Overview

This unique one day tour will take you to explore two not-so-well-know destinations in the rural area of southern Sichuan: Luocheng Ancient Town and Jiayang Steam Train. You will experience the laidback lifestyle of Sichuanese at one of the authentic and less-travelled Luocheng Old  Town and you will also take the old-fashioned Jiayang Steam Train to enjoy the beautiful countryside and then walk around the Britsh and Soviet Union style houses to learn about the coal miners’ life in the past.

What To Expect

Luocheng Ancient Town
At 08:00am your guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel in Chengdu, and then drive to Luoheng Ancient located about 165 kilometers south of Chengdu. It take about 2.5 hours to get there.

On the way, you will see the beautiful fertile countryside of Sichuan province, including villages, farmland, rivers and small mountains.After arriving take a slow walk in the town, and if you like, you may also sit down at a tea-house and enjoy a cup of tea, just as the locals do. This town has not been commercialized, and you will see the old houses and streets where the local people have their shops, teahouses and restaurants.

Have lunch in the town, and then drive to the Jiayang Steam Train attraction, and take the steam train for about the 40 minutes to enjoy the scenery of the beautiful countryside. The train is still used by the locals when they want to go to other villages. There used to be coal mines in this area, and now there is a museum about the history of coal mines and we will visit it. You can still see the old-style houses built with the help of the Soviet Union in the 1950s. In addition, we will also take a walk to see English-style houses built in 1920s and 1930s when a British company run the mines here.

In the late afternoon meet the driver and drive back to Chengdu.
