As the autumn breeze blows, fallen leaves create a poetic scene. Visitors stroll beneath the ginkgo trees, stepping on a "golden carpet," as if they are wandering through a painting.
On November 2, the Giant Panda House at Beijing Zoo reopened. The facility has been "customized" based on the individual differences of the animals and the actual conditions of the exercise area.

The overall renovation maximizes the use of space, allowing visitors to observe the animals' various behaviors from different angles.
