Onto the final section of the Ya’an Bifengxia Base, the Overseas Panda Paradise! This is the furthest area into the base – I’m quite proud of myself for walking the whole base and not taking the bus, I racked up the equivalent of 99 flights of stairs according to my phone on this day! Here there are 5 visible yards, and another couple that aren’t visible (but I did spy a panda in far up the hill and through the trees!) – in these 5 yards were a total 8 pandas, and I managed to see them all. Sadly however the only view I had of Dutch-born Fan Xing was of her bum way at the back of the yard … one day I’ll have a great time seeing her, it wasn’t this day!
