Travel Itinerary

  • Day 1:
    Beijing - Chengdu

    Flight to Chengdu in the morning.

    Upon arrival in Chengdu, our local partner will meet you at airport.

    Transfer to hotel.

    In the afternoon visit the Giant Panda Breeding Research Base, where you will encounter one of the most endangered animals in the world, the giant panda, along with its equally endearing cousin, the lesser red panda.

    An autumn visit could include seeing tiny newborn pandas in their "nursery".

    Overnight in Chengdu

  • Day 2:
    Chengdu - Leshan - Mt. Emei (B)

    In the morning drive to Leshan, a friendly city, where you will visit the 71 meter high Grand Buddha at the Lingyun Temple. This immense carving was begun in 713 AD by a Buddhist monk engineer/fund-raiser in hopes of stopping the deaths of boatmen who were often lost in a swirling hollow where the Dadu and Min rivers meet. This purpose was actually accomplished as the rock debris resulting from the work filled in the dangerous hollow.

    Then a cruise on Min River will provide you with further views of the Grand Buddha.

    Transfer to Mt. Emei in the evening.

    Overnight on Mt. Emei

  • Day 3:
    Mt. Emei – Chengdu(B)

    Early in the morning take the cable car up to the Golden Summit. With an elevation of 3099 meters, if it is a fine day, you will be in for a treat of luxuriant green vistas stretching out below your feet; the Min, Qingyi and Dadu Rivers are like three pieces of silk stringing their way through the mountains and Daxue and Gongga mountain ranges appear the hold up the sky that glows with an almost holy light. After visiting Huazang Si (Copper temple), take cable car back down and transfer to another cable car up to visit Wannian Si, that is located at the waist of the mountain. The temple was initially built in 420 and was given the present name of Wannian Si (Ten-Thousand-Years Temple) by Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty (1537-1619) who wished to celebrate his mother's birthday and changed the name of the temple in hope of her longevity. The importance of the temple lies in not only its long history and glorious past, but also being the main ritual place of the Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. Inside the Mongolian tent-shaped beamless brick hall is a 7.3-meter statue of Samantabhadra sitting on an elephant, which was cast in Chengdu in 980 of the Song Dynasty and weighs 62,000 kg. Afterwards trek downhill via the Qingyin Pavillion, Yixiantian and monkey area. Finish at the Wuxiangang car park where you will board an eco-tourism car to the foot of the mountain for transfer back to Chengdu.

    Overnight in Chengdu

  • Day 4:
    Chengdu - Beijing(B)

    Time at leisure to explore the city on your own. (Why not try the local teahouses for a truly cultural experience?)

    Transfer to Chengdu airport in the afternoon.

    Flight back to Beijing / Shanghai.
