2. 2Panda Tour, Wide and Narrow Alley, Wenshu Monastery; See Off⌄

   This morning, your guide will pick you up at the lobby of your hotel and take you to visit the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. You will have many opportunities for fantastic photos when the pandas are munching on bamboo, playing with each other or some even climbing up trees. They are more active in the morning until about 10am, and after that some of them will go to sleep.

   Then you will turn to the Broad and Narrow Alleys. It is really fun to stroll along this ancient street lined with many old houses and some newly-built ones with a traditional style. You will have your lunch here (own expense), and you can ask for your guide's advice on where to eat.

   Afterwards, we will head to the Wenshu Monastery, which is a Buddhist holy land integrating Buddhist temple relics, ancient garden construction, worship and sightseeing, and religious study.

   At the end of the tour, your guide and driver will escort you to Chengdu airport or train station to catch your scheduled flight or train.
