From giant pandas to an enormous complex

The Chinese panda breeding centre is housed in Chengdu. The Giant Panda Reserve in the Wolong nature reserve is a breeding centre for giant pandas to prevent the species from going extinct. Another giant, but on a very different scale, is the New Century Global Center: this enormous complex houses a cinema, a beach resort, shops and a full-scale replica of a Mediterranean village. Chengdu is not only the ideal destination for a city trip, but also as the starting point for a longer vacation in China. Treat yourself: book a flight to Chengdu now!
