Like the adorable Koalas to Australia, china has its Pandas- and you know how both adults and kids alike simply love their charming ways! Although it is possible for you to catch a glimpse of these fluffy beauties at one of the zoos, we would recommend visiting a 'panda's hometown'. There are three such places you could go to; Chengdu Panda Breeding and Research Centre, Dujiangyan Panda Valley and Bifengxia Panda Base. While Chengdu Panda Centre is north of the city and is the more established out of the three, Bifengxia is 2 hours from Chengdu and has more pandas in their natural habitat. However, if what you are looking for is to get as close as you can to pandas, you might want to consider a volunteer program at Bifengxia or Dujiangyan Panda Valley.
