CHENGDU -- Four giant pandas officially met the public at the Jiuzhaigou panda park in Southwest China's Sichuan Province on Tuesday.
The four pandas, Xin Xin, Tian Tian, Hai Hai and Xiao Liwu (meaning "Little Gift" in Chinese), came from two bases under the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda on Oct 31, 2019.
