Two giant pandas, You You and Jiu Jiu, arrived in south China's Guangzhou on Tuesday to join preparations for China's 15th National Games, adding a playful spark to the upcoming multi-city sporting event. The Games will be jointly hosted by Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao from November 9 to 21, followed by the 12th National Paralympic Games and the 9th National Special Olympics about two weeks later. As part of the festive buildup, the pandas were transferred from the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in Sichuan Province and settled into their new home at Guangzhou Zoological Garden by noon, accompanied by keepers and veterinarians throughout the journey. You You and Jiu Jiu are male twin pandas, born at Zoo Aquarium de Madrid in Spain on Sept 6, 2021. They returned to Chengdu in March 2024 before making their way to Guangzhou. With the arrival of the two pandas, Guangzhou Zoological Garden now has four giant pandas, with the other two being Xing Yi and Ya Yi. The zoo has prepared comfortable new homes for the twin pandas. Once they've settled into their surroundings, You You and Jiu Jiu will officially be introduced to the public. Guangzhou is planning a series of events centered around the two giant pandas and the National Games, aiming to showcase the charm of pandas and bring joy to local residents.
