San Diego Zoo Unveils Giant Pandas in Revamped Habitat

Yun Chuan and Xin Bao, the first pandas in the U.S. in 21 years, debut in a state-of-the-art enclosure inspired by Chinese landscapes.

The pandas arrived from China in late June and have been acclimating to their new home, Panda Ridge.
California Governor Gavin Newsom and San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria attended the grand opening ceremony.
The new habitat is four times larger than the previous one and mimics the pandas' native environment.
The pandas' arrival is part of a long-term conservation partnership between the San Diego Zoo and Chinese conservationists.
Visitors can see the pandas through timed tickets, a standby line, or special early-morning tours.
