Accommodation and Meals
Your home while on the programme will be the hotel in Xiaoxitian, which is located in the Panda Base surrounded by forests and mountains. There are 2 or 3 beds in your the room which will have an attached bathroom with Chinese style toilets which has 24-hour hot water and there is a washing laundry available.
You will have 3 meals provided in the nearby restaurant. The food is typical Chinese and will contain a variety of yummy dishes.
Free Time
The weekends will give you a great opportunity to explore the local area. There are a few shops and bars within 5 minutes walk of the Panda Base, and a town that takes about 10 minutes by car to get to. Alternatively you can simply relax at the Panda Base with some of your fellow volunteers. There is also a nature reserve and zoo next door for you to explore.
