Here we go, a trip to Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province made our vacation last month. More than just panda breeding center, a favorite tourist center of Chengdu, the city also has an interesting taste of food, Sichuan food flavors including salty, sweet, hot, spicy, sour and bitter. Sichuan cuisine has known for its bold flavors and spiciness. Apart from met local Sichuan cutest animal residents, my escape holiday from busy city also brought us to the Leshan Giant Buddha and Mount Emei that located not far from Chengdu.

Chinese Panda Play Each Other

Together with my family, we booked 5 days Chengdu tour that also including for tour transport and accommodation. So all were arranged and we did not need worry about anything. Like everyone said a trip to Chengdu would not complete without a tour to see adorable Chinese pandas in their nature living habitat.

Leshan Giant Buddha from Boat

After did visit Chengdu Panda Breeding Center the whole day, next trip to Leshan Giant Buddha makes our tour complete. A couple of hours from Chengdu by private car, we arrived at Leshan Giant Buddha. That giant Buddha said as largest carved stone Buddha in the world! It even has been listed as one of World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1996. We climbed up the whole statue to get closer look as well as visit some of temples along our way. We could take photos while climbing it, and at last could admire that grandeur structure of the statue.

In additional, we also could take a cruise on Min and Qingyi River, viewed the giant Buddha from boat. We did relax our tour overall. It was a short trip to Chengdu but my experiences are priceless. Our guides were so professional, informative and friendly. From the beginning till the end of the tour all went well, and nothing really bad happen. Thanks for all the staffs helped us arrange this tour for us.

We are glad for book this local tour and looking forward to next tour to China and to Chengdu again. Last I know from our guide that Chengdu also famous for its tea culture. Lots of local get out and enjoy their time drink tea and play cards in a tea house. Unfortunately, we did not have chance that time so it must happen next time while travelling Chengdu.
