Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding

The Giant Panda Breeding Research Base is a breeding and conservation center where you see and learn about both giant pandas and red pandas. While many people think it's just a kind of zoo, they'll be pleasantly surprised to find that it's divided into large areas that replicate pandas' wild habitat in the hands of several veterinarians responsible for the bears. It's a good opportunity to see this beautiful animal threatened with extinction. It's striking how quiet they are and their graceful movements. It's especially nice to see the little ones playing with each other. All in all, we left the center feeling happy.

This isn't any tourist Zoo foreigners see a Panda. It is a breeding and research center that attracts thousands of Chinese and foreign tourists. You can learn a lot about the Pandas and see them in a very close to nature. It has over 500 acres so the Pandas may be in their natural environment and thrive. If they are lucky, you can see newborn bears through a glass (they can not take pictures even without flash). There is also the Red Panda species that I never knew existed until I visited this place. The photos will tell you the rest.

Once again, we're travelling in taxi! Bears live in this beautiful natural area and it's wonderful to spend a morning is peace and harmony with nature. It was a great experience to see the bears. I recommend a visit!
