Your English-speaking guide will pick you up at your Chengdu hotel at around 8:00am (or your convenient time) and excurse to Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, about 10 km far from downtown of Chengdu.

The center has kept more than 20 cute giant pandas as well as some other rare and endangered wild animals, like lesser pandas, black-necked crane and white storks, etc. Here you will have the chance to see how giant pandas get fed and take photos of these living fur balls for your later travel reference. A short film about the panda mating habits and the museum exhibitions concerning the panda history, today and future can enable you to further know about this adorable mammal.

Say goodbye to the plump giant panda and head for Sanxingdui Museum 40 km far from Chengdu to explore the ancient China through the invaluable relics with a history of 3, 000 years ago, including jade ware, bronze ware, gold ware, pottery ware, etc.

In the afternoon, you can choose to return to your hotel, or get off at your desired spot in the city center or go to see the noted Sichuan opera face changing to marvel at how many different masks the performer can change in the twinkling of an eye.
