Ocean Park celebrated the second birthday of Hong Kong's beloved giant panda twins, Jia Jia and De De, on Saturday. However, this could be their last joint celebration, as the pandas are expected to need to live separately as they grow older. Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism Rosanna Law highlighted the significance of this year's event, urging the public to cherish the special moments before the pandas part ways.
Law reminisced about the twins' early days, noting their swift growth from tiny babies to 60-kilogramme adults. The pandas have become increasingly agile and playful, yet they are already maturing into young adults. Ocean Park is commemorating the pandas' birthdays with a series of panda-themed events, including a towering bun display and a photo area featuring over 60 sculptures. These festivities will continue until the end of August.
