Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

9.4
4.6/5
114.7k reviews

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is home to many adorable giant pandas, and you can observe these charming national treasures up close. Located in the northern suburbs of Chengdu, the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is approx. 10 km from the city center, and its construction fully simulates the wild living environment of giant pandas, with lakes, streams, bamboo forests, lawns, and more. The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding has many "panda villas", which are enclosed leisure areas for pandas. Each features an outdoor yard and an indoor rest room. When the weather is cool, the giant pandas play in the yard, and visitors can watch the adorable pandas through the railings; when the weather is hot, the giant pandas hide in the air-conditioned rest rooms, and visitors can only watch them through the glass. You can also see pandas in the new area of the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, and they are our hero pandas. The pandas' home is bigger, and their activity range is wider. Seeing pandas is the main draw, but there is plenty more to do and see. A must-visit is our landmark building — the internet-famous Panda Tower. As a new landmark of Chengdu, it stands at the highest point of the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. The tower is 69.8 m tall with 11 floors. Its exterior resembles a giant bamboo shoot, while the interior is shaped like a blooming hibiscus flower. Inside, 81 platforms are distributed throughout, allowing visitors to enjoy the views of the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding from multiple angles. There is also the Art Museum (New Building) located in the dense forest area of the new district, which uses emerging exhibition methods such as multi-sensory interaction, lighting installations, interactive installations, and thermal sensing to create immersive exhibition scenes for visitors. The new area of the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding plans to set up science popularization display boards and interactive facilities with rich content and diverse forms in four major zones, so that visitors can learn about giant pandas while watching them and enhance their interactive experience. On festivals related to animal and environmental protection, themed science popularization activities will also be carried out for visitors of different age groups, such as interactive lectures, family-friendly science popularization, mystery exploration games, and other activities that combine education with entertainment. When you're tired from playing, you can also go enjoy a musical — "Panda": it vividly presents to the audience the scene of magical animals, with the giant panda as their representative, coexisting harmoniously, sharing nature, and loving life on the beautiful and fertile land of Chengdu, Sichuan. Through the form of a musical, it reflects the livable landscape of Chengdu, Sichuan, and the simple and leisurely life of the local people. In terms of total area, it has increased from the original 1,035 mu to 3,570 mu, expanding by 2.5 times. During the expansion, the original topography and landforms were fully followed and preserved, and the multi-level landscape belts of mountain valleys formed by mountain gullies and streams were utilized to create 11 giant panda venues, multiple science popularization venues, and visitor pedestrian streets and other sightseeing locations. After the expansion project is completed, it can accommodate no fewer than 180 giant pandas and companion animals such as red pandas and golden snub-nosed monkeys. As of now, multiple giant pandas and red pandas have moved into the "new homes" in the expansion area, and rare animals such as golden snub-nosed monkeys will also be waiting to welcome everyone in the future. In terms of design, the new area is equipped with ample visitor facilities in accordance with 5A attraction standards. It not only provides basic facilities such as sightseeing vehicles and tourist restrooms, but also equips the hill commercial street, the exit commercial street, and scattered commercial complexes in various zones with a large number of tourism service facilities. The planned business formats include dining, souvenir sales, postal services, cinemas, theaters, and experiential education, among others, and the quantity is sufficient to meet visitor demand. After nearly a year of operation, in response to the practical issues of the new area's large size and uneven distribution of supporting facilities, the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding has added multiple beverage vending machines, direct drinking water dispensers, and shared convenience facilities throughout the new area to improve the visitor experience. Next, the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding will further supplement and improve visitor rest facilities, inquiry service facilities, and guide and navigation facilities to meet visitor needs. The expanded Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding will help Chengdu build a demonstration site of harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature, improve conditions for giant panda research and conservation, protect biodiversity, fully demonstrate the brand value, cultural value, and economic value of giant pandas, and build the cultural tourism brand of "Sanxingdui, Jiuzhaigou, and Giant Pandas: A Leisurely Journey Through Sichuan." New businesses and projects such as the Panda Art Museum, IMAX Theater, and Panda Theater are now open, meeting visitors' needs for dining, entertainment, sightseeing, shopping, and leisure while they watch giant pandas.

