Chengdu is featured in Part 8 of my 25-day Elderhostel program in China called “Tibet, Border Kingdoms, and Yangtze River Study Cruise” with stays in ten cities and three days cruising on the Yangtze River in April and May 2007.

I will be publishing a series of articles from this adventure. Visit my home page to see what is available beginning with "The Many Faces of China": http://www.worldisround.com/home/jdtan/index.html

We arrived in Chengdu for a one-night stay after first flying from Lijiang to Kunming and then to Chengdu, two of eight flights within China during our stay.
