu and even Sichuan, and is also a city card of Chengdu.

By sacred |

Before coming here, I saw from the map that Tianfu Square is the center of Chengdu Metro. I suspect it is the center of the city. I also looked for a place to live around Tianfu Square. After all, the transportation is convenient and it is convenient to go anywhere. We went there at night and there was smog. It felt like a place for citizens to go for a walk. It was a weekend and it was very lively. There were also many police officers, so it felt relatively safe.

By well |

It is small, smaller than a park, and the scenery is not good. It is next to the Science and Technology Museum, the Museum, and the Library.

By Raccoon has no seasoning packet |

It's not bad, it's a landmark building in Chengdu. But the little episode in the middle made me unhappy.

By RIOrange Lu Feng |

The city center, not very special. Maybe it's nice during the day, but there's really nothing to see at night.

By Atong Miao |

The center of Chengdu has very convenient transportation and there are many places worth visiting around, such as the Chengdu Museum. There are many shops and restaurants underground, and they are well connected. According to the instructions, you can directly reach many places without crossing the road on the ground.

By Emily🌻 |

I live near Tianfu Square, which is very convenient! Chengdu's tourism construction is really great! #深度告白四川旅游局#

By hannahhua |

We first took the subway to Tianfu Square and then walked over. In fact, there is also a subway station at People's Park, just one stop away. We planned to visit Tianfu Square. There is a sunken square here, but we didn't spend much time there. There are also Sichuan Science and Technology Museum and Chengdu Museum New Building nearby, which are all free.

First we came to Tianfu Square. For L and D, except for the sculpture, everything else has changed. The clock tower of the Telecom Building is gone. The sound of the bell once left us with deep memories. Every night when it was quiet, we could hear the crisp hourly time announcements in the campus on Jianshe Road. But it is gone, so be it. The rolling wheel of history will not stop turning because of people's memories. From Tianfu Square along Xiyu Street to the intersection of Dongchenggen Street, the brightly lit shops on the opposite side of the street are all "Laoma Tihua" shops, all claiming to be the old shops of the original Banbian Bridge. Over the years, I have eaten in every shop, and I can honestly say that the taste is really good!

By Ashes_Kay |

[Stop 4 - Tianfu Square] Walked from People's Park to Tianfu Square, and had a bowl of pig intestines rice noodle for lunch. Because it was Monday, the museums and art galleries were closed, but for some reason Tianfu Square was also off-limits, and there were many police around. I thought it might be a meeting or something, and after searching online, I guessed that it was to prevent citizens from wearing masks while walking in the square.

By tiezhu123 |

Chengdu city center has convenient transportation, catering, shopping and entertainment.

Chengdu's road network is spider-web-like, with Tianfu Square located at the center of the spider.
