Half day trip with China's national emblem

This is definitely a must see in Dujiangyan. We booked through the WeChat mini program thanks to the help of our hotel, and thank God we did it! We ordered a DiDi early in the morning, and were the first ones waiting to enter. A few minutes later, two more people arrived, and then several bus bus tours arrived, and it quickly went to chaos. If you don't have your tickets, you can buy it there, but you'll have to queue to get tickets (only opens when the base opens, not before) and then queue behind the ones who already have tickets. We could see people were ready to fight, which explained the board asking people to not fight and act civilized. Don't take me wrong, we're civilized, but we were ready to fight if needed (people pushed and try to cut in line, but we stand our ground and told them off). We finally entered, first, and managed to enjoy some quietness before the groups reached us a dozen minutes later. What we saw made us feel blessed, we felt lucky to see this endemic and endangered species so close. There's no protective glass, so you can see the pandas well. They were very active in the morning as it was cool outside. They're so goofy, it's so cute and funny to witness. There was some panels giving you the names and telling you more about each panda, which was kind of cute. However, it did lack a bit of explanations as to what is done to help for conservation. I liked the fact that there are security guards around the enclosure who won't hesitate to tell people off when they are too loud. We strolled for hours, the park is small, so you can walk around, observing the kids pandas playing with their mother, or the big boys eating and enjoying their meal. Bear in mind it is in a natural environment so it can be quite hot/humid, bring water with you and stay hydrated 💦 Please, remember that these animals are endangered, take good care of them when visiting, don't call them, don't give them food, don't be loud. They're a real treasure 💎 💰Average Price per Person: 58 rmb 📍Address: Huaizhong Road, Shiqiao Village, Qingcheng Town, Dujiangyan City, China (都江堰市青城山镇石桥社区怀中路) 🕰️Business Hours: 8:30-17:00 💞Reasons to Recommend: family friendly, cuteness overload 🗓️Itinerary Scheduling: half day #pandalover #sichuan #dujiangyan #china #endangeredspecies
