After years of hearing nothing but negative stories about China from the western media we finally convinced my British family to fly with us to Chengdu… and their reaction will surprise you!

From giant pandas to spicy hotpot, high-speed trains to the warmth of the locals, this trip changed everything they thought they knew.
