Panda Family Tour was made of a group of young people who love pandas, and also we can speak fluent English. We always want to help the people who love pandas or animals to offer them a chance to get close to panda and to do something for pandas .

Dujiangyan Irrigation System

The historical irrigation system dates back to the 3rd century B.C and still functions.

Reviewed By ursbruno - Basel, Switzerland

We came by taxi from the Qingcheng Mountain Base to the Main Entrance (40 RMB). At the entrance is a special desk for foreigners with a English speaking person. We enjoyed the walk on the hanging bridge over the Feishayan Spillway, where during the flooding season the stone and sand will be deposited. We followed the Eastern Road on the Fish, the divider of the inner and outer River. We reached a food area, where we enjoyed local dishes with a Harbin Beer. Further up the island you reach the Yuzui Water dividing Dike. The inner River will bring the water to the Chengdu plain for irrigation, and the outer river will bring away the additional flood water in rainy saison, avoiding the flooding of the Chengdu area for over 2000 years! Over the Anlan Suspension Bridge we reached the path to the Julei Pass, where you have a good view over the whole Dujiangyan Scenic Area. On the way down you reach the Shidian Temple and the antique town. Walking down the main street with many shops and food outlets, you reach the ancient Gate. Walk through the gate, cross the bridge ahead and turn right into the open park. Cross the park and turn right on the street ahead. After crossing the bride you see on the right hand side a glas covered stairway, leading down to the Lidui Park Station, where you can take the High Speed Train back to Chengdu (20 RMB). Calculate 3 hours or more for an enjoyable excursion within the Lidui Park.

Panda Valley

Reviewed By amitavamichaelk - Lake Stevens, United States

This is the third Panda facility that my wife and I visited, and I was so impressed by this facility, particularly the size and habitat for each Panda, as well as the signage, amenities, cleanliness, and organization of this Location, that it quickly has become our favorite panda bear conservation center in all of the world! We just came from war long yesterday, and compared to that facility, the habitat enclosures here are far more conducive to a stress feet free environment for the panda bears – additionally, behind the compound or wild training areas to prepare pandas for a release back into the wilderness, and this location was right on the edge of a mountain range that seem to be perfect for Wild pandas – in fact, the red panda habitat near the top of this compound had free roaming red pandas that kept moving back-and-forth between the mountain and the facility. Most importantly, this facility was tranquil, incredibly clean (including the bathrooms which were as good as any airport lounges bathrooms), and signage here, along with the environment for tourists, was impeccable; the best I’ve seen probably anywhere east of Germany! The only negative aspect had nothing to do with the facility... even though there were so many signs requesting people to be silent, even during the shoulder season, many local Chinese visitors here raise their voices and even shouted very loudly: unbelievable, because you’d think that they would have more respect for their own wildlife, in a tranquil place like this. With the amount of respect for the pandas by the staff here, I am sure that this facility does incredible rehabilitation and release work to rebuild the wild panda population in China – this is definitely the first place anybody visiting this region should come and see, if you’re interested in panda bear conservation!

Erwang Temple

Reviewed By Ailton007 - Seattle, United States

We took a Didi to the entrance area (type in "Erwang Temple" on Didi) and then spent two hour walking this very scenic area. First up to Yulei pavilion, then walk the area until we arrived at Erwang temple. Almost felt like a jungle temple and reminded us of Cambodia. Lots of greem, historic relics and statues to check out. We then walked across the Anlu suspension bridge and did the irrigation system on our own before taking a train back to Chengdu. We spent roughly 4 hours total exploring Dujiangyan scenic area. The best tip to really do it this way around and NOT start with irrigation system. Less crowds i.e. when you want to walk the bridge! We didn't book any tour and were told that irrigation system tour was nothing too special... so if you can, recommend to explore on your own!
