The Giant Panda Research Centre was founded in 1978 to try and save pandas from extinction.

First discovered 100 years ago there are now only a 1000 pandas left in the world. Half of those are in captivity. Panda preservation is a major concern to the Chinese. Anyone caught killing a panda can expect to be executed.
“Here is Chan Mae”
“Chan Mae, Hey Chan Mae, Oh! What big paws you have. Oh! Look at you. Oh…..Wow..!”
Chan Mae was only a year old, his teeth are not yet long enough to be dangerous.
“This is the quintessential China experience wrestling with a real live panda bear.”
Beyond the crowds China still has dramatic open spaces.

This is Devin Gallagher with intheknowtraveler.com and today I’m standing with Skipp Munns of Viking River Cruises and for starters what should people know about taking a cruise.”

“Well taking a river cruise is different than taking an ocean cruise because taking an ocean cruise, you know you take along Bingo and dancing girls and all that sort of stuff. In a river cruise the destination is the destination, not the ship. If you’ve been on an ocean cruise you’re gonna recognize our cabins, except we have great big windows that open right on to the river. But we pull right in to the hearts of towns in Europe and Russia and China

Welcome to Tunisia, I’m Jon Haggins. I’m here for the Sahara Festival.

Tunisia’s located on the North coast of Africa along the Mediterranean Sea. Tunisia’s surrounded by Algeria and Libya. Its a mosaic of people from the North to the South from the West to the East. Tunisia is the size of Florida. Its topography consists of desert cities, Roman ruins and mountains that are waiting to be explored. This is a spectacular celebration where I dine with new friends in a ‘wadi’ under a tent. I’m Jon Haggins, I’m here in Tunisia at the Tamersa Hotel and its an incredible experience.

This is watchmojo.com and I’m Louise and will be profiling Vancouver.

A pretty sophisticated and ethnically diverse place. It has consistently made it as one of the top places to live in the world. Why is that? Where did it start? It was all at the Hudson’s Bay Company for trading and finding gold along the Fraser River that put it on the map in the first place. A trail to the Burrard Inlet was built, the first of its kind along with it for the Canadian Federation came a sailor by the name Captain John Gassyjack Dighton.

Saint Cristobal Hill, located in the district of Remo reaches 400mtrs above sea level.

From its summit you can enjoy fantastic views of the whole of the city of Lima. To reach St. Cristobal you can take a bus called an Urmanito which makes its way through the main streets of the historic city centre before getting to the top of the hill. The bus stop is very near Government Palace and there are usually plenty of tour agents on hand at both the Main Square and St.Martin Square. The price of the tour is very reasonable between 5 and 8 solnuevos depending on the competition.

Hi! My name is Melissa Schenk on behalf of expertvillage.com today we’re discussing cruise travelling tips.

Now we’ve discussed packing let’s get into some proper cruise etiquette because this is very important. When you’re cruising on a ship it is called a ship not a boat a ship especially your crew will get very upset if they hear you call it a boat. So always refer to it as a ship that you’re travelling on. It is also referred to either a she or a her if you’re discussing the ship that you’re on perhaps in the port of call.
