2 Days Mt Mengding with Bifengxia Panda Base Tour
Summary:
Ya’an about 140km driving distance southwest from Chengdu City has a poetic name as “Rain City” with very pleasant clean air! It is the “real hometown of giant pandas” as the first panda specimen was found here in 1868.
Besides, it boasts the oldest tea species cultivated at Mengding Mountain tea plantations, picturesque Shangli Old Town with rivers and mountains embraced, etc. to be famous for a nice culture enjoyment for anyone. More importantly, Ya’an has been the “Throat of Western Sichuan” from long ago, and the splendid picture scroll of typical Tibetan styled Western Sichuan plateau begins unfolding here after leaving Chengdu Plain on the east side.

After breakfast, you’ll head to Mengding Mountain in Ya’an City (2-hours’ drive). Mengding Mountain is the birthplace of Chinese tea civilization and the cradle of tea culture.

Your today’s tour will first see the No.1 Teapot in the world, then proceed to the Tea Culture Museum, take cable car to the mid-mountain, enjoy tea break at Tiangai Temple, appreciate tea related Poem Steles, walk in Mengdingshan Royal Tea Garden. You’ll sure to get some general ideas about tea culture along the way.After tea culture exploration, you’ll continue to visit tea factory, pick tea in the plantation, and see the whole process about how Mengding tea is made. (Tips: The tea picking activity and performance are offered during late March to June. For detailed info, please contact our travel consultants.)
After the happy time in Mengdingshan, drive to Shangli Ancient Town. Ranked as one of the “Top 10 Ancient Towns” in Sichuan, it is a little town which has a mix of reconstructed and original ancient architecture. Enjoy a stroll through the shop-lined alley between beautiful old-style buildings where, if it’s not raining, bamboo shoots are laid out on big straw mats to dry. Find a quiet spot by the river to relax and sip on a cup of tea or try some local snacks.
After that, you will be driven for about half an hour to Bifengxia Panda
