The ultimate family trip in Ya'an! Unlock the panda secret realm + intangible cultural heritage crafts + wild hot springs with your kids

✨【Must-visit Landmark】Get up close and personal with the national treasure✨ • Bifengxia Panda Base: Led by the returned giant panda "Xiangxiang," the adorable pet team awaits! Families can experience "Panda Enrichment Interaction," using fresh bamboo to lure pandas to eat and capture perfect close-up photos. The base has added a "Jungle Roller Coaster," passing through a canyon covered by 95% forest, with an abundance of negative oxygen ions, instantly pulling kids away from electronic devices. • Wildlife World: Ride the 360° panoramic feeding vehicle to feed Siberian tigers and African lions. The safety holes let kids boldly experience the thrill of "snatching food from the tiger's mouth." In the gentle animal zone, you can pet alpacas and feed sika deer. Thousands of birds circle in the Bird Paradise, like a real-life version of "Zootopia." 🏯【Ancient Town Slow Time】A parent-child classroom through a thousand years🏯 • Shangli Ancient Town: Clear streams run through the streets, where kids can catch small fish and shrimp in the shallow water and enjoy bamboo tube water gun battles. The "Intangible Cultural Heritage Bamboo Weaving Workshop" by the ancient bridge offers parent-child craft classes, where children aged 3+ can weave small bamboo baskets by hand. Recommended stay: Yuanshan Yayuan Forest Homestay, wooden cabins hidden in cedar forests, featuring a children's playground and a kilometer-long tree-lined trail, just a 10-minute walk to the ancient town. • Hongdou Xiangsi Valley: Check in at the thousand-year-old red bean trees and cycle along the 13.14 km Rainbow Road. Along the way, interactive "Poetry Flying Flower Challenge" points let kids recite classics while having fun. 🌿【Nature Exploration Camp】Unlock 5 immersive experiences🌿 • Haizishan Dinosaur Adventure: Become a little archaeologist digging dinosaur fossil models, participate in forest CS battles, and drive ATV dune buggies through wetlands (ages 6+). In Peacock World, hundreds of blue peacocks roam freely; kids can feed them by hand and watch their tails fan out. • Mengding Mountain Tea Travel Study: Pick tea leaves with a bamboo basket and make tea, experience the intangible cultural heritage "Dragon's Eighteen Tea Techniques," and complete the "Porter Carrying the Teapot" interactive task to win exclusive medals. On September 7, a special "Endless Summer" themed hike is offered, where families can receive purple-themed medals and Mengding Mountain edition Jellycat plush toys. • Qingyi River Source Nature Education: Night exploration of the firefly secret realm, use telescopes to observe rare birds like the red-tailed robin, simulate the work process of panda patrol rangers, and create leaf collages to promote ecological protection. ♨️【Hot Spring Healing Night】Parent-child time under the starry sky♨️ • Zhougongshan Hot Springs: 85°C ancient water rich in 16 minerals, private villas with independent soaking pools, kids can try hot spring egg boiling and petal baths.
