The first pair of Hong Kong-born baby pandas, Elder Sister and Little Brother today (Feb. 16) will finally be ready to meet the public when they turn half a year old! They will debut with their parents Ying Ying and Le Le.
Although Ocean Park opens at 10:00 a.m., a lot of panda fans were already eager to see them and started to queue up outside the park's main entrance at around 7:00 a.m.
Due to the large number of visitors, the panda house can only accommodate about 100 people. Therefore, the Park adopts a "flow-through" admission arrangement, whereby each person is allowed to stay for about five minutes at a time. For those who do not want to spend enough time interacting with the pandas, the Park also offers a "VIP tour" every day, which allows visitors to spend more time with the pandas before the Park opens, at a cost of HK$1,500 per person, with a maximum capacity of 40 people.
The Park is also planning to webcast the lives of Elder Sister and Little Brother several times a day, so that the public can keep an eye on their development.
