Seeking Giant Pandas in China

As of October 2026, 60 venues in 51 Chinese cities keep giant pandas on public view. Four are breeding and research bases, nine are panda parks or panda houses, and 47 are zoos or wildlife parks.

This page gathers information that changes rarely. Details were collected in October 2026 and may have changed since. Tickets, opening hours and reservations are not listed here, so contact each venue or check its official website for accurate information.

Pins mark venues open to visitors in October 2026. Figures are giant pandas on record at each venue, including animals resting or kept off display, so the number on view on a given day can be lower. Panda houses close for renovation and animals move between venues.

Sichuan holds about two thirds of the pandas on record at these venues (454 of 673+, October 2026). The map shows every venue. The city lists below open each city guide, and the route lists open the day trips, sight guides and collections that start from the same cities.
