Upon arrival in Chengdu, meet your driver and transfer by private vehicle to The Upper House Chengdu, located within the laneways and courtyards of Taikoo Li Chengdu in Jinjiang District, near the historic Daci Temple area. After check-in, enjoy time at leisure to settle into your Studio 60 room and explore the surrounding lifestyle district. In the evening, enjoy a refined Italian set dinner at Tivano, the hotel’s modern Italian restaurant featuring seasonal ingredients, house-made pastas, freshly baked pizzas and grilled dishes.

After breakfast, enjoy a city exploration introducing the city’s heritage, neighbourhood culture and relaxed local rhythm. Begin with People’s Park, one of the best places to experience Chengdu’s traditional teahouse lifestyle, where locals gather over tea, mahjong and conversation. Continue to Kuanzhai Alley, a restored historic quarter known for its traditional courtyard-style architecture, teahouses, boutiques and local snacks. Depending on routing and timing, the tour may also include Wuhou Shrine, one of Chengdu’s key Three Kingdoms heritage sites, together with nearby Jinli Ancient Street, a lively pedestrian street with Sichuan-style architecture, food stalls and craft shops. Return to the hotel or end around Taikoo Li Chengdu, where guests can continue exploring the lifestyle district at leisure.

After breakfast, join a half-day small group tour to Chengdu Panda Base, one of Chengdu’s most iconic attractions and a must-visit for first-time travellers to the city. Spend the morning learning about giant pandas and observing them in a landscaped conservation setting. Return to the city and enjoy the afternoon at leisure. In the evening, experience a “Farm-to-Table” MICHELIN tasting menu at Mi Xun Teahouse. Set within a restored heritage courtyard, Mi Xun Teahouse is described in the hotel brochure as Chengdu’s only restaurant awarded both One MICHELIN Star and a MICHELIN Green Star, with a vegetarian menu inspired by Sichuan cuisine and the nearby Daci Monastery.

Enjoy breakfast and a full day at leisure to experience Chengdu at your own pace. Guests may choose to explore the boutiques, cafes and dining options around Taikoo Li Chengdu, relax at the hotel, or make use of the wellness facilities including the gym and 25-metre heated indoor pool. Later, enjoy a 2-hour Intangible Heritage Journey at Mi Xun Spa, a curated wellness experience set within the hotel’s tranquil spa environment. This day is designed to keep the pace relaxed while still adding a distinctive Upper House Chengdu experience.

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel and some final time at leisure, subject to flight timing. Check out from The Upper House Chengdu and transfer by private vehicle to the airport for your onward flight.
