Chengdu Giant Panda Research Base Ticket

Meet Giant Pandas in Chengdu

Explore the sprawling Chengdu Giant Panda Research Base, covering approximately 3,570 mu. The park features diverse panda enclosures and viewing areas nestled amidst lush greenery and bamboo forests, allowing you to observe the pandas' daily lives up close. Note that panda activity can vary depending on weather, temperature, and individual panda condition. They may spend more time resting indoors during hot weather, so enjoy a leisurely visit.


Start Your Journey from the South or West Gate

Choose between the South Gate (South Gate) or the **West Gate (West Gate)** based on your preferred viewing style. The South Gate offers convenient access to the main panda viewing areas, while the West Gate allows you to explore the newly expanded sections first, often with fewer crowds.

Official guidance suggests using the West Gate during busy periods to reduce waiting times. Both gates provide visitor centers and amenities like stroller and wheelchair rentals.


Navigate the Vast Base with the Shuttle

Opt for the tourist shuttle to comfortably traverse the expansive panda base. The current official shuttle fee is ¥30 per person. Children under 6 years old or under 1.3m in height ride for free if they do not occupy a seat. One adult can hold one child for free.
