Highlights
7 days of pandas, hotpot, snack lanes and sacred mountains
Good to know
Arrival in Chengdu, Jinli snacks and teahouse rhythm
Arrive in Chengdu, settle in, then start gently with Jinli or Kuanzhai lanes for danhonggao egg pancakes, sweet-water noodles or Zhong dumplings depending on timing.
Panda Base morning and People’s Park teahouse
Enter the Panda Base early when pandas are most active, then slow down at People’s Park for covered-bowl tea and a gentle Chengdu lunch.
Market walk, Sichuan cooking class and hotpot night
Shop a local market before a cooking class covering mapo tofu or kung pao chicken, then finish with a guided hotpot dinner calibrated for spice tolerance.
Yulin and Jianshe Road flavour crawl
Stay in Chengdu for a flavour-led day: Yulin neighbourhood, skewers or chuanchuan, ti hua pork trotter soup and Jianshe Road snack options such as brown-sugar rice cakes.
Leshan Giant Buddha day and transfer to Emei
Travel from Chengdu to Leshan for the Giant Buddha, viewing it from the river or cliff route as conditions allow, then continue about 30 km to the Emei area for the night.
Mount Emei temples and forest trails
Explore Mount Emei with a temple-and-forest route around Baoguo, Wannian or mid-mountain sections, adjusted to weather and walking comfort.
Emei farewell and departure
Use the final morning for a light temple visit or rest block before transfer to Chengdu, Emeishan station or the next onward hub.
