Day 1.

Our Chengdu private tour guide and driver will meet you at the lobby of hotel and escort you to start 2 Days Chengdu Gourmet Tour with Cooking Class.

Firstly, you will be taken to a hidden spiritual Buddhist temple in the hustling downtown of Chengdu – Wenshu Temple. The large Buddhist Wen Shu Monastery in the north of town has become a major tourist attraction in Chengdu and the surrounding neighborhood has undergone extensive renovations. The temple itself is clean and relatively quiet. There are small ponds and underused buildings in corners of the complex where you can sit and relax. Every now and then a preoccupied monk scurries past, but the grounds are mostly filled with strolling visitors.

Your lunch will be arranged at the local restaurant popular with the local people to stay away from the tourists' meals.

After lunch, drive to the Renmin Park to experience the most authentic view into Chengdu local life. Have a cup of tea in a traditional tea house, watch the local older couples dancing, and enjoy the typical leisure lifestyle of Chengdu.

Your last destination is Jinli ancient street to treat yourself to the local snacks and artifacts. The elegant style of the architectures gives you a glimpse at what Sichuan looked like during the Qing Dynasty.

In this evening, you’ll try Sichuan Hot Pot in local restaurant.
