As a demonstration project of giant panda ex-situ conservation, the Chengdu Panda Base has not only dedicated itself to giant panda conservation, but has also made great efforts to create a beautiful natural and living environment for all animals here, including giant pandas and red pandas. With the efforts of all the staff, it has made great strides in terms of environmental protection to share with the world.

The Giant Panda Museum, along with satellite museums in the Research Center and Panda Hospital covers an education space of 7,000m2 in total. It worked with design companies from the United States to create modern, interactive learning experiences.

Through these learning facilities, visitors can better understand the depth of research and commitment it makes to help endangered species.

People need to understand that this amount of research cannot be done for all the plants and animals that are in danger, and that conservation depends on all of us. The base is a unique facility and network for some very fortunate species.

As a famous sightseeing destination and a window to the wild, the base improved its service facilities for tourists. Its efforts have made the base highly attractive to foreign and domestic visitors.
