    Raymond46 Q: Is there any restaurants inside SanXingDui? 2012.11.11

    A: There is no restaurant inside the museum , there is only a very small place selling drinks and some snack packets However around the back of the museum there is a restaurant which is indicated I believe on the entrance ticket/postcard.

    SunriseSki Q: What are conditions in Bifengxia Panda Base, how pandas are kept there - in caves, in wild, etc? I need to understand if this parks suits our "wildlife" photography idea. In Wolong pandas can be photorgaphed in a way with no signs of human activity, that is why we choose Wolong last time. 2011.7.29

    A: Bifengxia (it means Green Peak Canyon in Chinese), is situated 10 kilometers from Ya'an City, 150 kilometers from Chengdu. There are 3 parts in Bifengxia scenic site: Bifengxia Mountain Park, Bifengxia Wildlife Park and Bifengxia Panda Bears Research Base Center. Bifengxia Panda Bears Research Base Center is owned and operated by China Conservation and Research Center (Wolong) for the Giant Panda, is the branch of Wolong Panda Center. The base divided into 4 function areas: Raising and Bredding area, Office area, Bambaoo plantation area, Training area for panda be released into the wild (training in simulated wild environments). Of course there are human activities here, but I think you can find some place fit for your photograph anyway.

    Sara C Q: Hi. Is it a good time to visit Chengdu from 30/11/09 to 4/12/09? If not, which part of China will be good to visit? 2009.9.29

    A: If your destination is Chengdu city only , your travel dates are ok. But Jiuzhai valley and Huanglong area will be closed for visit that time. December is cold in most parts of China. As long as the sites are not closed for visit, it's no problem.
