In the morning, your adventure begins with a comfortable hotel pickup in Chengdu, followed by a picturesque two-hour drive to one of Sichuan’s most iconic landmarks—the Leshan Giant Buddha. As you approach, your guide will introduce the fascinating history of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, a breathtaking 71-meter (233-foot) statue carved directly into the cliffs overlooking the confluence of three rivers. Built over 1,200 years ago, this masterpiece was designed to calm the turbulent waters below, a testament to both spiritual devotion and ancient engineering. Walking along the narrow stone pathways, you’ll marvel at its sheer scale—each ear is seven meters long, its shoulders span 28 meters, and its toes stretch an incredible 8.5 meters. Your guide will share the famous local saying: “The mountain is a Buddha, and the Buddha is a mountain.” You’ll have the option to take a boat tour for a panoramic view, where the full grandeur of the statue is best appreciated from the water.
After your visit to the Buddha, a peaceful Dadu River Cruise awaits. Drifting along the gentle currents, you’ll soak in stunning scenery as towering cliffs and verdant hills create a mesmerizing natural panorama. Your guide will recount ancient legends of the river, tales of monks, emperors, and the enduring spiritual significance of this sacred landscape. As you glide past the massive stone guardian, you’ll see how time and nature have shaped this historical wonder, its weathered features blending harmoniously into the surrounding cliffs.
Next, your journey takes you into the heart of Leshan’s old town, where the region’s vibrant flavors come to life. Your guide will lead you through lively markets and hidden alleyways to a beloved local eatery, where you’ll indulge in authentic Leshan specialties—perhaps a steaming bowl of Leshan sweet-skinned duck or fiery kou shui ji (mouth-watering chicken), a dish bursting with Sichuan’s signature numbing spice. As you enjoy your meal, your guide will explain the origins of these dishes and how Leshan’s riverside culture has influenced its cuisine.
After your visit to Leshan, we will drive directly back to Chengdu, a journey of approximately two hours. Along the way, our professional driver will ensure a smooth and comfortable ride, allowing you to relax and take in the changing landscapes—from lush countryside to the vibrant cityscape of Chengdu. Your guide will be available to answer any questions, share more insights about Sichuan’s rich culture, or simply let you unwind after a day of exploration. Upon arrival in Chengdu, you will be dropped off at your hotel, concluding a memorable day of history, nature, and cultural discovery.