Mount Qingcheng
No. 4 of Best Things to Do in Sichuan and Chongqing

Mount Qingcheng

8.9
4.6/5
34.5k reviews

Mount Qingcheng has long been praised as "Tranquil Paradise under Heaven," with its peaks encircling like city walls—hence the name. Legend says Zhang Daoling of the Eastern Han dynasty established Taoism here in a thatched hut, making it the ancestral home of Celestial Master Taoism, where temple incense still burns today. The mountain divides into front and back sections: the front features Taoist temples and cultural relics, commonly referred to as "Mount Qingcheng" by most travelers; the back excels in natural landscapes like pools, waterfalls, streams, and gorges, making it ideal for hiking and summer retreats. The highlights of Qianshan are concentrated. Starting from Jianfu Palace beside the mountain gate, follow the ancient stone steps upward past Natural Picture, Tianshi Cave, Chaoyang Cave, and Shangqing Palace, with the summit's Laojun Pavilion as the final vantage point. Tianshi Cave, also called Changdao Temple, is one of the mountain's largest Taoist complexes—its front courtyard holds a millennium-old ginkgo tree allegedly planted by Zhang Daoling, while the cliffside Ink-throwing Trough behind is said to be where the celestial master drew mountains with vermilion ink. Painting master Zhang Daqian once resided at Shangqing Palace, styling himself "Guest of Qingcheng." At the mountain's base, Yuecheng Lake's mirror-like waters add ethereal beauty to the lush greenery. The rear mountain entrance is the quaint Tai'an ancient town. From here, the trails connect Wulong gully and Feiquan gully into a loop, with views like Misty spring triple pools, Double spring water curtain cave, and Hundred-zhang long bridge accompanied by the sounds of water and shaded woods. The Longyin gorge walkway built along cliffs overlooks rushing streams below, making it a dedicated hiking route. The mountain stays pleasantly cool even in midsummer. The front mountain and back mountain entrances are not connected, usually requiring separate itineraries. Most 1-day tours choose one of the two. The front mountain's main temples can be visited in half a day, while the back mountain loop is longer and requires reserving most of a day. Travelers wishing to see the sunrise often ascend the mountain a day early, staying overnight at mountain temples for convenient morning viewing.

Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum

Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum

4.7/5
47.8k reviews

Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage is the former residence of Du Fu, the Sage of Poetry, during his exile in Chengdu. In the winter of 759 AD, Du Fu came to Chengdu with his family to escape the An Lushan Rebellion. In the spring of the following year, he built a "thatched cottage" by the Huanhua Stream and lived there. Du Fu resided here for three years and nine months in total, during which he composed more than 240 poems that have been passed down to this day. Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage is hailed as "the holy land of Chinese literary history." In the late Tang Dynasty, the poet Wei Zhuang located the site of the thatched cottage and rebuilt the thatched hut. Thereafter, Du Fu Thatched Cottage underwent fourteen large-scale renovations and expansions from the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties to the present day. After the founding of New China, in 1952, Du Fu Thatched Cottage was fully renovated and officially opened to the public. In 1955, the Du Fu Memorial Hall was established, and in 1985 it was renamed Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum. It is now one of the first batch of Major Historical and Cultural Sites Protected at the National Level, a National First-Class Museum, a National Key Protection Unit for Ancient Books, and a National 4A-Level Tourist Attraction. Its area has also grown from the "one mu of cleared thatch" when Du Fu built the cottage to nearly 800 mu today, including 300 mu of cultural relic area and 500 mu of Huanhua Garden area. Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum is a public welfare Class II institution, and is also additionally designated as the Du Fu Thatched Cottage Poetry, Calligraphy and Painting Academy Art Museum and the Chengdu Chinese Calligraphy Museum. It currently has an authorized staffing of 123 positions and 16 internal working bodies, with its main source of funding being admission ticket revenue. Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum is a museum of ancient architecture, a large-scale center for the collection and display of Du Fu research materials and Du Fu poetry calligraphy and painting in China, an important platform for inheriting and promoting excellent Chinese poetry culture, a representative base of classical gardens in western Sichuan, and a protection and exhibition center for ancient architecture in western Sichuan. Its ancient buildings feature wooden column-and-tie structures, with representative buildings including the Grand Hall, the Hall of Poetry History, the Ministry of Works Hall, the Thatched Hut, and the Sutra Library; its distinctive poetic garden views include the Bonsai Garden, the Orchid Garden, and the Plum Garden.

