Until July 21st, Chengdu has endured continuous hot weather. Many citizens have gone to the city’s air raid shelter located under the People’s Park to enjoy cooler temperatures. Every year, as the dog days of summer hit, the government opens the underground shelter to the public for free. The shelter was built for military defense in the 1970s; it is also the only military facility open to the public in Chengdu. [Photo by Zhang Lang, Chinanews.com]
