Overview

This tour give you 2 options to visit Leshan Giant Buddha and Chengdu panda base or an authentic tea house at Pengzhen.
We run tours in Chengdu panda base for nearly 20 years and witness it developed from a small area with only 6 rescued giant pandas to a huge territory with over 200 captive pandas. We know the pandas and the panda base as our hands and to develop a unique visiting route to show travelers the more active pandas with less crowds.
Sichuan is renowned for its tea culture, which was once celebrated in many tea houses scattered throughout the city and countryside.
As a photographer, I found this authentic tea house coincidentally in 2012. Then, I decided to introduce every traveler about this place as it might be the Real China life in our memory.
After the panda base or tea house, we will drive you to Leshan where is not only famous for the Buddha but also the food. Our guide will also give you a food tour as lunch!
Join in us to experience the Real China life.
