Leshan's Great Buddha & the Old Town of Huanglongxi

境享佛溪 · 乐山大佛 + 黄龙溪古镇 一日游

Stand face to face with a 71-metre Buddha carved out of a red cliff, then walk the "Ten Ancient" streets of a riverside town that has stood for 2,100 years — two icons of Sichuan in one well-timed day, with a Sichuan lunch in between.

The World's Largest Stone Buddha

世界第一大佛 · 乐山大佛

Carved out of the red cliff face at the confluence of three rivers, the Buddha stands 71 metres tall — begun in the Tang dynasty and finished only 90 years later, when the cliff was finally scaled.

开凿于唐玄宗开元初年,历时90年方告完成,佛像高71米。

Jiyuan, Lingyun Temple & the Nine-Zigzag Plank Road

禅缘 · 凌云寺 · 下九曲栈道

Inside the scenic area you also walk the Lingyun Temple complex, cross the Jiuzhang Plank Road cut into the cliff above the river, and reach the Lingbao Pagoda for the classic three-river view.

The "Ten Ancient" of Huanglongxi

Your Day, Hour by Hour行程安排 · 一日精华

D1

Chengdu → Leshan Buddha → Zhang Gongqiao → Huanglongxi → Chengdu

成都 → 乐山大佛 → 张公桥 → 黄龙溪 → 成都 Breakfast & dinner on your own · Lunch included  ·  Depart 07:00 早7点发车

07:00 · Depart Chengdu 成都出发

Leave Chengdu at 07:00 and take the Chengdu–Leshan expressway straight to the Buddha. Sit back for roughly two hours — the rivers widen, the hills close in, and the first sight of the cliff face arrives well before you do.

上午7点从成都出发,乘车经成乐高速公路至乐山。

09:00 · Leshan Giant Buddha 乐山大佛

The world's largest stone Buddha — 71 metres tall, carved out of the red cliff where the Dadu, Min and Qing rivers meet. Work your way up through Jiyuan, Lingyun Temple and the Daxiong Treasure Hall, then follow the Nine-Zigzag Plank Road cut into the cliff face to the Lingbao Pagoda lookout, where all three rivers run together below you.

游览世界第一大佛——乐山大佛,禅缘、凌云寺、大雄宝殿、下九曲栈道、观三江汇流、灵宝塔。

12:00 · Sichuan lunch, included 午餐(含)

Eight dishes and a soup at a partner restaurant — ten to a table, dishes scaled down for smaller groups, no drinks included. Lunch is deliberately timed for 12:00–13:00 so the tour dodges the midday rush at the Buddha.

合作餐厅用中餐:十人一桌,八菜一汤,不含酒水;一般在12-13点用午餐,避开参观高峰。

14:00 · Zhang Gongqiao Food Street 张公桥

A relaxed stop at Leshan's liveliest food street, the city's most photographed snack lane — sweet-skinned duck, qiaojiao beef and chuan chuan xiang skewers, and a good half-hour to stretch your legs before the drive east.

前往网红景点张公桥观光游览。

15:30 · Huanglongxi Ancient Town 黄龙溪古镇

A national AAAA-rated old town on the Fu River, backed by Muma Mountain and built around five square kilometres of heritage. The core is the "Ten Ancient" — old streets, old trees, old temples, old dikes, old ferry wharves, old battlefields, old cliff tombs and old yamen gates — with a riverside market street to finish.

4A级景区"黄龙溪古镇",东临府河、北靠牧马山,以"十古"著称。

18:00 · Return to Chengdu 返回成都

Head back west to the city and wrap up the day. The evening is entirely yours: skewers in the old town, hotpot in Chengdu, or a riverside teahouse and a cup of gaiwan tea.

