Giant Pandas Return to Washington D.C. After Long Absence
Washington D.C. is set to welcome two new giant pandas from China, Bao Li and Qing Bao, marking the return of these beloved animals to the National Zoo after an 11-month absence. The pandas have arrived at Dulles International Airport and are being transported to the zoo, where they are expected to become significant attractions. With the arrival of these panda diplomats, local businesses are also anticipating a boost in tourism. The National Zoo has prepared special accommodations, including new murals and hammocks, to provide a comfortable environment for the pandas.
