Tips

  • Please keep quiet. Do not disturb wild animals with loud noises. Giant pandas and other animals are quiet by nature and will be stressed by a loud and sudden noise. 
  • You may take pictures, but you are not allowed to use a flash. The eyes of animals, especially panda cubs', are vulnerable to flashes.
  • Do not feed animals. Your food is not suitable for them and will make them sick.
  • Do not pick bamboo in the Panda base to feed pandas either. The giant pandas are fed a rationed diet from their keepers.
  • Do not throw anything into the dens to help them maintain the giant panda’s eating habits and avoid any risk of disease that could spread to other pandas. 
  • Don’t scribble on anything, including rocks, trees, and buildings, in the panda base. Please walk on the path to step aside from vegetation.
  • This is a non-smoking area. Smoking, shoot, and fireworks are prohibited in the panda base to prevent the risk of fire.
  • Don’t pick flowers or do anything harmful to the trees or living creatures, including butterflies and caterpillars.
  • Do not sit or stand on fences or any other hazardous places, or climb over protective barriers. Your conduct may affect the satisfaction of other visitors. Please sit on the seats provided for visitors in the panda base.
