Is 4 Days Enough for Chengdu🥢
I'm planning a trip to Chengdu and trying to figure out if 4 days is enough, or if I should stay longer.
My rough plan is to visit the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, explore some of the old streets like Jinli Ancient Street, try plenty of Sichuan food, visit a few tea houses, and maybe do a day trip to Leshan Giant Buddha. I've also heard that Chengdu has a much slower pace compared to cities like Shanghai or Beijing, which honestly sounds appealing.
Part of me feels like 4 days should be enough to cover the main attractions, but another part thinks Chengdu is the kind of place where you end up spending extra days just eating, wandering around, and soaking up the atmosphere.
For those who have been to Chengdu, did 4 days feel enough? If not, how many days would you recommend, and what was your favorite part of the city?
