39 days in Chengdu Itinerary

The home of giant pandas for more than two million years, Chengdu's vast human history cowers in comparison to the natural heritage of the area.

Change things up with these side-trips from Chengdu: Guanghan (Jinyan Lake & Guanghan Sanxingdui Museum), Dujiangyan (Anlan Bridge, Dujiangyan Irrigation System, &more) and Miyaluo Scenic Resort (in Li County). Spend the 31st (Sat) wandering through the wild on a nature and wildlife tour. Spend the 25th (Sun) on the rails with a train tour. There's lots more to do: identify plant and animal life at Giant Panda Breeding Research Base (Xiongmao Jidi), take an in-depth tour of Wuhou Memorial Temple, stroll around Chengdu Renmin Park, and capture your vacation like a pro with an inspiring photography tour.