Sanxingdui Museum
2026 Asia 100 - Best Things to Do

Sanxingdui Museum

8.8
4.5/5
18.4k reviews

Sanxingdui Museum is a thematic site museum displaying cultural relics unearthed from the Sanxingdui site, with its grounds located at the northeast corner of the site. The Sanxingdui site is an important remnant of ancient Shu civilization, dating back approximately 3,000 to 5,000 years. Within the site, remains such as the eastern, western, and southern city walls and the inner city wall at Moon Bay still exist, and it is hailed as the "source of Yangtze River civilization." The museum's permanent exhibition is divided into three sections: "A Century of Dreams," "The Majestic Royal Capital," and "Heaven, Earth, Man, and Gods," systematically presenting the archaeological excavation process and research findings of Sanxingdui civilization. The museum displays a large number of precious artifacts unearthed from the site, among which the uniquely shaped bronze objects are particularly striking. The bronze standing figure measures over 2.5 m in total height and is a rare, massive early bronze human figure in China; the pose of its hands, held in a hollow ring grip, has prompted various scholarly interpretations. The bronze mask is over 1 m wide, with extremely exaggerated facial features and eyes that protrude in cylindrical form, creating a strong visual impact. The bronze sacred tree stands nearly 4 m tall, with sacred birds and dragon-shaped ornaments cast on its trunk, and is speculated to be related to ancient sun worship and the mythological "ladder to heaven." In addition, the gold objects represented by the gold staff and the jade and stone objects represented by the jade border zhang are likewise rare and important remains of ancient Shu civilization. When visiting, it is recommended to allow ample time. The three exhibition areas unfold along the threads of archaeological discoveries, the layout of the capital city, and spiritual beliefs, progressing layer by layer. The bronze sacred tree and the bronze standing figure are the museum's iconic exhibits and are well worth pausing to examine in detail. The museum also displays artifacts newly unearthed in recent years, presented to the public, and are worth noting for visitors interested in new archaeological findings.

Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum
2026 Asia 100 - Best Things to Do

Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum

8.7
4.6/5
29.7k reviews

Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum is a shrine and temple complex commemorating Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and other heroes of Shu Han. It consists of Hui Ling Mausoleum, Han Zhaolie Temple, Wuhou Shrine, and Sanyi Temple, and is one of the few shrines in China where a ruler and his ministers are worshipped together. Hui Ling Mausoleum was first built in 223 AD, the third year of the Zhangwu era of Shu Han, when Liu Bei was buried. Over subsequent dynasties, additional sacrificial structures were gradually built around the mausoleum. The special shrine commemorating Zhuge Liang was approximately built during the Southern and Northern Dynasties period, located beside Hui Ling. In the 24th year of the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty (1391), Zhu Chun, Prince Xian of Shu, under the rationale that "sovereign and minister should be integrated as one," merged Hui Ling, the Han Zhaolie Temple, and the Wuhou Shrine into a single entity. Because Zhuge Liang had a profound influence among the common people, they customarily referred to the entire area collectively as the "Wuhou Shrine." The main structures of the existing shrine were rebuilt during the Kangxi era of the Qing Dynasty. The buildings within the shrine are arranged along the central axis from south to north, passing in sequence through the main gate, the second gate, Liu Bei Hall, the transitional hall, and on to Zhuge Liang Hall and Sanyi Temple. Liu Bei Hall enshrines a statue of Liu Bei, with the side halls on either side housing statues of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei respectively, while the east and west corridors contain dozens of statues of Shu Han civil officials and military generals. A large number of Three Kingdoms cultural steles and inscribed plaques and couplets are preserved inside and outside the halls, among which the Tang dynasty "Three Excellences Stele"—with text by Pei Du, calligraphy by Liu Gongchuo, and engraving by Lu Jian—and the "Attacking the Heart Couplet" inscribed by Zhao Fan of the Qing dynasty are particularly well known. The "red walls and bamboo shadows" within the attraction is a representative photo spot in Chengdu, featuring red walls lining the path and lush green bamboo casting shade, with outstanding light and shadow effects. The garden area on the west side of Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum was originally the cemetery of Liu Xiang, a general of the Sichuan army. It contains structures such as a stone memorial archway gate, a three-arch gate, a square pavilion, and Jianxin Hall, featuring the architectural style of northern cemeteries, which is relatively rare in the southwestern region. Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum is adjacent to Jinli Ancient Street, so visitors can easily visit both during the same trip.

Leshan Giant Buddha
No. 9 of Best Things to Do in Sichuan

Leshan Giant Buddha

8.6
4.7/5
32.8k reviews

The Leshan Giant Buddha, also known as the Lingyun Giant Buddha, is situated on the cliff of Qiluan Peak on Lingyun Mountain at the confluence of the Min River, Qingyi River, and Dadu River in Leshan, Sichuan. It is a colossal seated stone statue of Maitreya carved during the Tang Dynasty, standing approx. 70 m tall, with a single instep spacious enough to accommodate over a hundred people. Legend has it that the turbulent waters at the confluence once frequently capsized passing boats. To calm the currents, the monk Haitong of Lingyun Temple initiated the carving of the Buddha. Over several generations, craftsmen continued the construction, which took approx. ninety years to complete. On the cliff to the right of the Buddha, an inscription from the Tang Dynasty titled "Jiazhou Lingyun Temple Great Maitreya Stone Statue" remains to this day, revealing its original name—the Great Maitreya Stone Statue of Jiazhou Lingyun Temple. The common route to visit the giant Buddha is to first arrive at Lingyun Temple beside the Buddha's head, then descend along the winding Jiuzhaigou plank road built against the cliff. View the Buddha's spiral hair buns and robe folds up close, and reach the platform at the Buddha's feet to look up at the full figure. Only then can one truly appreciate the grandeur of "a mountain being a Buddha, and a Buddha being a mountain." Lingyun Temple has continuous incense offerings, and many travelers also join their palms here to pray for blessings. For a different perspective, take a boat cruise or view from the riverside of Leshan ancient city: the continuous mountain outlines of Wuyou Mountain, Lingyun Mountain, and Guicheng Mountain resemble a giant reclining Buddha facing upward, with the grand Buddha seated precisely at its chest—creating the marvel of "Buddha within Buddha." The river view also captures the grand Buddha's full profile alongside the scenery of three rivers, making it especially effortless for travelers with limited stamina or those seeking panoramic shots.

Absolutely beautiful 🤩 Everywhere is just breathtaking. We enjoyed the experience a lot, even though it was super crowded due to the Autumn season (~370,000 tourists entered the park that day). Would love to come back and see the winter scenery effect.

