Welcome to China’s famous Panda Capital, Chengdu! After arriving at Chengdu’s airport or train station, you will receive a warm greeting from your guide and driver, who will escort you to our well-selected hotel. Check in, rest well, and then enjoy the opportunity to explore the city during your free time.

As your hotel is located in the most prosperous city center, it is easy for you to reach the high-end open-plan shopping center, Taikooli, within walking distance. The bustling low-rise shopping area is also known as the ‘Times Square’ of Chengdu, filled with luxury brands and exquisite restaurants. In addition to enjoying the city’s modern outlook, you can also find a 1,600-year-old ancient Buddhist shrine hidden in the heart of the area.

Dinner Recommendation: (at your own expense)

If you are not fond of fancy restaurants in shopping malls and want to discover some local favorites, Kuixinglou Food Street is a must-visit. The busy, old-style street extends for only hundreds of meters and is lined with affordable eateries and crowded food stalls. However, it offers the most authentic local culinary delights, from traditional Sichuan dishes and spicy hot pot to numerous street food essentials like ice jelly, Baked Egg Pancakes, and glutinous rice balls.

Day2  Chengdu City Tour

The entire morning is dedicated to a visit to the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, the first stop on your Chengdu tour. More than 200 pandas are well cared for at the panda base, which also boasts the largest panda population in the world, allowing you to see pandas of various ages easily. If you visit from June to September, you’ll likely have a great chance of seeing adorable baby pandas! Generally, giant pandas are most active in the morning, so we set off early today, around 08:00. The panda base was constructed to mimic the natural habitats of these cute animals, featuring research and training centers. As a creature already adorable in appearance, pandas can easily melt your heart while chewing bamboo and rolling on the ground!
