China’s latest giant panda conservation hub is officially welcoming visitors—on a trial basis—as of this week! 🌟 The sprawling Mianyang base, operated by the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda, spans 120 hectares (that’s roughly 170 soccer fields!) and features 54 state-of-the-art enclosures designed to mimic the pandas’ natural habitat.
🚀 Since November 2025, 20 adorable giant pandas have been settling into their new home. After a month of close monitoring, caretakers confirm the fluffy residents are thriving! The facility isn’t just a tourist magnet (it can host 22,000 visitors daily!)—it’s a full-service hub for breeding, medical care, rescue ops, and eco-education. Perfect for AND panda lovers AND climate-conscious Gen-Z travelers!
💡 Pro tip: Add this to your 2026 travel bucket list! Sichuan’s blend of cutting-edge conservation and cute content is exactly what your Instagram feed needs. 📸
