Watching pandas is the main thing, and there are many other things to watch. The one that must be clocked in is our landmark building - Internet celebrity Panda Tower. As a new landmark building in Chengdu, it is located at the highest point of the base. The tower is 69.8 meters high and has 11 floors. It looks like a big bamboo shoot, and the inside looks like a blooming hibiscus flower. There are 81 platforms inside for tourists to look at the base from multiple angles. landscape.
There is also an art museum (new museum) located in the dense forest area of the new district, which uses emerging exhibition methods such as multi-sensory interaction, lighting installations, interactive installations, and thermal induction to create immersive exhibition scenes for tourists.
The Panda Base New Area plans to set up science popularization exhibition boards and interactive facilities with rich content and various forms in the four major areas. While watching giant pandas, tourists can learn about giant pandas and enhance their interactive experience. In festivals related to animal and environmental protection, there will also be themed science popularization activities for tourists of different ages, such as interactive lectures, parent-child science popularization, and mystery games and other educational and entertaining activities.
If you are tired of playing, you can also go to the musical - "Panda": The scene of magical animals represented by giant pandas coexisting harmoniously, sharing nature, and loving life in this beautiful and rich land in Chengdu, Sichuan is vividly displayed to the audience before. Through the form of musicals, it reflects the livable style of Chengdu, Sichuan and the simple and comfortable life of the local people.
From the perspective of the total area, it has increased from 1035 mu to 3570 mu, an expansion of 2.5 times. During the expansion, the original topography and landforms were fully followed and used, and the multi-level landscape belts of mountain valleys formed by mountain gullies and streams were used to create 11 giant panda venues, multiple science popularization venues, and tourist walking streets and other places to visit. After the expansion project is finally completed, it can accommodate no less than 180 giant pandas, red pandas, golden monkeys and other companion animals. Up to now, 67 giant pandas and 43 red pandas have lived in the "new home" of the expansion area, and there will be golden monkeys and other rare animals waiting for your arrival.
Are the supporting facilities in the new area perfect?
In terms of design, the new area is equipped with sufficient tourist service facilities in accordance with the 5A scenic spot standard. It not only provides basic facilities such as sightseeing cars and tourist toilets, but also provides a large number of tourist service facilities in the hill commercial street, export commercial street and sporadic commercial buildings in each area. The planned business formats include catering, souvenir sales, postal services, cinemas, theaters, extended education, etc., which can meet the needs of tourists in terms of quantity. After nearly a year of operation, in response to the actual problems of the large area and uneven distribution of supporting facilities in the new area, the base has added a number of beverage vending machines, direct drinking water machines, and shared convenient service facilities in the new area to improve the tourist experience. The next step is the base It will also be further supplemented and improved in terms of tourist rest facilities, consulting service facilities, and tour guide facilities, in order to meet the needs of tourists.
The expanded Chengdu Panda Base will help Chengdu build a demonstration site for harmonious coexistence between man and nature, improve conditions for the protection of giant panda scientific research, protect biodiversity, fully demonstrate the brand value, cultural value and economic value of giant pandas, and shape the "Tianfu 39th National Congress of Tianfu". Walking in Sichuan in comfort" cultural tourism brand. In 2022, the expansion area will gradually open new formats and new projects such as Panda Art Museum, IMAX Cinema, Panda Theater, etc., to meet the needs of tourists for eating, drinking, shopping and entertainment while watching giant pandas.
First, it is more conducive to scientific research and protection of pandas. As a national protected animal, giant pandas are docile, attractive in appearance and cute in action, and are deeply loved by the people. However, with the continuous increase in the number of giant pandas, problems such as high population density and insufficient improvement of animal welfare in the breeding and management of giant pandas in the old areas of the base have become increasingly obvious. The level of scientific research and protection of giant pandas in the base effectively guarantees the welfare of animals in the park.
Second, it is more conducive to improving the people's sense of happiness and gain. Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and the principal social contradiction has been transformed into the contradiction between the people's ever-growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development. At present, tourism has become a rigid demand for a better life of the people in a well-off society, and is widely favored by the people. The construction of the new base area conforms to the new trend of transformation and upgrading of the people's tourism consumption, will effectively meet the high-quality and diversified needs of the people's tourism consumption, and enhance the people's sense of happiness and gain.
The third is that it is more conducive to creating the characteristic IP of giant pandas and helping the construction of park city demonstration areas. Since its establishment in 1987, the old area of the base has achieved recognized achievements at home and abroad in terms of scientific research and protection of giant pandas, popular science education, cultural tourism, and international exchanges. The giant panda ex-situ conservation demonstration unit that has applied the promotion effect has been awarded the "National Advanced Collective of Science Popularization Work", "National Youth Science and Technology Education Base", "National Science Popularization Education Base", "National Environmental Protection Science Popularization Base", and "Cross-Strait Exchange and Cooperation Base". It undertook the "Cultural Exchange Key Project of the Central Propaganda Department" for the first time, and was awarded the title of "Global 500 Best" by the United Nations twice. The construction of the new base area will effectively enhance the image of China's tourism brand, build an internationally recognized giant panda characteristic IP, and help Chengdu speed up the construction of a world-famous cultural city and a park city demonstration area that practices new development concepts.
