Discover Mysterious Tibetan Area in Sichuan
Compared to western Sichuan which is already famous among Chinese adventurers and photographers, northern Sichuan is like a hidden treasure waiting for people to go and discover it. In northern Sichuan, you'll find the source of the Yellow River, the peaceful homeland of Tibetan and Qiang people, and one of the best-kept secrets that aren't even known to most Chinese people.
Let's explore this mysterious land on a 5-day Sichuan tour before it becomes part of the beaten path.

Chengdu Adventure
Our experience was enormously enhanced by our guide, Fifi. Her enthusiasm, passion, and knowledge about the Pandas made the whole experience complete! We definitely enjoyed Chengdu’s food and nightlife. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the Wenshu Monastery with Fifi providing detailed information and history that I found mind inspiring. You know, I had been to many monasteries before…but this was fascinating. We also had fun at the markets! LOL more
