Doing an internship in China is the best way to explore Chinese culture but it doesn’t mean you have to give up your western lifestyle once in a while. Chengdu is a city not only traditional but also international and brings a lot of convenience to international interns.

Jellyfish- the most famous club you should pay a visit while interning in Chengdu.

This is perhaps the most famous club in Chengdu. It’s the premier place for foreign men and Chinese women to meet and dance. This is most certainly a club, not only a bar with loud dance and music. It will usually be busy most nights throughout the week with the weekend being the busiest.

Shamrock- one of the best option for you to eat and drink “quietly”.

Shamrock is an Irish pub with a sports bar feeling. It’s located very close to American consulate Chengdu. It has pool tables, a Western menu and occasional live band. During the weekdays it normally attracts a regular, expat crowd, but on the weekends, can attract a pleasant mix of newcomers and established regulars.

Although it has a reputation for being a bar for the more “settled-down” crowd, it’s still a nice place to go to meet new people and have interesting conversations during your internship in Chengdu.

Machu Picchu-a small and quiet place to Chat with friends meet from the internship.

The owner of Machu Picchu is a friendly Dutchman. It’s a small, but well appreciated bar in Chengdu. While still relatively unknown, it is a cozy little place to relax and chat with friends you meet in your company for the internship. They sometimes have performances as well as the videogame night, where people can come and play a videogame on their big screen.
