Planning
What should I do in Chengdu on a rainy morning?
A rainy Chengdu morning should change the first half of the day, not just the outfit.
What usually works best:
- one indoor or semi-indoor anchor
- a slower breakfast or early lunch
- a decision point around noon instead of locking the whole day too early
Good rainy-morning ideas:
- Wenshu area
- a calmer temple or museum block
- a teahouse start
- an indoor-friendly neighborhood with easier food options
What I would avoid first:
- long uncovered old-street walks
- forcing a photo-heavy morning
- preserving the original plan just because it looked good yesterday
If the weather improves after lunch, you can still add an outdoor stop later. The key is protecting the first decision of the day so the rest of the trip stays flexible.
