Wolong Giant Panda Nature Reserve

Located at 6,500 feet in the verdant mountains of Sichuan Province, this reserve is one of the last strongholds of the giant panda

I travelled to the Wolong Giant Panda Research Centre by private car with a Chinese lady driver. It cost me about $200 Canadian and was well worth it. We visited both the Wolong Panda Centre and the Dujiangyan Panda Centre. I paid for my driver to accompany me inside the Centres and this proved to be wise as she used her phone to tell me details about the pandas and the parks. I had visited the Wolong Centre before the terrible earthquake of 2007. At that time the park was small and modest, but it had 16 one-year-old pandas!!! I was curious to see how much the park had changed. I was truly amazed by the development of large enclosures with lots of natural activities for the pandas to enjoy. The new Wolong Panda Centre nestled in the Wenqiao mountains is absolutely wonderful. At each enclosure, there are signs telling the visitor the names and ages of the pandas. If you can spare the time, Wolong is a must for the panda enthusiast.

Jinsha Site Museum

Reviewed By ggm96822 - Honolulu, United States

A wonderful island of calm, with the ebony forest, bamboo grove, waterscape and stone path all unexpected treats in addition to the very well explained archaeology site - some of the best English explanatory signs that I have seen anywhere. (I also liked the "No Striding" signs to keep people from stepping over the handrails. Both the housing and the relic display building are very well designed, the collection is displayed very attractively.
