Wangjiang Tower Park 望江楼公园
A riverside bamboo park centred on a historic tower associated with Tang poet Xue Tao. It is peaceful, green and less crowded than central sights.
The free garden area is pleasant, but pay the small fee to climb the tower and see the bamboo collection.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to book Wangjiang Tower Park in advance?
Advance booking is possible but not mandatory: reserve/buy online through the WeChat mini-program '成都市望江楼公园' using your ID card, or buy on site with ID at the north gate ticket window or the window inside '枕流雅筑' (文创售卖点). One visitor post says to reserve the free ticket one day ahead via the park's WeChat account and that scanning your ID at the gate also works. Nothing on the pages states whether foreign passports can be used for online booking.
What are the opening hours of Wangjiang Tower Park?
Garden free area 06:00–21:00
How much is a ticket to Wangjiang Tower Park?
About ¥20. Two zones: the free garden area (园林区, south/west gates) costs nothing; the cultural relics area (文物区, north gate) costs 20 CNY per adult. Full-time students half price 10 CNY; free for ages 60+, children under 1.3 m and military with valid ID. The 20 CNY ticket is for the relics area only (Chongli Tower, Xue Tao Well, memorial hall). Separate evening immersive night-tour performances and Jinjiang river cruises are ticketed separately (e.g. early-bird 16.6 CNY, regular 66 CNY adult / 46 CNY student for the night show).
