US media: The farewell ceremony for the last two giant pandas in Japan, held before their return to China, attracted a large number of people to bid them goodbye. These twin pandas will leave Tokyo Ueno Zoo on January 27, having met the public for the last time previously.
They were born in Tokyo, but are still owned by China. Pandas, as symbols of China, are usually lent to other countries to enhance bilateral relations. Their departure means that Japan will have no giant pandas for the first time in over 50 years.
