1-Day Itinerary

Important Note:
In case of seasonal changes, site closures, or ticket availability issues (especially during peak travel periods), Sanxingdui Museum may be replaced with the Jinsha Site Museum.
The Jinsha Site, located in western Chengdu, was the capital of the ancient Shu Kingdom between the 12th and 7th centuries BCE. The site yielded the world’s most concentrated cache of ivory, gold, and jade artifacts from that era. Among its most iconic discoveries is the Sun and Immortal Bird gold ornament, now used as China’s cultural heritage emblem and the symbol of Chengdu. Opened in 2007, the museum showcases mysterious relics of Shu civilization and a unique bronze culture. While Jinsha and Sanxingdui share cultural similarities, Jinsha lacks city walls and is considered the later phase of the Sanxingdui culture, marking the political shift of the ancient Shu capital.

Tour 'Wow' Points

Sanxingdui Museum

Tour the Sanxingdui site and explore its fascinating ancient civilization. Named after three large earth mounds that rise abruptly from the Chengdu Plain, Sanxingdui is a modern archaeological museum dedicated to the ancient Shu culture and one of the most important Bronze Age sites in southwestern China.The discovery of two massive sacrificial pits from the Shang dynasty revealed thousands of rare artifacts, including the Bronze Divine Tree, the Golden Staff, and the towering Bronze Standing Figure—many of which are unique in the world. These findings pushed back the timeline of the Shu civilization to 5,000 years ago and offer rich historical, scientific, artistic, and visual value. Here, you’ll experience the brilliance of ancient Shu culture and encounter the many mysteries that still surround Sanxingdui.

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is the largest giant panda breeding research institution in the world and the best place to observe these national treasures. The base boasts a beautiful ecological environment with lush greenery, making it a comprehensive attraction that integrates research, education, tourism, and conservation. Here, you can closely observe the adorable antics of giant pandas, from munching on bamboo and climbing trees to rolling around, all of which will bring a smile to your face. In addition to the pandas, the base features a specialized science education area, allowing visitors to learn about their habits and conservation knowledge while enjoying the charming pandas. There's also a special “Panda Encounter” experience, where you can meet the celebrity panda "Hua Hua."