The Chengdu research base of giant panda breeding is really good to visit if you don’t have much time in Chengdu! I entered 8am through the western gate, as it’s quieter than the south entry. I chose to do a walking route, not the shuttle. The initial area in panda valley did not have many pandas and the glass barriers outside had condensate so you couldn’t see through even if you wanted. So this area was a bit disappointing but after moving onto the panda Forrest area the scenery was better and there was LOTS of pandas to see eating and being active, GO EARLY! I went the west > south route as I didn’t care to see Huahua, the lines can get busy and by the time I got to the South Gate there was lots of tours, students on school trips etc. entering from the west ment I had a bit of time to myself and low crowds!

Dujiangyan is truly the greatest water conservancy project. Li Bing deserves to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. The wisdom of the ancients is truly admirable! The only thing I'm not entirely satisfied with is that the shuttle bus from the exit to the entrance of the scenic area costs 10 yuan, which is a bit expensive. I hope this can be improved.

Çin'in Sichuan eyaletinde yer alan Qingcheng Shan (Qingcheng Dağı), Taoizmin doğduğu kutsal merkezlerden biri olarak sarp tepeleri, yoğun yeşil ormanları ve antik tapınaklarıyla büyüleyici bir dağ cennetidir. Sisler altındaki yürüyüş parkurlarında doğayla baş başa kalmak ve Daoist felsefesinin huzurlu atmosferini solumak için keşfedilmesi gereken eşsiz bir kültürel ve doğal mirastır!

Check out Du Fu Thatched Cottage! ✅ A large garden in the heart of the city, with amazing greenery, perfect for a leisurely stroll 😌 The thatched cottages, red walls, and bamboo groves are all photogenic. I used to find Du Fu's poems difficult to understand when I studied them, but after visiting in person, I'm deeply moved. If you enjoy tranquility and appreciate classical poetry, this is a great place to unwind; those just looking for a lively atmosphere might find it a bit too quiet.

The commentary at the Sanxingdui Museum was fantastic! The guide Ms 张敏 was highly professional. The explanation was rich and vivid, giving us a deep understanding of the ancient Shu civilization, and the pacing throughout the tour was well-managed. I am very satisfied with this guided service, highly recommended!)

Reaching the Golden Summit of Mount Emei gives one a sense of sudden enlightenment. It was drizzling when we set off from the foot of the mountain, and the mountain path was wet, but the cable car ride up revealed a clear blue sky. Looking at the sea of ​​clouds from the top was truly exhilarating.

The Leshan Giant Buddha, a sight to behold for millennia, is definitely worth a visit. From Chengdu Shuangliu Airport, navigate to the North Gate of the Leshan Giant Buddha; it's a 1 hour 45 minute drive on the highway. The Huahuwan Sightseeing Bus Station is right across from the parking lot. Take the bus one stop to the North Gate; official guided tours are available there for 120 yuan. Private guides are available inside the scenic area, and you can negotiate a 50% discount. However, once you reach the Buddha's head, the tour doesn't feel very far, and the service ends there, so it's not worth the price. Guided tours don't go to the Buddha's feet. Do not take photos or have others in your pictures at the "Dragon Pool" and "Tiger's Den" scenic spots. Suggested route: North Gate → Lingyun Temple → Buddha Head Viewing Platform → Lingyun Plank Road down to the Buddha's feet → Buddha's feet platform for viewing the Buddha → Exit from the East Gate, but don't cross the road; take the electric cart back to Huahuwan Station to pick up your car. If you want to take a boat to see the Buddha, take the electric cart to the South Visitor Center (Wuyou Wharf), then walk for 20 minutes or take another electric cart (but be aware of long queues) to the actual boarding point. The boat trip takes 40 minutes, with a 5-minute stop at the Buddha statue for photos. The entire trip takes 2 hours and 45 minutes. (Little Special Forces Soldier)

Absolutely stunning! Autumn in Western Sichuan is definitely worth a visit! We couldn't get enough! Kudos to our driver, Mr. Yang Fu; he reminded us of every scenic spot we passed and gave us explanations, and he even stopped to wait for us to take photos and reminded us to wear warm clothes – so thoughtful!
