What happens when mayors from all over the world land in Chengdu? They basically do what we all would: fall head-over-heels for the pandas! 🐼
As part of the 2026 Global Mayors Dialogue, foreign delegates spent May 15 diving into the best vibes the city has to offer. First stop? The iconic Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. Let's be real—no trip to the capital of Sichuan Province is complete without meeting these fluffy "diplomats" who are basically the CEOs of cuteness. ✨
But it wasn't all about the cuddles! The mayors also took a trip back in time to visit the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. 🌊 This place is a total marvel—it is the only ancient irrigation system in the world that is still in operation today. Talk about legendary sustainable engineering goals! 🏗️
From adorable animals to mind-blowing history, Chengdu is showing the world how to blend tradition with modern charm. Definitely a mood! 🌍💬
