Queen Margrethe and Crown Princess Mary attended the inauguration of the Panda House

On April 10, 2019, Queen Margrethe II and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark attended the inauguration of the Panda House at Copenhagen Zoo. Giant Pandas Xing Er and Mao Sun were brought to Copenhagen on April 4, 2019. The Panda House which costed 160 million Danish Kroner (£18.4 million) to build will be open to the public on April 11. Crown Princess Mary is the Patron of Copenhagen Zoo. (Crown Princess Mary wore a new pearl-embellished sweater by Oscar de le Ranta.)

On May 3, 2017, in Beijing, the Chinese Association of Zoological Gardens and Denmark’s Copenhagen Zoo signed a Research Collaboration Agreement on Giant Panda Conservation. That agreement states that two giant pandas named Xing Er and Mao Sun will be sent to Copenhagen Zoo in Denmark under a collaborative research project on giant panda conservation and breeding.
