🌟 Itinerary Overview: 4-Day Itinerary Highlights of Chengdu + Leshan + Emei Mountain ✅ Day 1: Panda Base - Adorable Pandas → People's Park - Enjoy Tea in a Gaiwan Bowl → Explore the Ancient Streets of Kuanzhai Alley ✅ Day 2: IFS - Photograph the Pandas Climbing the Wall → Du Fu Thatched Cottage - Discover the Poetic Charm → Wuhou Shrine - Visit the Three Kingdoms Site → Jinli Ancient Street at Night ✅ Day 3: Leshan Giant Buddha - View the Three Rivers → Zhanggong Bridge - Indulge in Delicious Food → Suji Ancient Town - Enjoy a Slow-Paced Life ✅ Day 4: Emei Mountain Golden Summit - Chase the Sunrise → Return to Chengdu 📍 Daily Highlights + Avoid Pitfalls 🔹 Day 1: Chengdu City - Adorable + Slow-Paced Life • Panda Base: Must-see: Sun Nursery (see the adorable baby panda), Villa No. 6 (the home of the star panda "Hua Hua"! Hua Hua is resting on Mondays, so don't go empty-handed; it's recommended to enter the park before 7:30 AM to get a front-row seat). The red panda activity area offers opportunities to photograph red pandas roaming the forest; remember to wear comfortable shoes (the park requires 1-2 hours of walking). • People's Park: Order covered-bowl tea at Heming Teahouse (20-30 RMB/cup), and experience Chengdu's "ear cleaning" service (remember to bargain! Usually 30-50 RMB). The park is packed with locals in the afternoon, creating a vibrant atmosphere. • Kuanzhai Alley: Explore the ancient architecture of Kuan Alley, sample snacks in Zhai Alley (recommended: tangyouguozi and danhonggao), and admire old Chengdu murals in Jing Alley. Don't buy expensive souvenirs; the same items are cheaper in city supermarkets. 🔹 Day 2: Chengdu City Center - Trendy + Cultural • IFS Climbing Panda: Free photos on the 7th-floor platform. Arrive before 10 AM (less crowded). Stand directly below the panda and shoot upwards for easy shots. • Du Fu Thatched Cottage: A stunning Chinese garden! The thatched cottage, stele pavilion, and plum garden are all worth visiting. The "Du Fu Poetry Notebook" at the cultural and creative store makes a great souvenir. • Wuhou Temple: The only temple in China where a ruler and his ministers are worshipped together. The statues in the Civil and Military Officials Corridor (Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are particularly impressive), and the Brotherhood Cauldron in the Sanyi Temple (absolutely stunning in autumn when the ginkgo leaves turn yellow) are must-sees. Renting an audio guide (20 yuan/unit) is recommended to hear the stories of the Three Kingdoms. • Jinli Ancient Street: Next to Wuhou Temple, it transforms into a "Three Kingdoms-style night market" after being lit up at night. Food is on the expensive side, but the atmosphere is great. I recommend trying the "Three Great Cannons" (made fresh and eaten on the spot). 🔹 Day 3: Leshan Giant Buddha + Food Extravaganza • Leshan Giant Buddha: Two ways to experience it: ① Hiking route (2 hours of walking, close-up views of the Buddha's head and feet, and a panoramic view of the confluence of three rivers; remember to wear non-slip shoes as the steps are steep); ② Boat tour (take a boat from Wuyou Temple Wharf, 20 minutes for panoramic views of the Buddha, suitable for those with less stamina). Wuyou Temple is located on the mountain behind the Buddha; climbing to the top offers views of the Minjiang River, less crowded and with beautiful scenery. • Zhanggongqiao Food Street: The pinnacle of Leshan cuisine! Must-try dishes: Ji Liuniang's Sweet-Skinned Duck (freshly fried, crispy skin and tender meat), Ye Popo's Bobo Chicken (incredibly flavorful with Sichuan peppercorns), Xu Lianggao (brown sugar flavor to relieve the spiciness), and Diba's Fried Skewers (the taste is decent, no need to queue). • Suji Ancient Town: A popular ancient town among locals. Must-try dishes include Qiaojiao Beef (the soup is so delicious you'll want to lick the bowl clean) and Rice Flower Candy (crispy and not greasy). Stroll along the river in the ancient town; the evening breeze is incredibly pleasant. 🔹 Day 4: Emei Mountain - The Immortal Mountain + Golden Summit • Emei Mountain: It's recommended to take the high-speed train from Leshan to Emei Station (15 minutes), then take a taxi to Baoguo Temple Passenger Transport Center (10 yuan), take the scenic area bus to Leidongping (2 hours), and then take the cable car to the Golden Summit (10 minutes). Must-see: Sunrise at the Golden Summit (check the weather forecast in advance; staying at a hotel near the Golden Summit is recommended during peak season), and the Ten Directions Samantabhadra Statue (shining golden, incredibly breathtaking). Beware of wild Tibetan macaques in the ecological monkey area; they may snatch your food, so don't feed them individually! • After descending the mountain, take the high-speed train directly from Emei Station back to Chengdu (1.5 hours), concluding your trip. 🍲 Chengdu + Leshan Food List (Authentic and Guaranteed) • Must-eat in Chengdu: Hot pot (recommended: "Shu Da Xia" and "Tan Ya Xue," mild spiciness is enough), Bo Bo Chicken ("Ye Po Po" chain is reliable), Mao Cai ("Wu Ming Mao Cai," a local favorite), Rabbit Head ("Shuangliu Laoma Rabbit Head," a legendary spicy dish). • Must-eat in Leshan: Qiaojiao Beef ("Feng San Niang" and "Gu Shi Xiang"), Sweet Skin Duck ("Ji Liu Niang"), Bo Bo Chicken ("Ye Po Po"), Tofu Pudding ("Jiu Jiu Tofu Pudding" with crispy pork). 🏨 Accommodation Recommendations (Value for Money + Convenience) • Chengdu Accommodation: ✅ Near High-Speed ​​Railway Station: Chain hotels near East/South Station (such as Hanting, All Seasons), suitable for catching early morning high-speed trains; ✅ City Center: B&Bs near Chunxi Road/Taikoo Li (walking distance to IFS, Jinli), recommended "Chengdu Taikoo Li High-Altitude River View B&B"; ✅ Near Panda Base: Eco-hotels (such as "Panda Prince Hotel"), allowing entry to the park as early as 7 am to see the flowers. • Leshan Accommodation: ✅ Near Zhanggong Bridge: Chain hotels (such as "7 Days Premium"), with a food street downstairs; ✅ Near Leshan Giant Buddha: Scenic hotels (some rooms offer views of the Giant Buddha, such as "Leshan Jinye Zen Inn Resort Hotel"); ✅ At the Foot of Mount Emei: Hot spring hotels near Baoguo Temple (such as "Emei Mountain Yuquanwan Hot Spring Hotel", perfect for relaxing in the hot springs after hiking). 🚗 Transportation Tips • Chengdu City: Subway + Shared Bikes (Subway reaches all attractions, shared bikes are suitable for short distances); • Chengdu → Leshan: High-speed rail (1 hour, 54 yuan); • Leshan → Emei Mountain: High-speed rail (15 minutes, 11 yuan); • Within the scenic areas: Both Leshan Giant Buddha and Emei Mountain have shuttle buses/cable cars. Purchase tickets in advance through the "Leshan Tourism" and "Emei Mountain Scenic Area" WeChat official accounts. #ChengduTravelGuide #MostComprehensiveTravelGuide #LocalSpecialties #HowToTravel #MultiDayTrip
