成都観光の定番 | 成都+パンダ基地+武侯祠+錦里+文殊院+春熙路クラシック2日間ツアー

Welcome to Chengdu, the hometown of giant pandas. This morning, our guide will meet you in the hotel lobby and take you to start today's Chengdu tour. First, you will drive about 17 kilometers to the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in the northern suburbs of Chengdu, to see China's adorable national treasure, the giant panda, and learn about their habits and conservation efforts. The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, or Chengdu Panda Base for short, houses over 100 giant pandas, making it the world's largest captive giant panda breeding base. Here, you can watch giant pandas of different ages playing, eating, climbing hills, climbing trees, and sleeping in the park, and you can also follow your guide to visit the Chengdu Giant Panda Museum to learn more stories about pandas. If you visit in autumn, you may also have the chance to see adorable giant panda cubs at the Moon Nursery and Sun Nursery. Moreover, the famous Chinese panda star Huahua lives here, known for her cute appearance and unique personality, and is called a "top-tier female celebrity." In addition to giant pandas, you can also see red pandas (rarer than giant pandas), Baer's pochards, golden pheasants, collared scops owls, and other rare animals at the Chengdu Panda Base. (Note: 1. Giant pandas prefer cooler weather and are more active in the morning, so it is recommended to arrive early to see more natural panda behavior; 2. Admission to the Chengdu Giant Panda Museum is free, but advance reservation is required, and it is closed every Monday.) After lunch, head to People's Park, praised as one of "Chengdu's most beautiful parks," to experience Chengdu's leisurely culture up close and the slow pace of local life. Here, you can order a cup of fragrant gaiwan tea in a century-old teahouse, sit on bamboo chairs with a few friends and chat leisurely, experience intangible cultural heritage ear cleaning and enjoy the tingling "little comfort" that shoots straight to the top of your head, or watch the exciting local mahjong games and stroll through the famous marriage market. If you are lucky, you may also encounter locals square dancing, practicing tai chi, or playing traditional Chinese instruments. After that, head to visit Wuhou Shrine, known as the "Holy Land of the Three Kingdoms." This is the only existing temple in China where a monarch (Liu Bei, founding emperor of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period) and his ministers (Zhuge Liang, chancellor of Shu Han, Guan Yu, etc.) are jointly worshipped. It is also the most famous memorial site for Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei, and the heroes of Shu Han, and the world's most influential Three Kingdoms relics museum. Recommended route for today's visit to Wuhou Shrine: Zhaolie Temple of Han (housing the gilded statue of Liu Bei) -> Liu Bei Hall (learn about Liu Bei's life, Shu Han history, and Three Kingdoms culture) -> Zhuge Liang Hall (gain a deeper understanding of Zhuge Liang's life and contributions) -> Corridor of Civil Officials and Military Generals (admire up close 24 lifelike statues of Shu Han heroes) -> Sanyi Temple (recall the story of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei's "Peach Garden Oath") -> Red Wall Alley (an iconic photo spot at Wuhou Shrine, best photographed in the morning or afternoon when the light is soft and bamboo shadows are dappled) -> Hui Mausoleum (the joint tomb of Liu Bei, Lady Gan, and Lady Wu) As the sun sets, it is a great time to visit Jinli. Jinli is known as the "First Street of Western Shu" and the "Chengdu version of Along the River During the Qingming Festival," and is one of Chengdu's most representative historical and cultural districts. It was once rated by CNN as one of the 21 most beautiful streets in the world.
