About Panda Valley

Its wooded setting has been managed to resemble panda habitat more closely, with bamboo and mixed forest supporting conservation and nature education. Public viewing introduces the animals and this habitat work, while research and training areas remain distinct. It is separate from the China Conservation and Research Center’s Dujiangyan Panda Base near Qingcheng Mountain.

What to look for

  • Panda viewing is set within a wooded conservation landscape.
  • Habitat restoration and nature education explain the centre’s broader role.
