The colorful fruit ice cake with summer characteristics was particularly "eye-catching", allowing the pandas to have a cool and enjoyable birthday party in the hot summer.

Pavilion C of the Panda Garden was very lively. The park invited hundreds of children and tourists to celebrate "Fufu"'s birthday. Staff in panda costumes performed a cute panda dance. Children wore cute panda hats, happily ate birthday cakes, sang happy birthday together, sent their most sincere blessings to their new partner "Fufu" and took photos. "Fufu", who was born in 2017, faced the temptation of the delicious cake. He first licked it a few times with his tongue to test it, and then simply held it, chewed it, bit it while lying down, and ate it while lying down. He was so happy that his naive foodie appearance attracted countless fans. Many "cat fans" took out their mobile phones to take photos and videos of this special "birthday boy" to celebrate his first birthday in Phoenix.
"I heard that there are giant pandas in Phoenix. I learned on the Internet that "Fufu" is having a birthday in the next few days. I brought my children over to see it during the holidays. I am very happy to have this special birthday with it. It is very meaningful to us. We also hope that they can have a good life in Phoenix." Ms. Wu, a tourist from Changsha, said excitedly.

Children under the age of 12 can enter the park for free on the day of birthday cakes, parent-child games and other birthday celebration activities.

We hope that citizens and tourists can use their personal participation in panda birthday activities to publicize the knowledge of giant panda protection, conduct popular science education about giant pandas, and help children grow small trees. Establish awareness of protecting wild animals and make everyone understand and pay more attention to giant pandas. At the same time, this panda birthday celebration event will also show the happy life of giant pandas settling in Phoenix to all parts of the country. ”
