Day6 Chengdu — Giant pandas & Sichuan table
Honestly, this is one of those days people bring up for years. We’ll point you at Jinli and Kuanzhai old lanes — and since it’s all yours, you linger where it grabs you and wander off when you’re ready. Somewhere in there, Sichuan hot pot, the kind locals actually line up for, not the tourist version. And here’s the bit that’s properly ours: Sichuan opera face-changing (bianlian) and Shu embroidery — a private face-changing show and a Shuxiu studio. Most tours can’t get you in the room — we can.
