Chengdu is the capital of the state of Sichuan, and as such
has the official “Giant Panda Breeding Research Centre” or something like
that. It’s a beautiful reserve/park/zoo
that showcases the 2 kinds of pandas that are indigenous to the area, the giant
panda (black and white variety) and the small lesser panda, (red and white with
raccoon mask and tail). We had a grand
time viewing these gorgeous creatures in a beautiful setting, even though there
were probably 8-9 thousand others viewing as well. If you watch the video clip you’ll hear just
how crowded it was wherever there was a panda in shooting (cameras only)
range. Enjoy the pics, which also
include some food pictures from a Shanghai dumpling restaurant and a bar that
A. and S. frequent. There is something for everyone in beautiful Chengdu!https://flic.kr/s/aHsjYZP5Y8
