Giant Panda Discovery

An insider's journey of discovering the giant pandas off the scene!

Become an "insider" to meet giant panda "Le Le"! Go behind the scenes into "restricted" areas to peek into the daily lives of giant pandas up close! Our professional animal caretakers will explain and demonstrate how they perform daily physical check-ups and share interesting characteristics and behaviours of the giant pandas. You'll also have the chance to make nutritious snacks for "Le Le" yourself, and enjoy the ultimate thrill of meeting giant panda up close! As a special memento, you'll receive a participation certificate at the end of the programme!
