  Following the dietitian of the Giant Panda Garden, Zhang Yongpei, a Taiwanese student from the West China Clinical Medical College of Sichuan University, put on gloves to learn how to make wowatou.

The palm is folded into a semicircle shape, the fingers are pressed to shape, and a "wowo head" is formed.

"But how did I make a hat?" The campers were amused by Zhang Yongpei.

  Ten years ago, Zhang Yongpei came to Sichuan for the first time through the 4th Tianfu Summer Camp. The spicy and delicious Sichuan cuisine and the hospitality of the Sichuanese left a deep impression on her, which also prompted her to apply for Sichuan University.

"Three years in college, this place has become my warm home. We are also cherished like 'giant pandas', and we are considering continuing to study at Sichuan University in the future." At present, she has participated in many cross-strait exchange activities such as panda summer camps. She looks forward to learning about ecological knowledge through this activity and loving the land of Sichuan even more.

  "It turns out that the giant pandas eat not only rice flour, corn flour, soybean flour, but also minerals that supplement trace elements." Wang Yifu, a Taiwanese student from Sichuan University, "cooked for giant pandas" for the first time. The giant panda pendant also swayed with his busy figure, holding the square wow head made by himself, he said with a smile: "It looks so delicious, I want to get one."

  In addition to getting up close and personal with giant pandas, the students also visited Dengshenggou in Wolong Nature Reserve.

  Not only giant pandas, but He Xiaoan, director of the Publicity Department of Sichuan Wolong International Nature Reserve Administration, also explained to everyone the relevant knowledge about the protection of various wild animals such as "the brother sleeping on the top of the giant panda - snow leopard".

Wang Shizhong, a Taiwanese student from Sichuan University, said that he knew very little about the ecological environment, and it was only during this trip that he learned that the motherland has made so many efforts in wildlife protection. Persevere and hope that we can all contribute to the protection of wildlife."

  Aba is an important water conservation area in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, as well as the home of giant pandas and an area where Tibetan and Qiang people live.

At the opening ceremony, Bai Gang, the second-level inspector of the Taiwan Affairs Office of Sichuan Province, said frankly: The original intention of this research route is to explore the protection of ecological barriers in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and experience the intangible cultural heritage of the Tibetan and Qiang nationalities.
