“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift… that’s why they call it the present”

Hey, friends today I want to share something which is something really lovely.
When I was in China with my other 4 friends from Portugal, Romania, Egypt and USA decided to visit Panda<3.
Travelling for more than 45 hours was one of the best decisions. Yes, 45 Hours trust me and us five did it reason being simple craziness in mind and love to explore more. We were very much excited and happy at the same time. The city was quite big with a good transportation system.
It was 7 AM in the morning and we were all set to go and see Panda live.
Excited stepping as fast as we could to reach the destination quickly.
Took the metro and then bus to reach Panda home. Purchase a ticket to enter and thanks to college ID card for rebates in tickets.

And what now? We explored that place for around 5 hours without caring about anything visiting new areas and looking for pandas and eye close for while and thanking god for the wonderful day.
It was blissful meeting Pandas <3
Some amazing facts we got to know from Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. • Pandas have been a symbol of peace in China.
• Pandas can stand upright, but their short hind legs aren’t strong enough to support their bodies.
• An adult giant panda weighs about 200-300 pounds (90-135 kg).
• Giant pandas have 42 teeth. Like humans, giant pandas have two sets of teeth in their lifetime. • The panda spends 14-16 hours a day eating bamboo.
• On average, a panda eats 25-30 pounds of bamboo in one day. In the spring, a panda may eat 100 pounds in a day. • A giant panda can peel and eat a bamboo shoot in about 40 seconds.
• In China, giant pandas are considered to be national treasures. • Giant pandas have been the symbol of the international conservation organisation WWF, or the World Wide Fund for Nature since it was founded in 1961.
• Giant pandas have a very good sense of smell. Even at night, they can find the best bamboo stalks by scent.
• Chengdu giant panda centre of breeding and research attracts almost 100,000 overseas visitors each year.
