4-day Tour of Chengdu, Leshan Giant Buddha, Mount Emei – Southwestern China, China

EXPERIENCE

Day 1 Chengdu Arrival
Welcome to Chengdu, “the Land of Abundance” and “the home to Giant Panda”. Your tour guide and driver will pick you up and transfer you to the hotel. If time is allowed, your guide will show you around in this amazing city.
The attractions we recommend are as follows:
1.Broad and Narrow Alley
It is a microcosm of the past of the ancient but vibrant city. Taking a stroll here, you can not only appreciate the quaint buildings but taste delicious local food. It is a good place to experience Chengdu People’s laid-back lifestyle and feel the profound history of Chengdu.
2.People’s Park
It is an epitome of Chengdu’s laid-back atmosphere, where you can have a taste of the authentic Chinese tea and watch local people indulging themselves in playing mahjong and having casual chats. You can also have a look of the “matchmaking fair”, where you can see desperate parents search for a partner for their single children.
3.Tai Koo Li
It is a captivating blend of modern fashion and traditional culture, where you can not only visit various snack bars, boutiques, luxury stores but step into the majestic Daci Temple to pray for luck and feel the Buddhist Culture.
Day 2 Chengdu-Leshan Giant Buddha-Mount Emei
Travel by private car this morning to Leshan. After about two and a half hours, you will get to Leshan Giant Buddha, the largest and tallest stone-carved Buddha statue in the world. Over 1,300 years ago, the Giant Buddha was built to bless the passing boats. You can climb to the mountain top to have a closer look of the Giant Buddha or go on a cruise to catch a panoramic view of it. After sightseeing, enjoy the cozy night at the foot of Mount. Emei.
Day 3 Mount. Emei
This day is all for sightseeing in Mount. Emei. Take a tour bus to the mountain top. Once you reach at Leidongping, keep on walking to take a cable car and you will meet many naughty monkeys along the way. Then take a cable car up to the Golden Summit, where you can see a towering muti-faced golden statue of Samanta-Bhadra Bodhisattva. Explore the beautiful scenery on the mountain top and enjoy the Buddhist Culture in the Huangzang Temple nearby. Afterwards, descend to the Monastery of Ten Thousand Years, where you can pray for good luck. Afterwards, take a relaxing walking downhill and enjoy the natural beauty of the sub-tropical forest along the way.
Day 4 Mount. Emei-Chengdu-Departure
In the morning, you will be driven two and a half hours to Chengdu Panda Breeding and Research Center where you can have a close encounter with adorable pandas. Hopefully, you can catch the best time and witness them doing different things. It is a time-smart visit to understand pandas’ physical features and living habits.
Afterwards, we will escort you back to your hotel or send you off. If you want to extend your stay in Chengdu, we are willing to make customized tour plans for you.
