Great guides to walk you around TCM market and Chengdu

We had wonderful time visiting two markets, one with TCM medicine and the other local with local food. Our guides were very professional and kind people, that we could ask much more on local chengdu life routine as well. Many important details on TCM were shared with us, and explanations on local TCM species. We were also advised on medical question for our son and recommended on TCM supplement. Thank you for great tour and guiding us around the markets!

An amazing cultural experience

It was an amazing cultural experience to see this side of Chengdu. If you have an interest in TCM and want a laid back tour, this is it. It’s not one where you get hit with activity after activity but one that’s relaxed and easygoing. Lance our cultural expert showed us around the TCM wholesale market and later brought us to a local market with fresh produce, we love every part of this easy tour. We also appreciate Lance who gives off good vibes and kindness as our guide and sharing interesting stories about a way of life here.
