It’s been nearly a year since Yang Guang and Tian Tian waved Edinburgh Zoo goodbye. And how we wish Wu were here our Giant Pandas.
Alas our big pals weren’t able to conceive their very own Scottish wean in their 12 years here.
And let’s hope they have better luck now they’re back in the more familiar surroundings of the Chengdu Panda Research Base.
Where there will be among 80 other big bears.
And where the park is set up to resemble the mountain and forest regions in north Sichuan.
With extensive bamboo trees and large green spaces, mirroring the pandas’ natural habitat.
China in your hands
Not that we’d able to see them, you’d think, now they are thousands of miles away in Northern China.
That though is where our old pal Wendy Wu comes in as she knows everyone in the Far East!
And she has set us up with a nine-day In Pursuit of Pandas tour from €2,840pp.
With return flights, all hotels, all meals, expert guide, all sightseeing and entrance fees and all transport in destination.
You will journey from the imperial treasures of Beijing through atmospheric Xian, the Great Wall and the enigmatic legions of Terracotta Warriors.
To reach the charming city of Chengdu, where you will meet its most famous residents – the captivating Giant Pandas.
Love is in the air
Now, obviously the pandas and their love lives have precedence in Chengdu.
But not exclusively and the city is also noted for its Matchmaker’s Corner where parents search for worthy suitors for their children.
All of which you’ll get to see for yourself, children or no children, and we have one here we’re especially keen to get fixed up.
But back to our old pals, say hi to Yang Guang and Tian Tian from us and tell them…
Wish Wu were here our Giant Pandas.
