One Day Family Trip with Kids:Panda Visit and Culture Activities Experience

Visit Chengdu Panda Base to see so many pandas and red pandas in one place and watching the little pandas playing together is definitely one of the best Chengdu things to do and is a real highlight of our visit.

Tibetan Quarter nearby Wuhou Temple; Known as Little Lhasa, Chengdu’s colorful Tibetan quarter is as close as one can get to Tibet without traveling to the remote Sichuan countryside or crossing the border to Tibet itself. Wander down Wuhouci Heng Jie, directly opposite Wuhou Temple, and take in the sights: monks wrapped in maroon robes counting beads behind their backs, vendors selling yak butter on the street, and shop after shop of Tibetan Buddhist religious icons, prayer flags and wheels, tapestries, incense, wildly patterned leather boots, and beads of every hue, size and price. We will not only walk around this Tibetan Quarter, but also taste Tibetan food like yak meat, drink yak butter tea,together with a Tibetan culture demonstration by our guide.

Just outside Wuhou Temple is Jinli Street, a narrow street of shops, restaurants and craft stalls. The architecture of this quaint pedestrian street mirrors the Qing Dynasty style of the temple making it one of the most popular Chengdu places of interest.
