Pandas in Giant Panda Breeding Research Base

Details
Written by Jure Štern

In the world today there are only living 1000 pandas. The white and black animals are a real joy to watch.

In the morning we go to Giant Panda Breeding Research Base, which is located 10 km north of the town centre of Chengdu. The pandas are most active in the morning till 10 A.M. when there is feeding time. We caught them by playing, rolling, feeding and at the end sleeping.

Pandas are almost extinct, that is why the researchers are trying new methods to artificially impregnate pandas to obtain it's species.

It is time to head back to the hotel. We walk along the road trying to find the right bus station. All the routes are written in Chinese. A young boy steps to us and starts to help us, of course in Chinese :). We could not understand it, he was so kind to walk with us 15 minutes to another station to show us the right bus station. Then he headed back to his own station.