游览完毕后结束愉快的旅程返回成都散团,晚上可自由安排火锅、担担面或盖碗茶。

Food journey

Lunch Is on Us, the Rest Is Yours午餐已含 · 晚间自由

Lunch is the one meal this tour covers, and it is the meal that matters — a proper seated Sichuan lunch on the road between the Buddha and the old town. 本行程含中餐,早晚餐自理。

Sichuan lunch, included 中餐(已含)

Eight dishes and a soup at a partner restaurant, ten to a table, drinks not included; with smaller groups the menu scales down to match. Served around 12:00–13:00 to keep the tour ahead of the midday crowd.

十人一桌,八菜一汤,不含酒水;不到十人,菜肴根据人数递减;12-13点用午餐。

Zhang Gongqiao on the way back 返程张公桥

Leshan's most famous snack street sits between the two stops — sweet-skinned duck, qiaojiao beef and chuan chuan xiang skewers, the three dishes the city is known for, all worth trying before the drive east.

甜皮鸭、翘脚牛肉、串串香,乐山三大名吃,返程途中自由打卡。

Breakfast & dinner on your own 早晚餐自理

Early start, late finish — the evening in Chengdu or back in Huanglongxi is yours to fill: hotpot, dan dan noodles, or a covered bowl of tea and a face-changing show.

晚上可自由安排火锅、担担面或川剧变脸,一盏盖碗茶收尾。

Plan Ahead, Travel Easy行前须知 · 常见问题

Departure, pick-up and the road to Leshan 发车与接站

The tour leaves Chengdu at 07:00 and takes the Chengdu–Leshan expressway, arriving at the Buddha in the mid-morning — early enough to beat the coach queues, late enough that you do not have to rush out of bed. The group is picked up from a central Chengdu meeting point; guests who miss the departure are treated as no-shows.

上午7点从成都出发,乘车经成乐高速公路至乐山;请按确认单时间到集合点,逾时视为放弃行程。
Is there shopping on the way? 是否有购物店

No scheduled shopping stop. Leshan's scenic area does have shops selling local specialities and Buddhist souvenirs, and the Buddha Blessing Hall and ecological park are part of the scenic-area facilities — shops of that kind inside a tourist site are not the same as a tour-organised shopping stop, and nothing is compulsory.

行程不含购物店。乐山景区内有土特产及朝佛纪念品出售,佛缘堂法物流通处等属景区配套设施,不属于旅行社组织的购物店,不强制消费。
ID, passports and tickets 证件与门票

Both sites use real-name entry: bring your original passport (Chinese guests: ID card). Concession refunds apply to Chinese ID holders only — overseas passport holders are charged the full adult rate. If you hold student, disability, press or military passes, tell us when you book and we will confirm with the scenic area what applies.

实名制入园请携带护照原件;门票优免退费政策仅适用中国身份证件,外宾按全价执行;如持优惠证件请报名时提前告知,以景区核实为准。
How long is the day, and how much walking? 行程强度

It is a full day with an early start. The Buddha itself involves a fair amount of climbing — the plank road and stairways are stepped — while the Huanglongxi old town is flat riverside walking. Around three to four kilometres on foot in total, with the coach there whenever you want a break.

全天早出晚归,乐山大佛段有较多台阶与栈道,黄龙溪古镇为平地步行,全程步行约3-4公里。
What about children and older guests? 儿童与长者

Children are charged for the vehicle, lunch, insurance and guide service only — no entrance tickets — and the town and the Buddha's lower platforms are manageable for most children. The main caution is the stepped plank road at the Buddha, which guests with limited mobility can skip while the rest of the group continues.

儿童只含车、餐、险及导游服务费,不含门票;大佛下九曲栈道台阶较多,行动不便者可选择不登,团队照常行程。
Can the itinerary be adjusted? 行程调整

As with any Sichuan day tour, the running order may shift with the season — the guide adjusts the sequence to suit the light and the traffic, without adding or dropping any of the listed sights. If you need a private vehicle, an English-speaking guide or a slower pace, say so when you enquire and we will build the day around it.

行程内容可能根据季节变化调整,在不减少景点的情况下由导游安排游览顺序;如需私家车、英文导游或放缓节奏,请提前说明。
