Ya'an

In Sichuan province

Ya'an nestles in the misty foothills where the Sichuan Basin rises toward the Tibetan Plateau, famed as the Rain City for its near-constant drizzle. It is a cradle of Chinese tea culture, with Mount Mengding cultivating tribute tea for over two millennia. The Bifengxia base is a major panda breeding and rewilding center. The climate is mild, humid, and often foggy. For an international student, Ya'an offers pandas, ancient tea gardens, and lush mountain scenery near Chengdu.
