As the hometown of Giant Panda, Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding should not be missed when you come to Chengdu! In the morning your private tour guide and driver will be greeting at the hotel, and then you are going to see the lovely creatures. Located in northern suburb of Chengdu, this Panda Base takes us about 40-50 minutes to get there from downtown area. In this park-like base, you are sure to see many pandas at one time that we cannot realize in other places all over the world.

Wave goodbye to the lovely pandas, transfer to Jinsha Ruins, which is a rare museum among Chinese museums because of its combination of modern civilization and the civilization of ancient Shu State, as well as the combination of ecological environment and culture. Jinsha Site Museum is built to protect and display the archaeological finds of Jinsha Site, which probably dates back to about 3,000 years ago. ​

Later move steps to People’s Park, the first park set in Chengdu City. It has 100 years of history and now become one of the most popular parks of Chengdu. In the morning you will be picked up by your private guide and driver, then transfer to People’s Park at first. There are many old people doing exercises group by group. Some of them are practicing sword, some are playing Tai Chi. Chengdu’s leisure life and slow pace is well known in China that just a walking in the park you can easily find out. The traditional teahouse inside People's Park is with over 100 years history. If you like, you can choose to drink some tea in the traditional tea house inside People’s Park.

Transfer back to hotel in the late afternoon.

In the morning, visit Wangjiang Pavilion. Standing by the Jinjiang River, it has long been the symbol of Chengdu City. Get up on the pavilion to enjoy a nice view of Jinjiang River, Chengdu’s mother river. Then shift your sight to Tang Dynasty, to visit Dufu Thatched Cottage that is well-known as the former residence of Du fu, the great poet which could be compared as Shakespear. The cottage is constituted of six important parts, namely the Front Gate, the Lobby, the Hall of Poem History, the Water Pavilion, the Gongbu (the Ministry of Works in feudal China) Shrine and the Thatched Cottage.

​

Have lunch in a local restaurant. After lunch, transfer to Temple of Marquis, or Wuhou Shrine, which was built up to commemorate two famous people in history. One is Emperor Liu Bei, the other is the Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, and both of them were of Shu kingdom in the period of Three Kingdoms Dynasty. It is the only temple in China where the Emperor and his Minister were sacrificed together.
