A step-by-step feel

Chengdu hotel pickup
Your private car collects you and heads to Leshan — about 2 to 2.5 hours. Relax, no station transfers or real-name train booking needed.

Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area
Enter by scanning your passport. Choose the cliff stairway down past the Buddha, or a river boat for the head-on view. We help you pick based on crowds and your energy.

Local Leshan lunch
Break for Leshan classics — bobo chicken, sweet-skin duck or qiaojiao beef soup — ordered and translated for you.
14:00
Oriental Buddha Park or Wuyou Temple (optional)
Add a quieter temple or the reclining-Buddha park if you have time and energy before the drive back.
