chengdu city |
Chengdu was founded in the 3rd century BC
after the Qin people conquered all of China. The city was so important to the
Qin that it was given the name Chengdu, which means "Perfect City."
It is located on a fertile but dry plain, so to successfully farm the region;
the Qin established the world's first large-scale irrigation system. Still in
operation today, this irrigation system supports one of the world's densest
agrarian populations. Chengdu flourished in the Han Dynasty, picking up its nickname "Brocade City," as
it grew rich due to the thriving silk brocade
industry. Filled with history, natural beauty and one of the premier Giant
Panda research facilities in the world, Chengdu is a great addition to your
China itinerary.

Giant Panda Breeding and Research Center

the Giant Panda is known worldwide as the
symbol of animal conservation efforts. It

the research centers like the one you can visit in Chengdu. So much so
that more and more of these magnificent animals are being donated to zoos
around the world. The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, also known
as Panda Base, is one of the most successful of these institutes. In the 1970s zoologists began working with six pandas, there are now
39 located at the base. The environment here is
exquisitely designed with luxurious stands of bamboo. This sanctuary is home,
not only to giant panda, but red pandas, black-necked cranes, golden monkeys,
and flocks of wild birds.

spanning 300 years and your evening's entertainment celebrates the music,

song, featuring famous characters from Chinese fiction. Next the performance
features two soloists on traditional Chinese instruments. Later on in the
opera, a solo will be performed on the Guqin, the Chinese zither. The Guqin is associated
with wisdom and nobleness and is used for only the most traditional and
sentimental music.
Between solos the "Singing of
Cuckoo" is performed in classic Sichuan surd
singing style. Surd singing is one of the most difficult techniques in all of Chinese music, and the Cuckoo
is one of the best-known folk songs among Sichuan people. The show's finale
will be the joyous "Wild Dance of Golden Snake." This traditional
folk music is full of humor, merriment, and the personality of the West Shu country
people who perform the dance.
