Chengdu is the most relaxed big city in China, and the easiest place to travel with children. We visit the panda base early, take a market-to-table cooking class, and leave time for teahouses and parks.
A day trip to the Leshan Giant Buddha adds a sense of scale, and the high-speed train makes it easy.
