Chengdu Panda - very busy today as local tourists enjoy the start of the summer holiday! My guide told me this was around 20% of the usual capacity and it was quite busy. Pandemic control meant that as a foreigner I had to fill in some paper work, scan a QR to get the local green QR health code and show my passport.
